[2.10] Bug - Compat report with ~< ~>
|
While testing a different problem:
#SUBS {%ansi(12)<%ansi(green) @tleftarm @trightarm~~@tleftleg @trightleg%ansi(12)>%ansi(reset)}
#SUBS {%ansi(12)~<%ansi(green) @tleftarm @trightarm~~@tleftleg @trightleg%ansi(12)~>%ansi(reset)}
They both trigger the same compatibility report bug:
Trigger
<> immediate expansion syntax no longer used [Help] : <%ansi(green) @tleftarm @trightarm~~@tleftleg @trightleg%ansi(12)>
I just want to display them, not use them for immediate expansion. Am I doing it wrong, or is the report just misinterpreting their purpose in my script? |

The report doesn't necessarily flag problems, it flags things that might be problems. The <> characters don't do anything in CMUD, which might break a zMUD script that relies on them. Since you weren't using them for immediate expansion in the first place, there's no problem.

Yeah, the compatibility report has no way to distinguish between the old <> expansion syntax in zMUD and the use of <> in MXP/HTML.

Change the regex that detects detects the <> to also check for a tilde not being there. [^~], or if the tilde has a problem being passed to the regex engine you can use [^\176].
