Feature Requests item #3001080, was opened at 2010-05-13 08:09 Message generated for change (Tracker Item Submitted) made by bigrixx You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=684733&aid=3001080&group_id=119701 Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: Interpreter Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Rick McGuire (bigrixx) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Add a NOVALUE switch to ::OPTIONS Initial Comment: It would be nice if the ::OPTIONS instruction could switch the default behavior for uninitialized variables to be an error rather than returning the uppercase name. For large code packages, it's not really practical or desired to add SIGNAL ON NOVALUE to all executable units to trap these conditions. Since many hard to diagnose errors are caused by misspelled variable names, it would be nice if the NOVALUE behavior could be chosen on a package basis to be an error condition while debugging the code. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=684733&aid=3001080&group_id=119701 |
