IF THEN bug? (no showstopper)

[Moru]

Code (glbasic) Select Expand

IF a = TRUE THEN
DEBUG "hello"

This no longer makes the compiler complain, it used to, right? No showstopper, just caused some confusion tonight :-)

interesting.
Just tested it, but the compiler will handle this as two separate command lines. Means line "DEBUG "hello" is executed in any case, even if a = FALSE
I'm not sure if this worked before.

Last version I have is 7.242(i think) and that would for sure crash if I left an open THEN.  I try not to use it either.

I put in a request ages ago that THEN become an optional keyword for multi line conditions. Gernot wasn't keen on the idea, so I doubt it's been implemented.

IF xxx
   yyy
ENDIF

_OR_

IF xxx THEN yyy

No then for multiline IF

[Quentin]

that's clear, but it wasn't the question
We were just wondering about that a command like

Code (glbasic) Select Expand


IF a = TRUE THEN

without anything following the THEN doesn't cause an error

[Kitty Hello]

Because newline and ; are a command in my parser. I'll add an error. Doh!
