Suggesting to implement RFE 860: <https://sourceforge.net/p/oorexx/feature-requests/860/>. Here the
text:
Jean Louis Faucher (JLF) has posted a very interesting idea on the RexxLA
member's list about
propagating numeric settings to invoked routines and methods using a new
"::options" directive
option.
He pointed at the motivation and how one can implement this (coming from his
experimental
version named "executor", based on ooRexx 4.2):
*
Motivation and explanations:
https://github.com/jlfaucher/executor/blob/master/sandbox/jlf/_changes.md#6numeric-digits-propagate
*
Implemenation diff:
https://github.com/jlfaucher/executor/commit/e81877a2e1bb81420007087ed0584f7ed57034a6
JLF's implementation uses "::options digits propagate 30", but implies to
propagate all numeric
settings to the called routine and method. Josep Maria Blasco (JMB)
suggested to name this
"::options numeric settings propagate", also "::options numeric propagate"
got suggested.
What do you think? Any comments?
