Hi,
I'm having problems with checking undefined entries in an array. It looks like
there may be a bug?
**Example code:**
<pre><code class="ruby">
$array = ["one", "two"]
if ($array[2] == '') {
notice("Success: '${array[0]}' '${array[1]}' '${array[2]}' ")
} else {
notice("FAILED: '${array[0]}' '${array[1]}' '${array[2]}'")
}
if ($array[2] =~ /^$/) {
notice("Success: '${array[0]}' '${array[1]}' '${array[2]}' ")
} else {
notice("FAILED: '${array[0]}' '${array[1]}' '${array[2]}'")
}
</code></pre>
**Expected output:**
<pre><code class="ruby">
notice: Scope(Class[main]): Success: 'one' 'two' ''
notice: Scope(Class[main]): Success: 'one' 'two' ''
</code></pre>
**Current Output:**
<pre><code class="ruby">
notice: Scope(Class[main]): FAILED: 'one' 'two' ''
notice: Scope(Class[main]): Success: 'one' 'two' ''
</code></pre>
>From the above, it seems that checking for an empty string fails yet a regex
>check succeeds?
Regards,
Haw
