- After a few hours of swearing at AmigaVisions DataBase features, I decided
- that there had to be some other bug in AmigaVision that was causing my
- problems.
-
- Here is a list of bugs I've found since I started using AmigaVision
- this week.
-
- Variable tests and initialization fail. Definately fails with
- integers... I haven't tested to see if the string tests and
- assignments work or not.
-
- Examples:
- Counter=0
- Counter==OtherInteger
- Symptoms:
- Counter not even recognized as a variable at times.
- IfThen and IfElse fail to execute condition PART of the
- time.
- >= and <= *seem* to have worked so far.
- Workaround:
- Add spaces around *all* operators to make the problem go
- away.
- The problem seemed to be cured by placing a space *after*
- the operator, but put spaces on both sides to be safe.
- Examples:
- Counter = 0
- Counter == OtherInteger
-
-
- Several functions do not work at all. I haven't used it long
- enough to know all of them yet, but there are two that have definate
- problems.
- inc() and dec() seem to have no function.
- Examples:
- inc(Integer)
- dec(Integer)
- Symptoms:
- Variables don't get incremented or decremented.
- Workaround:
- Do the obvious... don't use them. Add one or subtract one
- from the variable.
- Examples:
- Integer = Integer + 1
- Integer = Integer - 1
-
-
- I posted these bugs here in hopes it will help some of you out there that use
- AmigaVision.
- I cannot seem to mail dirrectly to CBM's bug reports address so someone
- should forward them.
-
- The Version of AmigaVision I use is V1.7 Z.
