Description

Take this as example (and imagine some heavy processing behind the COA object in ifEmpty):

page = PAGE
page.10 = TEXT
page.10.value = Hello world!
page.10.ifEmpty = TEXT
page.10.ifEmpty {
  cObject = COA
  cObject.1 = TEXT
  cObject.1.value = I should never 
  cObject.2 = TEXT
  cObject.2.value = be seen
}

The whole COA is processed and then discarded useless.

I understand the idea but the implementation is wrong for the "ifEmpty" function. Indeed "ifEmpty" bases itself on the PHP function "trim" which considers:


    " " (ASCII 32 (0x20)), an ordinary space.
    "\t" (ASCII 9 (0x09)), a tab.
    "\n" (ASCII 10 (0x0A)), a new line (line feed).
    "\r" (ASCII 13 (0x0D)), a carriage return.
    "\0" (ASCII 0 (0x00)), the NUL-byte.
    "\x0B" (ASCII 11 (0x0B)), a vertical tab.

as empty characters. But the check that was introduced about whether to call "ifEmpty" or not checks emptiness with the "empty" PHP function which considers:


    "" (an empty string)
    0 (0 as an integer)
    0.0 (0 as a float)
    "0" (0 as a string)
    NULL
    FALSE
    array() (an empty array)

as empty elements. This is very different from "trim" (excerpts taken from the PHP manual).

I would say the proper check should be:

$functionName === 'ifEmpty' && trim($content) !== ''
