[augeas-devel] How to insert empty nodes in Augeas trees?

[Mol, Xavier (SCC)]

Hello Augeas experts,

is there a way to insert empty nodes in an Augeas tree? I've made a lens, that expects an empty line as last part (Util.empty), which works fine with existing files. However, when inserting a new node in the tree with that lens, the closing empty line is missing. Do I need to have a labelled node in the tree without value or children, that simply puts an empty line in the resulting string instead?

Thank you for your time,
Xavier.
