Subject: [OASIS Issue Tracker] Commented: (OFFICE-2330) ISNONTEXT semanticsare contradictory
[ http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/OFFICE-2330?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17548#action_17548 ] Andreas Guelzow commented on OFFICE-2330: ------------------------------------------ This is simply wrong: "If X is of type Text, ISNONTEXT returns FALSE, otherwise TRUE. If X is a reference, examines what X references. References to blank cells are NOT considered text, so a reference to a blank cell will return TRUE." Note that a cell containing the empty string contains text and so ISNONTEXT returns TRUE. > ISNONTEXT semantics are contradictory > ------------------------------------- > > Key: OFFICE-2330 > URL: http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/OFFICE-2330 > Project: OASIS Open Document Format for Office Applications (OpenDocument) TC > Issue Type: Bug > Components: OpenFormula > Affects Versions: ODF 1.2 Part 2 CD 1 > Reporter: Patrick Durusau > > The semantics description of ISNONTEXT reads: > "f X is of type Text, returns TRUE, else FALSE. If X is a reference, examines what X references. References to blank cells are NOT considered text, so a reference to a blank cell will return TRUE." > Shouldn't a reference to a blank cell return FALSE? Since it is not text? > Or is the first part incorrect? > I don't know if this is describing actual application behavior so hesitate to simply change it. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
