RE: Missing Semi-Colon - Not

Jerry,

Any field with an opcode name, must not be used in an ambiguous manner.

Select = A + B;
Chain = D / C;

Have to be:
EVAL select = A + B;
EVAL chain = D / C;

Have fun!

Subject: Missing Semi-Colon - Not

I am definitely losing it. Perhaps because it's early in the morning.
I am getting the following error while entering the following line.
While this snippet is from WDSc, I get the same error in SEU so this is
not a WDSc issue.


Select = 'LIBR/NV' + %editc(l$cust : 'X');
RNF5507E A semi-colon is not specified at the end of a free-format
specification.


This is odd because, as you can see, there is a semi-colon at the end of
the line. Odd, too, is that the examples in the ILE RPG Reference
manual are in fixed format, while nearly every other %bif is in /free
format.
