V7.0 problem with parenthesis

Hello all,

I did notice taht vericut 7.0 gives me an alarm when I have a parenthesis within another parenthesis.

Example:
N0024 T794 (SB)(* T794 (M1994) MINIMILL 3/4" DIA. #A-538)
N0026 (SB)(* INSERTS 1/16" RAYON, CASIER #1124)
N0028 (SB)(* HOLDER #B-660 G.L. 4.00" OU #E-525 G.L. 5.75")

Vericut will tell me that MINIMILL is a non formatted word.  This error didn't happen in V6.2.2 or V6.2.1

Is this something that someone else is having or is it just me?

Thanks in advance,

---

Re: V7.0 problem with parenthesis

before 6.2 the comment was ended immediatly after ) was encountered and therefore would give an error.

In 6.2 we implemented the support of multiple parenthesis inside a comment unless their number matched.

But, some customer reported a problem for a machine where the multiple parenthesis were not supported and it caused a crash on their machine.

So for 7.0 we implemented a new macro to control the support of this function and we decided to make the worst case scenario the default setting. An error message in VERICUT is usually better than a crash on the machine.

to avoid the error:
Configuration> Adv. Options...
Events tab
Start Of Processing
Add/Modify
Macro name = MatchParensInComment
Override Value = 1
Add
OK

Save your control
