undefined symbol 'SM_3057'.

I know the strRecord should be before strSchema but the intersting thing is, if I change the order *schema.strSchema still workes

Code: Select all

Structure strVTable
	*vtable
EndStructure

Structure strSchema Extends strVTable
	name.s
	Map types.i()
	List *records.strRecord()
EndStructure

Structure strRecord Extends strVTable
	Map *entries()
	*schema.strSchema
EndStructure

Change order of structures ...

Code: Select all

Structure strVTable
	*vtable
EndStructure

Structure strRecord Extends strVTable
  Map *entries()
	*schema.strSchema
EndStructure

Structure strSchema Extends strVTable
	name.s
	Map types.i()
	List *records.strRecord()
EndStructure

Before using a structure in a structure, it should first be defined

[HeX0R]

but shouldn't we expect a useful error message than at least?

[Fred]

This one should work

[Cyllceaux]

This one should work

What should work? The code or the useful error message?

For me it is not a problem but both would be nice

It confused me also

I think possibly the problem here is that the PB compiler doesn't always validate a structure used in a pointer element, so therefore when it doesn't validate, it gets passed to the C compiler, or assembler.

For instance, this undefined structure compiles without any errors.

Code: Select all

Structure strVTable
	*vtable.mystructure
EndStructure

Before using a structure in a structure, it should first be defined

strRecord uses strSchema and strSchema uses strRecord. Shouldn't this be illegal in any order?

Not with pointers.

[Fred]

It shouldn 't have any error, your code is supported. That's why it compiles but the asm is wrong somehow.

Ah yes, my fault.

[Cyllceaux]

just for me... is it a bug or not?
I created that thread in "Codingquestion".
Someone moved it to the bug section and @kiffi moved it back zu "Codingquestion".

Now I'm confused

[Fred]

it's a bug
