CVI2013 f1 and excluded lines

[vix]

I've already reported a bug using excluded lines with CVI2013 (see here)

Now with f1 patch the bug has been partially fixed, but the problem is still there if you exclude lines (CTRL+E) in a heare file included from another header file (and not directly from a source file).

See attached example and exclude (CTRL+E) line 4 in dummy.h to see the problem.

Is there a bug ID and/or a CAR for this issue?

Even with f1 patch, I can't really use CVI 2013 for project development, since I has some important regressions compared to CVI 2012 SP1.

Thanks

Hi Vix,

I have downloaded userint.zip, and I have excluded line 4 from dummy.h: #define _FORTEST //uncomment this line to view a control. I am not seeing the behavior you previously reported.

Is there a specific preparation task you have to take before loading the file in order to see this behavior?

Thanks,

Daniel

Hi Daniel,

let me explain what you should do (and should see, I hope).

• if you comment line 4 in dummy.h (with //) the project can't be rebuilt for an error. This is what I expect.
• if you exclude line 4 in dummy.h (CTRL+E) I expect the same, but the project is rebuilt without errors

So, the problem is: CTRL+E in a header file included from another header file has no effect (the line is not excluded).

Could you confirm this, please?

Hi Vix,

Thanks for explaining further.  I was able to reproduce the behavior, and I filed a Bug report (ID 439152) to track this.  We appreciate your feedback!

Warm Regards,

Hi Daniel,

could you provide the CAr for this bug?

Has it been already fixed either in CVI 2015 or in CVI 2017?

Hi, Vix.

The CAR I filed was closed as a duplicate of CAR 431260, documented as a bug fix here: http://www.ni.com/product-documentation/52401/en/ .

I hope that helps,
