KiXStrip - Feedback

MCA,

KiXStrip appears to have the following limitation. Take the following line (which I split to avoid long lines).

Code:


 FOR EACH $card IN GetObject($wmi).execquery("SELECT * FROM WIN32_NETWORKADAPTERCONFIGURATION
    WHERE IPENABLED='TRUE'")

Also, with function calls:
Code:


 $rs.fields('PagefileSpace').value=val(WMIQuery('TotalPageFileSpace',
 'Win32_LogicalMemoryConfiguration')[0])/1024

KiXtart happily runs the code with no problems.

Run the code through KiXStrip -
Code:


 FOR EACH $card IN GetObject($wmi).execquery("SELECT * FROM WIN32_NETWORKADAPTERCONFIGURATION
; -------> Warning KIXSTRIP: 163 line incomplete "double quotation".
; -------> Warning KIXSTRIP: 163 line incomplete "left parenthesis".
; -------> Warning KIXSTRIP: 163 line incompleted.
    WHERE IPENABLED='TRUE'")

Also, with function calls:
Code:


 $rs.fields('PagefileSpace').value=val(WMIQuery('TotalPageFileSpace',
; -------> Warning KIXSTRIP: 75 line incomplete "left parenthesis".
; -------> Warning KIXSTRIP: 75 line incompleted.
 'Win32_LogicalMemoryConfiguration')[0])/1024

Thanks,

Kent

Lonkero Lonkero KiX Master Guru Registered: 2001-06-05 Posts: 22346 Loc: OK	this was discussed before too. I remember me complaining about this and MCA said it's by design. you must also understand that if you want to get a really proper code, you must make the parser similar that's in postprep and don't think everyone is willing to take that step. so, multiline text is big no-no in kixstrip. you could although use compile and make it one line before testing _________________________ ! download KiXnet

Richard H. Richard H. Administrator Registered: 2000-01-24 Posts: 4946 Loc: Leatherhead, Surrey, UK	I think it is probably OK as is. You need to consider these as "warnings" rather than "errors". Because KiXtart is so loosely formatted, multi-line may mean that you have made an error, or it may be a deliberate formatting choice. KiXtart itself has problems reporting the actual lines that errors have occurred in, simply because of the free format style. This is not limited to KiXtart. All languages which allow free format coding have problems identifying where the problem actually is - open speech marks are the major cause of chaos. In short, it is better to identify potential problems with warnings than it is to try and be clever and report misleading information.

Lonkero Lonkero KiX Master Guru Registered: 2001-06-05 Posts: 22346 Loc: OK	is it really? the way it does the scan and the way kixtart syntax CAN be written, there is no way kixstrip can be accurate. there should be strict ruleset proggie that really does worky but indeed, writing such is little exchaustive even for me. _________________________ ! download KiXnet

MCA MCA KiX Supporter Registered: 2000-04-28 Posts: 5152 Loc: Netherlands, EU	Dear Jooel, Indeed we are always trying to keep kixstrip accurate as possible. Some issues are always necessary when nobody is using those capabilities. Above information shows that some of you are using those 'new' ones. Possible, that you guys have some short scripts with those things which aren't handled in a correct way in the current releases and which we can use during development the new version. Short scripts can send to me by mail "scripting@wanadoo.nl". greetings. _________________________ email scripting@wanadoo.nl homepage scripting@wanadoo.nl \| Links \| Summary of Site Site KiXforms FAQ kixtart.org library collection mirror MCA \| FAQ & UDF help file UDF kixtart.org library collection mirror MCA \| mirror USA \| mirror europe UDF scriptlogic library collection UDFs \| mirror MCA
