VSQM.H - errror due to comment?
(1/1)
Dariusz Piatkowski:
Looking at this header file and found the following:
--- Code: ---...
/**********************************************************************/
/* */
/* String table IDs */
/* */
/**********************************************************************/
#define IDSNAME 10
#define IDSTITLE 20
#define IDSHELP 21 /* Help window title string
#define IDSDTLSTL 30
#define IDSQUEUE1 40
...
--- End code ---
It would appear to me that the "/* Help window title string" has an un-ended comment which actually causes all teh remaining #define's to be commented out as well.
This carries on for about 40 line of code until the following:
--- Code: ---...
#define VQINTERNALERROR 82
#define VQDRIVENOTREADY 83
#define VQBADPRIOSTR 84
#define ID_LISTBOX 90 /* Queues listbox ID
/**********************************************************************/
/* */
/* Menu IDs */
/* */
/**********************************************************************/
--- End code ---
...which despite being an un-ended comment is OK since the "/* Queues listbox IS" is followed by multi-line comment anyways which correctly ends the full comment section.
Does anyone know if this is correct? Or is this an un-documented but otherwise intentional exclusion of all these DEFINEs?
Dariusz Piatkowski:
Heck...further on I find the following:
--- Code: ---#define IDH_IDMRLSALL :ç 421
--- End code ---
That ":ç" doesn't look right to me...but is that supposed to be some kind of double-byte code character with a special meaning?
Dave Yeo:
Looks to me like typos. Probably should open an issue at Bitwise as I believe they're looking after the toolkit.
Seems no one has used the header, which I assume is for the print spool, as even the copy in the 2.1 toolkit has the same issues.
