xparse: Starred commands and IfBooleanTF



The Next CEO of Stack Overflowxparse recursion and/or special numeric specificationsWeird xparse issue involving splitlistReusing the current argument's number with xparseBehavior of xparse and “token”-type argumentTransforming a list with xparseDefining a command to define commands where the name uses the argument using xparseConverting xparse commands to htmlProblem with subscripts in custom xparse commands from foreign filesxparse SplitList parameter expansionPrevent xparse from stripping braces?

In some longer redefinition of existing code I am using a construct like



documentclass{book}
usepackage{xparse}


makeatletter
NewDocumentCommand{mymacro}{smO{}m}{
defblabla{#1}%
% several lines later in another macro I use
IfBooleanTF{blabla}{}{}
}

makeatother

begin{document}
mymacro*{}{}
end{document}


which works fine with texlive 2018 (xparse 2018-10-17) and lualatex.
However, when trying with texlive 2019 (xparse 2019-03-05)



I get the following error



! Undefined control sequence.
<argument> LaTeX3 error:
Invalid use IfBooleanTF {blabla }
l.15 mymacro*{}{}


What would be the correct way of doing something like this with the new xparse version?

  • Why were you saving the argument in a macro in the first place?

  • @JosephWright I later redefine another macro where I use blabla. I did not know another way of doing something like this.
