I am trying to run this piece of code and it won't work. It doesn't like the:
Code: Select all
#error WARNING: This is not the right version to use
Why am I doing wrong.
Heres the code:
Code: Select all
#if ((__VER__!=__major__) || ((__VER__ == __major__ ) && (__VER_MINOR__ < __minor__ )))
#error WARNING: This is not the right version to use
#endif

By the way, I forgot to add this:
Code: Select all
#define __major__ 1
#define __minor__ 0

Yep...C++...(or C)

#error THE ERROR!
#elif defined( SOMEDEF2 )
#error !!!
#endif

Sorry smguy...but you know C++? I didn't know that...
If you really know C++...why didn't you know what that:
#define
was?

beyondsociety, if __VER__ is 1.0, it will pass the first test because 1 does NOT equal 1.0. the second test will fail because it is neither 1 nor 0. it can only pass iff __VER__ is simultaneously 1 AND less than 0. obviously, that's very hard to do.
i don't know what compiler you're using, so i don't know what __VER__ contains, but you're testing the same define against two other unequal defines.
i'd take that code out.

Here's what I did for integers in pk0.7:
#define FULLVERSION 0
#define VERSIONDOT 7
Print( FULLVERSION ); Print( "." ); Print( VERSIONDOT );
Output:
0.7

Tom, that is not what I meant. I already know how to do that.
What I meant was, I want to check to see if my code is a certain version. If its the right version, then it will run. If its not the right version, it errors out.
Could someone give me a example.

do what I did and just check each Define.
