This code works fine when I put it in the REPL. I'm not sure what I'm missing here and why it's not seeing my boolean expression. Any body else, possibly with a sharper eye then me see anything wrong?
int value = -1;
string textColor = null;
textColor = ( value < 0 ) ? "red" : "green";

I'd say that's a bug. You might want to report it the Support folks.

8,794 PointsThanks Steven. That did the trick. I agree it still feels like a bug however. I'll go ahead and report this one.
