Subject: [NTG-context] \doifemptyelse issue?
Date: Mon, 13 Nov 2023 12:10:49 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <33A6C923-9BD4-4643-9082-C5768FE4ABC8@scorecrow.com> (raw)

The following MWE gives "false false" instead of "false true". I'm sure this used to work (18 months or more ago!) as I found it when re-processing an old document.

---start---
\setdataset [DS] [a=aaaa]
\setdataset [DS] [a=]

\starttext

:\datasetvariable{DS}{1}{a}: \crlf
:\datasetvariable{DS}{2}{a}: \crlf

\doifemptyelse{\datasetvariable{DS}{1}{a}}{true}{false}

\doifemptyelse{\datasetvariable{DS}{2}{a}}{true}{false}
  
\stoptext
---end---

There is a work-around using \doiftext instead as that seems to work okay with recalled dataset values but I thought I'd raise it.
