Hi, I saved the default settings of 'ptop' to a file using the following
ptop -g ptop.cfg Now using that config file with the -c parameter and not specifying it at all should give me the same results, but it does! Anybody that can shed some light on this. I'm in the process of creating a Borland Object Pascal coding standards config file and came across this stumbling block. Here is how I used the ptop application with the defaults and defaults generated config file: 1) ptop test3.pp test3_out.pp 2) ptop -c ptop.cfg test3.pp test3_out.pp Here is the content of the test3.pp file -------------------[ test3.pp ]-------------------------- procedure TestTryProc; begin try ShowMessage ('Start'); try ShowMessage ('trying'); try ShowMessage ('still trying'); finally ShowMessage ('going...'); end; except ShowMessage ('except'); end; finally ShowMessage ('Finally!'); end; end; -------------------[ end ]-------------------------- Here is the output of 1) above. Notice the difference in indentation of the try/finally and try/except blocks in 1) and 2). ----------[ no config file specified ]------------------ Procedure TestTryProc; Begin Try ShowMessage ('Start'); Try ShowMessage ('trying'); Try ShowMessage ('still trying'); Finally ShowMessage ('going...'); End; Except ShowMessage ('except'); End; Finally ShowMessage ('Finally!'); End; End; ------------------------[ end ]--------------- .. and here is the output of 2) above - both should have been the same. ----------[ default generated config file specified ]------------------ Procedure TestTryProc; Begin Try ShowMessage ('Start'); Try ShowMessage ('trying'); Try ShowMessage ('still trying'); Finally ShowMessage ('going...'); End; Except ShowMessage ('except'); End; Finally ShowMessage ('Finally!'); End; End; ------------------------[ end ]--------------- -- Graeme Geldenhuys There's no place like S34° 03.168' E018° 49.342' _______________________________________________ fpc-devel maillist - fpc-devel@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-devel
