This syntax only support primitive types?

[ghost]

For example, this works: x, y, z int

But this doesn't work:

x, y, z HWND

In order to have it compile I have to write like this:

x HWND
y HWND
z HWND

So the syntax doesn't work with aliased types.

That's weird, I'll look into it

That's weird, it seems to work for me

import 'sys/cstdio.adept'
alias HWND = HANDLE
alias HANDLE = ptr

func main {
    x, y, z HWND
    printf('Okay\n')
    printf('Type of HWND is %s\n', typenameof HWND)
}

compiles and runs just fine.

Is your adept -v correct and show that you are using the latest nightly version?

It should say Adept 2.8 and that it was built on September 12 2023.

Also if the compiler is still not working for your code, can you send the section of code that is causing the issue? Thank you

I'm translating dwtest.c to Adept. This is what I observed during the translation. I tested your piece of code and it worked. I have no idea why it doesn't work on my dwtest.adept. My dwtest.adept is a WIP and it's not yet compile. I only use adept.exe to check for the syntax error and correct it. The source file is too large. Most of the time, it's a trivial correction to convert C syntax to Adept syntax. But there are so many of them that it takes too much time and effort. Up until now, I've not yet completed the translation of it. If there is an automation tool like fbfrog in FreeBASIC, the job will be so much easier. The tool is not perfect, but it really helps.

Like in other thread, I'm pretty busy right now, but I'll look into it when I have some time

Also, I've tried and can't seem to reproduce the issue, so can't look into this possible HWND declaration bug further without knowing specific code which causes it
