didn't someone create a plugin that would scan the script code and
create declarations for undeclared vars? :-/
cheers

Menu:
Edit | Preferences | Script Editor | Variable checking by default
Why this isn't on by default is beyond me except that it would force
many programmers to clean up their code. If this had been left to me,
I wouldn't even have made it an option.
Thank god, i has not been left to you!
And you would have reaped the ire of those involved in 20 years of
xtalk legacy. ;)
For those of us who have used all the various forms of xtalk over lo
these many years, the lack of variable typing and the ability to use
variables without first declaring them is a major breakthrough
feature of a modern programming language.
I still do not declare variables except under some rare specific
instances. I consider it a freedom.
YES! Freedom of choice.
When I read scripts written by those who do declare lists of locals
inside their handlers, it looks messy to me and I wonder why they
don't just go off and use Basic where it is a requirement. All that
"dimming" really puts me off.
Is it sloppy programming to use a language as it was intended?
Amen to this, sister :-)
C'mom Mark, show a bit of tolerance to scripters who are not coming
from
"dogmatic" programming languages like C etc nor do have a "programming"
background at all like me...
And just relax or play some rounds of "nine ball"* :-)
*It has declared locals, if that will help you to relax...
