[Implemented] CompilerIf (Subsystem("DirectX9") And

[IceSoft]

Get an error message with this code:

Code: Select all

CompilerIf  (Subsystem("DirectX9") = 0 And Subsystem("DX9") = 0)

Will be usefull if this will be working or better: nativ DirectX7 will be also a subsystem (the default one).

So I can easily detect which subsystem is currently used

A new compiler directive: CompilerElseIf is helping too.

Here a correct check which subsystem is used (with CompilerElseIf):

Code: Select all

CompilerIf Subsystem("DirectX9") 
  MessageRequester("", "DirectX 9") 
CompilerElseIf Subsystem("DX9") 
  MessageRequester("", "DX 9") 
CompilerElseIf Subsystem("OpenGL") 
  MessageRequester("", "OpenGL") 
CompilerElse 
  MessageRequester("", "DirectX 7") 
CompilerEndIf

And/Or/XOr are runtime operations that can't be used with CompilerIf.

You can rewrite the first code like this:

Code: Select all

CompilerIf (Subsystem("DirectX9") = 0) + (Subsystem("DX9") = 0) = 2

And the second code like this:

Code: Select all

CompilerIf Subsystem("DirectX9")
  MessageRequester("", "DirectX 9")
CompilerElse : CompilerIf Subsystem("DX9")
  MessageRequester("", "DX 9")
CompilerElse : CompilerIf Subsystem("OpenGL")
  MessageRequester("", "OpenGL")
CompilerElse
  MessageRequester("", "DirectX 7") 
CompilerEndIf : CompilerEndIf : CompilerEndIf

@Trond,
Sweet...but all is only a workaround.
For me it looks like some guys here don't want the new compiler directive: CompilerElseIf.

Feature requests are not bugs, so this is the wrong forum.

Read my first entry of this thread and you will find why I have written it here in the bug section.
