Subject: List declaration inside a META directive
Hello, It seems one cannot declare a list inside a META directive, TT breaks with an 'unexpected token ([)' error. (tried with 2.15 and 2.18) To reproduce: perl -MTemplate -e 'my $t = Template->new; $t->process("foo.tt2") || die($t->error)' In foo.tt2: --<snip>-- [% META foo = [ 'bar' ] %] --</snip>-- -> file error - parse error - foo.tt2 line 1: unexpected token ([) Regards, Renaud Drousies

That's the correct behaviour (even if it is less than useful). It's a limitation of the parser that we're using in TT2. It'll be made better in TT3.
