Michael Beckerle commented on DAFFODIL-1475:
--------------------------------------------
Note that this behavior is to be different. The spec will be corrected to allow
%ES; alone as a delimiter, but only when not lengthKind delimited.
> Runtime terminator containing isolated %ES; provides poor diagnostic.

> Key: DAFFODIL-1475
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DAFFODIL-1475
> Project: Daffodil
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Back End, Diagnostics, Middle "End", Usability
> Affects Versions: 2.0.0
> Reporter: Michael Beckerle
> Assignee: Steve Lawrence
> Priority: Major
>
> See test_emptyStringEntityTermInExpression_01
> (which I recently modified to be a negative test, looking for a message about
> the incorrect use of %ES; in the terminator.)
> If you have an expression for a terminator, and the expression returns a
> string containing %ES; by itself, that's not allowed (you can't "turn off"
> delimiters at runtime by specifying a delimiter to be empty string)
> This should be a runtime SDE.
