Why does this code not stop at 'CallDebugger', if the last line is uncommented?

Code: Select all

  CompilerIf Defined (xxx, #PB_Constant) = #False
    CallDebugger
  CompilerEndIf
  
 ;Debug #xxx

Testet with:
Pb 5.51
Pb 5.60

You'd get a "constant not found" error if the last line is uncommented.

Wow, thanks for this knowledge. But this still doesn't explain why CompilerIf isn't working in this case.

Code: Select all

;#xxx not defined
CompilerIf Defined (xxx, #PB_Constant) = #False
  CallDebugger ; called
CompilerEndIf

Code: Select all

#xxx = 1 ; defined
CompilerIf Defined (xxx, #PB_Constant) = #False
  CallDebugger ; not called
CompilerEndIf

And, you're welcome!

[Josh]

And what have your two examples to do with my code? Nothing!

[Fred]

CallDebugger is a runtime function, if you uncomment the last line, you get a compilation error.

[Josh]

Sounds logical I wanted to check some compiler options at the beginning of my code like this:

Code: Select all

  CompilerIf Defined (PB_Editor_CreateExecutable, #PB_Constant) = #False
    CallDebugger
  CompilerEndIf

So I have to make some changes

Are you looking for CompilerError "my error"?
