Case with a negative integer value not compiling

Post by xeon »

Hi all! Loooooong time inactive ... good to be back here :)

I dunno if I don't remember well or is just a bug. I'm trying to compile a script with a case like this

Code: Select all

case (variable)
       0: <some code>
       
       1: <some code>
      -1: <some code>
       2: <some code>
endcase
Well, ecompile is complaining about the line with the -1 as comparison value. Or just any negative value, for the matter.
Is it a bug in ecompile?

I can confirm the issue. I even tried enclosing the -1 in parenthesis and still received the error.

Ciao Yukiko! How long :)

Thanks for confirming! Was wondering if I was missing out something obvious ...
