Dear XPLOR-NIH users:
I am (finally) moving from X-PLOR to XPLOR-NIH, and I've ecountered a
problem with legacy scripts containing nested while loops. The nesting
worked in XPLOR 98.1 under UNIX, but gives errors when the exact same
script is run in XPLOR-NIH 2.15.0 under Linux.
The follwing are excerpts from a log file generated with XPLOR 98.1 run
under UNIX:
X-PLOR>while ($lasti GE $currenti) loop main
NEXTCD: condition evaluated as true
X-PLOR>while ($rcon < 0.1) loop stg2
NEXTCD: condition evaluated as true
When run using XPLOR-NIH 1.15.0 under Linux, the first (outer) while
loop works fine, but the inner loop fails:
X-PLOR>while ($lasti GE $currenti) loop main
NEXTCD: condition evaluated as true
X-PLOR>while ($rcon < 0.1) loop stg2
%X-PLOR-ERR: unrecognized command:
while
^^^^^
Has anyone enountered problems with nested while loops when running
legacy XPLOR scripts with XPLOR-NIH? If anyone knows of a simple way to
fix this, I would very much appreciate your help. I could re-write my
legacy scripts based on the examples provided with XPLOR-NIH, but a
quick fix would be a big time saver it it is possible. Thank you very much.
