Claus,

I might have been unclear about clear(). I meant
--> clear // clears everything, even all user defined functions and libraries is deleterious. I do not really understand how you could use prettify() if it is not in a protected autoloaded ATOMS library, since it will be deleted by your "clear" statement, with all other things?

clear() is useful to delete an explicit set of given variables. There is no project about removing it.

About your issue: may be it's time to use the new debug() debugger :)
It is hard to help without being able to see and test the code (i don't ask for it ;)
So, IMO your best way would be using debug().

Cheers
Samuel

Hi Samuel

About "clear" I looked and it's still a documented feature in 6.0:
https://help.scilab.org/docs/6.0.0/en_US/clear.html

I also revisited the 6.0 Release Notes (PDF) and it lists only these as obsolete:
Obsolete functions or features w maxfiles is now obsolete.
w isoview(xmin,xmax,ymin,ymax) is deprecated. Please use isoview("on"), replot(..) instead.
w eval3d will be removed from Scilab 6.1. Please use ndgrid instead.
w strcmpi is deprecated. Please use strcmp(..,"i")instead.
w square will be removed from Scilab 6.1. Please use gcf().axes_ size and replot instead.

... You might be right that clear is on its way out, but I don't know where to find the information.

Hello Claus,
In Scilab, clear is deleterious. As a first hint, i would try commenting it before rerunning the script.

Hi there

I've started to use the prettify functions by Pierre Vuillemin. So far so good in Scilab 5.5

Now I've started to look into Scilab 6 (not least because graphics is much faster), but I get a weird error.

If I start Scilab, first time I execute the code, I get an "Invalid buffer." message.

Second time I execute the code then I get a bad message:


--> exec('C:\Users\claus\Documents\Scilab54\z3mfit.sce', -1)
at line 93 of executed file C:\Users\claus\Documents\Scilab54\z3mfit.sce

                            'labels_font_size'  ,  3,...
                            ^^
Error: syntax error, unexpected "'", expecting "," or )


When I run my script, the first thing my code does - it clears all variables, all graphics and clears console, so it's not "old" stuff from previous run that is the problem. Or ???

The "line 93" is part of the default options in Prettify, where it says labels_font_size. It looks like this:

default_options  =  struct('title_font_size'    ,   4,...
                          'labels_font_size'   ,   3,...
                          'thicks_font_size'   ,   2,...
                          'num_format'         ,   '',...
                          'leg_font_size'      ,   3,...
                          'line_thickness'     ,   2,...
                          'xstring_font_size'  ,   2)

Can anyone spot, what is the problem?

P.S. This part of the code is in a section that is controlled by an if-statement, and even if I make sure the condition is false (so that the Prettify code is not executed), Scilab still spits out this error. It's really weird - and even weirder it doesn't get the error the first time that the code is executed.

P.S. My entire code is ca. 915 lines long + requires input data, so I prefer not to attach it to a post here in the mailing list.

Best regards,

Claus
