Makes sense to me.
(though I don't see any way of using the string result *and* the
boolean result from a single call at present, one might happen in the future)
This is the advantage of the conditional, it can just set $value, a
variable which is already used generically like this.
Hmm. This gets ugly on a couple of counts.
- If it's only available as a conditional then you
can only use it in a conditional context - which is
a pain when what you really wanted was the expansion.
- OK, perhaps we support both methods?
- Syntax as a conditional doesn't easily handle variable
numbers of arguments:
${if <cond> {yes}{no}} has troubles with the difference
between <cond> == <acl {name}> and <cond> == <acl {name}{arg}>
(is {yes} an arg for the acl or for the if?)
- wrap <cond> in { } ? ugly, but matches condition saslauthd
- don't wrap name or args in { } ? how to parse?
- wrap name + args in { } but space-sep within?
e.g. ${if acl {name arg1 arg2} {yes}{no}}
also nonstandard, but matches acl modifier "acl = name arg1 arg2..."
I was partway though coding the last option when I noticed saslauthd.
