------------------------------------------------------------------
I would not say it is a bug. It is a architectural choice not to return empty
results. I personally don't see any value in such results. Could you show some
use cases for that?

> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: CEP
> Reporter: zhangxiaoyu

> Currently, with the pattern {quote}a? {quote}and the event{quote} a1{quote},
> the result pattern is only {quote} {a1}{quote}, without the empty match.
> We wish the empty matched is also returned. And I am working on this issue
> now.
> My method is checking if there exists empty match only when the the first
> event comes(at the StartState) ——try to traverse the PROCEED edges with the
> trueFunction condition from the StartState, see if it can arrive FinalState,
> if so, add an empty list to the result.
