1. What I'm doing wrong?

Hello,

I'm trying to run a program that does include a switch statement. The interpreter flags "switch" as not defined:

    fblength = length(fbuffer) 
    j = k = 1 
    filetable = {} 
    filename = {} 
    for i=1 to fblength do 
        c = onefetch(fbuffer,i) 
        switch c do              
            case '\10' then  
                filetable[j] = filename 
                k = 1 
                filename = {}                 
            case else 
                append (filename[k], c) 
        end switch 
    end for 

And the interpreter says:

C:\$TOOLS\EUPHORIA\PROJECTS\JULIO\0.Prefiltro.exw:109 
switch has not been declared 
        switch c do 
             ^ 

I'm getting mad... Any help would be very appreciated. Thanks in advance. Regards. Jes.

Pretty sure:

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator>eui -v 
Euphoria Interpreter v4.0.0 
   Windows, Using Managed Memory 
   Revision Date: 2010-12-22, Id: 115714454200 

Even the test program in the manual does fail:

switch x with fallthru do 
2 case 1 then 
3 ? 1 
4 case 2 then 
5 ? 2 
6 break 
7 case else 
8 ? 0 
9 end switch 

C:\$TOOLS\EUPHORIA\PROJECTS\JULIO\testswitch.exw:1 
switch has not been declared 
switch x with fallthru do 
     ^ 
Press Enter 

Might it be a bug? Regards, Jes.

   Revision Date: 2010-12-22, Id: 115714454200 

This is why i never have allowed Euphoria extensions to be associated with anything but TextPad. That way i can do nonsense like this:

@PATH=%PATH%;C:\euphoria40b4-3412\bin;C:\euphoria40b4\include 
@SET EUDIR=C:\euphoria40b4-3412 
@start /b C:\euphoria40b4-3412\bin\eui.exe %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9 

That's an older bat file, but i call the bat file, not the exe, so the bat file sets up the environment. However, i hear there's new built-in ways to do that in v4, but i have not tried them.

Bingo!.

I had exw.exe on the path... :( Apologies for such a silly question and thanks for the useful help :)

I have to do a cleanup and a clean install.

Kind regards. Jes.
