Subject: [OASIS Issue Tracker] Commented: (OFFICE-2059) Resolve potentialambiguity with optionality in leading "=" and "=="



    [ http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/OFFICE-2059?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16341#action_16341 ] 

Eike Rathke commented on OFFICE-2059:
-------------------------------------

The duplicated '==' equal sign is already current practice, we should not change that arbitrarily. Btw, '~' would be the union operator.
I agree that presence of a leading  '=' and the '==' recalculation option belong to the hosting language.
However, we should not remove the leading '=' and the  '==' ForceRecalc option from the OpenFormula syntax, it should be possible to properly parse an entire attribute's value (excluding a leading namespace of course) as expression. In OpenFormula we can define leading '=' and '==' as optional.

> Between statements in ODF 1.2 Part 1 where OpenFormula formulae may be hosted, and the description of the use of optional namespace prefix, leading "=", and the extra leading "==" for recalculation control, I am concerned that this situation has unresolvable ambiguities.
