Just to show what I mean, a wrong evaluation of something like
pt.spcln equ 16*4+pt.spmax*2+pt.blmax*2 ; length of sprite cache
would have unhealthy effects.
Thanks to all those who commented on the type of "expression" which would be preferred in GWASS. I have just completed inserting a new option in GWASS which is to use normal expressions, complete with undetermined labels, brackets and proper precedence of operators.
For those interested a beta test version of GWASS should soon be on the SQLUG website.
Also I realised the other day that the assembly of GWASS itself uses two of the QMAC macros which form part of the SMSQ/E set. The macros have, of course, been suitably amended for GWASS.
