ControllerLinkBuilder.linkTo dont encode slash in parameters

I have a code like this

ControllerLinkBuilder.linkTo(ControllerLinkBuilder.methodOn(MyClass.class)
                               .MyMethod(param1, param2, param3));

when my param3 is equal to "aa/bb" i want to have na encoded url who will contain "aa%2Fbb" but the slash is not encoded and i get a value containing "aa/bb"

and when i try to encode it and give the methode and encoded parameter like this

String encodedParam3= java.net.URLEncoder.encode(param3, "UTF-8");
ControllerLinkBuilder.linkTo(ControllerLinkBuilder.methodOn(MyClass.class)
                               .MyMethod(param1, param2, encodedParam3));

ControllerLinkBuilder.linkTo will encode the "%" in my encodedParam3 to "%25" and i will get a value containing "aa%252Fbb"

I am using spring hateoas 0.23.0-RELEASE

Start by reproducing the issue through ControllerLinkBuilder.linkTo with a parameter value of "aa/bb", then compare the result with the pre-encoded "%2F" case. Trace the ControllerLinkBuilder encoding path and verify that the slash is encoded once without double-encoding the percent sign; done means the generated URL contains "aa%2Fbb".
