> No STATIC with CONST. Or maybe the compiler is more tolerant than that?
Maybe the compiler is a too much good guy :) I think that the compiler shouldn't allow to do something like that: PUBLIC FUNCTION ScanTab(IdCaption AS Integer) AS Integer DIM a AS Integer = 0 DIM b AS Integer = 0 FOR a = 1 TO TabStrip3.Count STEP 1 IF TabStrip3[(a - 1)].Caption = IdCaption THEN b = a a = TabStrip3.Count RETURN a ENDIF NEXT END Someone thought that this code is good one. Leaving aside the obvious conceptual confusion of the author, and that the routine doesn't do what it claims, it is important to note that it is possible to change the variable that controls the FOR structure, and included the return statement inside the loop. I think the compiler should not allow these things, at least for mercy through the eyes of those who are finally forced to read code like this. -- Fabián Flores Vadell www.speedbooksargentina.blogspot.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
