Re: Two SB6 minor problems
Hi John,
Thank you for the info. I have fixed the [SB5] issue in our internal source
codes.
It would be great if you could find a pattern to reproduce this problem. I
received a similar report some days ago, but cannot reproduce this here on
our machines :-(
Thanks again,
Friedrich

Re: Two SB6 minor problems
Friedrich,
I have had the same problem as John with the last line 'END' being commented
out. I uncomment it and all is fine. I'll make a few changes recompile and
behold, the line is commented out again.
I havent been able to develop a pattern, but will try again, now that my
install is pretty much completed.

Skip,
Thank you! I think something sends a "comment-out event" to the Script
Editor. But I have no idea what triggers it.
Item in review.

Re: Two SB6 minor problems
Hi Friedrich,
This has happened to me quite a lot in SB6. It never happened in SB5. So far,
the only pattern I can see is that it seems to happen after I have saved the
project and exited SB6 and later reopen the project. The result is always the
same, the last 'End' statement is commented out and I don't see/realize it
until I try to compile and get the not enough End statements error.

Re: Two SB6 minor problems
Hi John,
Very, very strange. 60%-70% of my time is spent in the SB6 IDE, but I have
never seen this :-(
So it must be a very specific thing that causes this. I'll check the
save/open project functions now.
Thanks,
Friedrich

Re: Two SB6 minor problems
I am using the included script quite often.
Changes the output directory and the path to licensfil.tps.
It comments out the last line and/or the install licensfil line app. every
3.th time.
Try to se dear Friederich, about you can get the same result.
Its a bit frightening, for if it comments out lines randomly, I will not be
able to see it as easy as on this install.

Re: Two SB6 minor problems
Hi Edvard,
Thanks for the information. I have tried to reproduce this error since some
days.
It always comments out the last line, nothing else. The good think is that
the compiler catches this.
I'll keep you posted.
Thanks,
Friedrich

Unfortunately its not my experience.
I have had line 95 commenteed out several times - And thats a install files
line.
+ the last line as other users, which the compiler catches.
I catch line 95 as well, because I only install one file.
If the same thing happens to one of my bigger APP's, which has 20-30 lines
of install, I won't find out before a customer complains.
Good luck with your search for the reason - It loks quite difficult for
minor programmers than you to find.... :-) !

Re: Two SB6 minor problems
It was impossible to reproduce this at will, but I hope it's fixed now. I
think it was caused by a combination of three minor bugs.
The "comment-out" issue can happen (in SB5 and SB6) if the include script is
larger than the main script.
