Standard library function read_bool does not support whitespace or capitalization

[stxue1]

The WDL spec says read_boolean is whitespace and case insensitive when calling read_bool.

However, MiniWDK is unable to run the following workflow:

version 1.1

task read_bool {
  command <<<
  printf "  true  \n" > true_file
  printf "  FALSE  \n" > false_file
  >>>

  output {
    Boolean b1 = read_boolean("true_file")
    Boolean b2 = read_boolean("false_file")
  }
}

Only when removing the whitespace and lowercasing the values does the WDL work.

version 1.1

task read_bool {
  command <<<
  printf "true" > true_file
  printf "false" > false_file
  >>>

  output {
    Boolean b1 = read_boolean("true_file")
    Boolean b2 = read_boolean("false_file")
  }
}
