Calendar event variables have default value

Hi, 

I think there is a small bug in the calendar event handler. Let me explain.. 

My user story

When a calendar entry (meeting) is starting, I would like to mute my phone. But I want to exclude the meetings where the location is set to 'DSN'. These are all-day events that remind me to work on a different work location, so they are not really 'meetings'. I have a calendar event profile with location set to '!DSN' . 

The problem

The calendar event variables are set to a default value when not present in the event.

Example: I have an active meeting entry in my calendar with title 'test3' , no location and no description.

Event variables and their value:

%CALTITLE: 'test3' 

%CALLOC: '%CALLOC'

%CALDESCR: '%CALDESCR'

A proof of this is attached as a screenshot. Also a task which writes these calendar event variables to user variables is attached. There you can see that the 'calloc' variable is actually set (last user variable) 

As a result, my calendar event profile with location set to '!DSN' is triggered when no location is set, because the location variable has a default value. This was not the case in previous releases (some weeks ago) 

Solution

I think these variables should not be set when they are not filled in the calendar event. My calendar event would then not trigger because the 'calloc' would be empty.
