Strange behaviour of match{} expressions

[AndreVanDelft]

TemplateNode: matching on T_n_ary_op (and T_1_ary_op) does not work; therefore FTTB those classes have their own implementation of kindAsString (see the comments in the file)

Can you please specify more precisely where does it not work? As I can see, matching on T_n_ary_op works perfectly on line 339 of ScriptExecutor.scala.

[AndreVanDelft]

E.g. here, a T_1_aryop is matched by "case ":

  def kindAsString(t: TemplateNode): String = 
    t match {
      // matching on T_n_ary_op (and T_1_ary_op) does not work;
      // therefore FTTB those classes have their own implementation of kindAsString
      case T_1_ary_op(kind: String, _) => kind
      case T_n_ary_op(kind: String, _) => kind

      case T_code_normal            (_) => "{}"
      ...
      case _ => getClass.getName
    }

So what is the problem?

The match

case T_n_ary_op(kind: String, _) =>

won't work, 'cause second argument is vararg. Varargs should be matched as follows:

case T_n_ary_op(kind: String, _*) =>

I'll try to get rid of auxiliary "kind" methods a bit later.
