Re: [Bug-GnuCOBOL] WHEN-COMPILED is a reserved word, but isn't supported

[Edward Hart]

An announcement should be posted to the gnucobol-users mailing list and to the "State of the Project" thread on SourceForge. If you're keen to test the fix now, you can download and compile the source.

Whoops! Make that -fregister=WHEN-COMPILED -fnot-reserved=WHEN-COMPILED, then.

cobc -fstatic-call -fregister=WHEN-COMPILED -fnot-reserved=WHEN-COMPILED -std=mf -C D9EDB05P-trace.cbl
D9EDB05P-trace.cbl: in section 'MAIN':
D9EDB05P-trace.cbl: 176: error: 'WHEN-COMPILED' is not defined

Apparently the order is important:

cobc -fstatic-call -fnot-reserved=WHEN-COMPILED -fregister=WHEN-COMPILED -std=mf -C D9EDB05P-trace.cbl

this works! Thanks.

Can you let me know when the release candidate for GnuCOBOL 3.0
is available which fixes the bug with ACCEPT FROM DAY,
so that I can test it?
