Description Pierre-Charles David

Build Identifier: 20100603-0907

Given a : A with a multi-valued EString feature f, the test

[if (a.f = 'foo')]

can never be true as e.f is a collection and 'foo' a scalar. If it can be detected at compile-time, raising a warning would help the user to fix it. 

Ideally a quick fix would be provided to rewrite the test as

[if (a.f->includes('foo')]

Reproducible: Always
