Hello,
Indentation is very useful in any programming language.
We are using the Natural command "struct" to indent our Natural modules.
However, we would like it to have more options.
For example, the current STRUCT command result:
DEFINE DATA
LOCAL
1 #a (a010)
1 redefine #a
2 #a1 (n10)
Local using lda001l
End-define
On Error
Escape module
End-error
Perform hello
Define subroutine hello
If #a1 <> 0
Write "Hello World"
End-if
End-subroutine
However, the desired STRUCT command result should look like this:
DEFINE DATA
LOCAL
1 #a (a010)
1 redefine #a
2 #a1 (n10)
Local using lda001l
End-define
On Error
Escape module
End-error
Perform hello
Define subroutine hello
If #a1 <> 0
Write "Hello World"
End-if
End-subroutine
In General, the change I am looking for, is that the first command line, after the module definition, will also be indent.
This is how other languages, like Python, are working.
It is clear that it is not possible to change the functionality of the "STRUCT" command that is in use by many customers.
However, it will be great to have a parameter to control the behavior of STRUCT.
Can this be done?
| Use Case | Natural indentation should be similar to other languages, such as python. |
