UNIQ$(string$,NL$) forgets the delimiter.

[rikky]

Hello

I am using the latest FOSSIL from just minutes ago.

list$ = "bla" & NL$ & \
       "blabla" & NL$ & \
       "bloep" & NL$ & \
       "bliep" & NL$ & \
       "bla" & NL$ & \
       "bloepbloep" & NL$

PRINT
PRINT "UNIQ:"
PRINT UNIQ$(list$,NL$)
response:

bla blabla bloep bliep bloepbloep
Somehow the newline has fallen away.
The same with other delimiters.

list$ = "bla|blabla|bloep|bliep|bla|bloepbloep|"

PRINT
PRINT "UNIQ:"
PRINT UNIQ$(list$,"|")
 Rik.

Hello Rik

I hope not to distract from your original report
we need feedback on all things
but you could solve this another way also

if you are testing some ideas
working with strings







Joe




list$ = " bla\n|blabla\n|bloep\n|bliep\n| bla\n|bloepbloep\n|"

PRINT
PRINT "UNIQ:"
PRINT UNIQ$(list$,"|")



and to make it look neater in the formatting we can remove the spaces

list$ = "bla\n|blabla\n|bloep\n|bliep\n|bla\n|bloepbloep\n|"

PRINT
PRINT "UNIQ: "
PRINT ALIGN$(UNIQ$(list$,"|"),10,0)

Thanks rikky,

Omg this is embarrassing, such a stupid bug

This is wrong indeed. It is caused by remnants of my debugging code, which I used to implement the better-performance-version of UNIQ$. I simply overlooked to put back the delimiter when calling the final string construction function.

The fix is in fossil already.

As a matter of fact, this month I am trying to find a bug each day. So please do not hesitate to find more!

Best regards,
Peter
