This isn't an earthshaking thing, but it was unexpected and therefore noteworthy, to me at least.
The home page of one of our client's sites had some code like this in an .adp:
<!-- if @user_currency@ eq pounds> some stuff </if>
<if @user_currency@ eq dollars> other stuff </if-->
For those not familiar, this is the OpenACS templating syntax. And yes, it should have been an if-else, but this client writes his own display code and I avert my eyes whenever possible. ;)
The above was fine in AOLserver 3.3, but when I upgraded the site to 4.0.7 I was getting a "no such error" variable on a multiple that I knew was being set, one that was first referenced after the above block of code. After some trial and error I finally figured out that if I changed the code to this, it was ok:
<!-- if @user_currency@ eq pounds> some stuff </if-->
<!--if @user_currency@ eq dollars> other stuff </if-->
I'm not exactly sure what caused the problem - a difference in how the .adps were parsed, I imagine, but I didn't get into that level of detail.
Dossy, do you want me to file a bug on this? Or would you call the original construct a bug, and the fact that it no longer works an improvement?
