operador In

[goosfancito]

Hola.

Code: Select all | Expand

local aDatos:={1,2,3}
if (x in aDatos)
   ? "esta"
endif
 

eso al ejecutarlo me da un error de argumento, que hago mal?

Hola Gustavo.

El operador In ahora me entero que existe en Harbour, creo poder afirmar que en Clipper no existia.

si fueran cadenas podrias utilizar el operador $

de la forma

Code: Select all | Expand

   local x := "a"
   local aDatos := "abc"
    if (x $ aDatos)
       ? "esta"
    endif

 

pero con numeros, como sabes puedes utilizar

Code: Select all | Expand

   local x := 1
  local aDatos := {1,2,3}
    if (Ascan(aDatos, x)>0)
       ? "esta"
    endif
 

Saludos

Jose.

Code: Select all | Expand

x IN aDatos 
 

is permissible syntax in xHarbour and is very powerful.
I do not understand the reason for the runtime error, because we can use any datatype for x in this syntax.

Mr. Rao

I think Gustavo is using Harbour , the operator IN only exists in XHarbour

in Harbour and with arrays should uses

Code: Select all | Expand

(Ascan(aDatos, x)>0)

I think Gustavo is using Harbour , the operator IN only exists in XHarbour

If he is using Harbour, he should get a compilation error but not runtime error.

Now, I understand.

This sample program:

Code: Select all | Expand

#include "fivewin.ch"
#include "hbcompat.ch"

function Main()

   local x     := 2
   local aList := { 1,2,3 }

   if ( x IN aList )
      ? "ok"
   else
      ? "not ok"
   endif

return nil

When compiled and built with xHarbour works perfectly.

When we compile with Harbour, the hbcompat.ch uses this translate to preprocess:

Code: Select all | Expand

   #translate ( <exp1> IN <exp2> )     => ( ( <exp1> ) $ ( <exp2> ) )
 

So,

Code: Select all | Expand

   if ( x IN aList )
 

is translated and compiled as:

Code: Select all | Expand

if ( x $ aList )
 

This naturally results in runtime error.
