If I run this paragraph:
001: PA
002: RUN LOCAL.SOURCE DAVE \
003: LITERAL 'A' \
004: FIELD1 \
005: LITERAL 'ENTER SOMETHING,1-30X' \
006: FIELD2 \
007: EVAL IF STU.CLASS = 'FR' THEN '1' ELSE '2' \
008: FIELD3
and enter ABC in response to the inline prompt, program DAVE sees the following
command line:
RUN LOCAL.SOURCE DAVELITERAL 'A'FIELD1LITERAL ''ABC''FIELD2
EVAL IF STU.CLASS = 'FR' THEN '1' ELSE '2'FIELD3
Note that ABC is surrounded by pairs of single quotes.
If move the EVAL line to a spot earlier in the paragraph
001: PA
002: RUN LOCAL.SOURCE DAVE \
003: LITERAL 'A' \
004: FIELD1 \
005: EVAL IF STU.CLASS = 'FR' THEN '1' ELSE '2' \
006: LITERAL 'ENTER SOMETHING,1-30X' \
007: FIELD2 \
008: FIELD3
my program sees:
RUN LOCAL.SOURCE DAVELITERAL 'A'FIELD1 EVAL IF STU.CLASS = 'FR' THEN
'1' ELSE '2'LITERAL 'ABC'FIELD2FIELD3
Note that ABC is surrounded by single quotes rather than pairs of single quotes.
Is this difference in behavior to be expected? Am I missing something obvious?
