Forums Bug Reports Nested While Loop

WHY cant you have nested while loops on the one line?.... i.e.

//var %i = 1 | while (%i < 4) { echo -at rar %i | var %i2 = 1 | while (%i2 < 4) { echo -at m00 %i2 | inc %i2 } | inc %i }

gives

(07:24:18p) rar 1
(07:24:18p) m00 1
(07:24:18p) m00 2
(07:24:18p) m00 3

just as

//var %i 1 | while (%i < 22) { echo -at rar %i | while (%i < 4) { echo -at m00 %i | inc %i } | inc %i }

gives only

(07:24:57p) rar 1
(07:24:57p) m00 1
(07:24:57p) m00 2
(07:24:57p) m00 3

they both forget the first loop

alias whileloop {
__var %i = 1 , %ii = 1
__while (%i <= 10) {
____echo -a loop1: %i
____while (%ii <= 10) {
______echo -a loop2: %ii
______inc %ii
____}
____echo -a loop2: end
____inc %i
__}
__echo -a loop1: end
}

works like a charm... you can't use the %i twice, you need to use another var

(don't mind the _, just for looks)

Use the code tags if you want spaces in, like:

You're right. happened to me too. unless khlaed is going to fix this to the next version, you'd have to break it to a few lines.

Yeah this bug haunts mirc for quite a few versions. Let's hope it's fixed in the next one (together with $base :tongue:)
