Please make Syntax of Protected conform to Define

Kaeru Gaman · Post by **Kaeru Gaman** » Tue Jun 16, 2009 2:30 pm

  Protected.i Font1, Font2, Font3

and

Code: Select all

Global.i Font1, Font2, Font3

produce Syntax Errors, while

Code: Select all

Define.i Font1, Font2, Font3

does not.

would be nice if the shorter version would be avaliable for Protected and Global, too.

Don't forget Static

-1

Euh... are we still allowed to use +1 -1 to indicate if we like something or not?

(I don't like this syntax change by the way, I just prefer to use -1 as opposed to typing ' I don't like this syntax change by the way '...)

I don't think it would break anything, it could just be an additional way to declare things, just like with Define.

I think it should be added for consistancy. The previous syntax would still apply and could be used as well if that was preferred.

if so, I'm sorry.
I did a search if I could find such a topic, and there was none... at least on the first pages.

Yeah I gotta say I like this idea.

If I define only a few variables I usually mix'em up, using .i, .l etc.
But when a lot of variables are defined I tend to use multiple defines,
thus splitting the defining of strings on one line and integers on one.

I want to add my backing to this request.
So, definitely +1.

Although i remember that this very same suggestion was made quite a while ago.

Don't forget about the Declare statement!

Kaeru Gaman · Post by **Kaeru Gaman** » Thu Jul 30, 2009 5:26 pm

Declare? for Procedures?
... I think that is something completely different... *BOOOM*
