Possible Bug In Case Or If
« on: February 17, 2004, 12:53:00 PM »
Playing around again and notice that this

CODE

CASE 201
 IF %dialogname% == step1dialog GOTO SETSECONDVALUE
 IF %dialogname% == step2dialog GOTO SETORIGINALVALUE
ENDCASE

Wont work in the event handler of a dialog
But this Will
CODE

CASE 201
 IF %dialogname% == step1dialog THEN
   GOTO SETSECONDVALUE
 ENDIF
 IF %dialogname% == step2dialog THEN
   GOTO SETORIGINALVALUE
 ENDIF
ENDCASE

Why not just do this

CASE 201
IF %dialogname% == step1dialog THEN
  GOTO SETSECONDVALUE
ELSE
  GOTO SETORIGINALVALUE
ENDIF
ENDCASE

ARRGGHH!!!

Please do NOT use GOTOs in CASE statements. That's like crossing the proton streams. Very bad.

Probably.... just makes me shudder wink.gif In reality, SWITCH doesn't leave anything on the IP stack, so it's probably OK.

As to the problem with single line IFs, I'm not sure what's happening there.

OK then I ask this how else are you supposed to process data and execute actions from a button press or action in a dialog box

you can use nested SWITCH statements.

If blocks should also work.
