[Info-ingres] When is an empty string an integer?

[Paul White]

I'm happy with the current behaviour in OpenROAD 6.2.

on click field1 =
{
i = integer(varchar('',1));
if i = 0 then
    message 'zero';  			/* This lines works */
else
    message 'something else';
endif;
}

I think so too. Certainly Ingres 6.2 has this behavior.
