this (Felix code calling the C system function):
unused := system("man -M "+FLX_INSTALL_DIR+Filename::sep+"man"+" flx");
does not work, whereas this:
result=system("cp -r "+FLX_INSTALL_DIR+" "+INSTALL_ROOT);
and numerous other such commands, including the invocation of gcc etc,
also work. system is defined by:
gen system(cmd:string):int= {
if ECHO==1 do println(cmd); done
var result = System::system(cmd);
if ECHO==1 do println("Result code " + str(result)); done
return result;
}
ARRRGGGG .. I know what it is... this is a bug? in Felix compiler! "unused" is
not used .. so it is optimising the call away.
But that is a BUG because "system" is a generator. Or is it?
