http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=37792 ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2005-12-31 22:08 ------- Ouch, that's pretty severe; if I had symbols foo, foobar, and foobarbaz then it would be random whether the reference @foobarbaz evaluated as (@foo)barbaz, (@foobar)baz, or as (@foobarbaz)? If that's indeed what this issue is saying, I think there needs to be either (a) a way of explicitly saying 'I meant (@foobarbaz)', or a guarantee to match the longest symbol name. The latter would still mean I couldn't express the intent (@foobar)baz, so some kind of (optional) delimiter syntax seems like the best solution. This is why Bourne-style shells support both $foo and ${foo}, for disambiguating shell variable refernces. Perhaps Clay could do the same? -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
