Error in Help/ReadFile()

Just spent some time on this, the sample is from ReadFile() in Help:

  If ReadFile(0,"Text.txt")   ; if the file could be read, we continue...
    While Eof(0) <> 0         ; loop as long the 'end of file' isn't reached
      Debug ReadString()      ; display line by line in the debug window
    Wend
    CloseFile(0)              ; close the previously opened file
  Else
    MessageRequester("Information","Couldn't open the file!")
  EndIf

The test should be:

Code: Select all

    While Eof(0) = 0

This has already been fixed two times.

Maybe it's unfixed again. I have the latest version (PureBasic_3_94_(ayay50).exe), and the Help is still wrong.

It has been fixed two times in the latest version of the help file and the fixed version hasn't been published yet.

Edit: by the way, the ayay50 thing is randomly generated to prevent link leaching to unregistred users.

The fix was done after the release of v3.94. So sorry.

Correct example is already in the online-help on www.PureArea.net
