- According to the TOOLREL_4.1 document for i4GL an END CONSTRUCT statement
- is now required when using CONSTRUCT within an INPUT statement when using
- version 4.1 of i4gl. (See lines 377,392)
-
- A program containing this code, which works using release i4gl 4.0,
- fails to execute the INPUT BY NAME ... WITHOUT DEFAULTS correctly (it
- appears to ignore the WITHOUT DEFAULTS, blanking out all fields) when run
- without the END CONSTRUCT statement on i4gl 4.1. However it gives a generic
- syntax error at compile time when the END CONSTRUCT is added.
-
- Has anybody had this problem with i4gl 4.1? I am aware of the supposed
- restriction disallowing a CONSTRUCT within an INPUT statement, but the
- program did not require the CONSTRUCT to be within another function
- under version 4.0. Any help would be appreciated.
