Strange behavior related to the decimal point / comma ¿Bug? - JoseL - 10-10-2016 11:57 AM
Hi,
I have noticed a strange behavior related to the decimal point / comma.
For example..... This simple programm:
EXPORT Test()
BEGIN
LOCAL Vx,Vy,Vz ;
FOR N FROM 1 TO 6 DO
Vx:=N;
Vy:=Vx*3;
Vz:=Vx+Vy;
MSGBOX ("Vz= " + Vz );
END;
END;
If you have in Home Settings - Digit Grouping:123,456.789
The program pass ok the Check.
No errors in the program.
But if you have in Home Setting - Digit Grouping:123.456,789
Then the program does not pass the Check.
Syntax Error in line: LOCAL Vx,Vy,Vz ;
The same applies to other lines where the comma is present.
Thanks

you have to add #pragma (usually on top of your program)
this can be done with shift-menu.
place the pragma when yo ucan compile the program (Digit Grouping:123,456.789)
after that, the your program will works in any mode.

This is correct behavior. In that mode , is not used for separating arguments in this mode so the source is incorrect.
