PureBasic Forums - English

Forgive me if this is in the wrong forum. I've searched the bug lists and I'm not sure if this is a bug or if I'm not using it right. But the debugger keeps telling me IsPack() is not a function. I have 6.21 Beta 9 installed. Anybody else having trouble with this?

Can confirm, on PB 6.21 beta 9, Windows 10 21H2.
This code does it:

PB 6.20 x64, here the function does not exist.

Thank you for confirming.

Quin,

Tried that line in a blank file in the editor and I still get the error. It must be in my install.

6.21 beta 9 windows x64 - confirmed, says does not exist.

Nope, not in your install, that line was me showing how to get the problem to happen

Aha. Thank you, Miso. I'm NOT crazy, then! Well, at least on this subject

Quin,

Sorry about that. I misread your post. Thank you for confirming.

It's in the PB Help v6.20+, but it's never been exists.

Must be an error in the documentation.

Don't think it's a doc error, it's even mentioned in the changelog. It just...doesn't work

Maybe a not yet implemented future plan. Doc went ahead. Maybe...
I use packs and I'm fond of the Is() functions, but I started to write the needed parts with 5.73, while its working as a charm, I never took a look into the packer docs, and never tried that command or had problems with my old code. It also does not autocomplete, so it is mentioned in the docs only.

Fixed.
