# Tests for the :D variable modifier, which returns the given string
# if the variable is defined.  It is closely related to the :U modifier.

.undef UNDEF

# Since DEF is defined, the value of the expression is "value", not
# "defined".
#
.if ${DEF:Dvalue} != "value"
.  error
.endif

# Since UNDEF is not defined, the "value" is ignored.  Instead of leaving the
# expression undefined, it is set to "", exactly to allow the expression to
# be used in .if conditions.  In this place, other undefined expressions
# would generate an error message.
# XXX: Ideally the error message would be "undefined variable", but as of
# 2020-08-25 it is "Malformed conditional".

.endif

# Special characters that would be interpreted differently can be escaped.
# These are '}' (the closing character of the expression), ':', '$' and '\'.
# Any other backslash sequences are preserved.
#
# The escaping rules for string literals in conditions are completely
# different though. There, any character may be escaped using a backslash.

# Like in several other places in variable expressions, when
# ApplyModifier_Defined calls Var_Parse, double dollars lead to a parse
# error that is silently ignored.  This makes all dollar signs disappear,
# except for the last, which is a well-formed variable expression.
#
.if ${DEF:D$$$$$${DEF}} != "defined"

# Any other text is written without any further escaping.  In contrast
# to the :M modifier, parentheses and braces do not need to be nested.
# Instead, the :D modifier is implemented sanely by parsing nested
# expressions as such, without trying any shortcuts. See ApplyModifier_Match
# for an inferior variant.
