SETID values

I was just wondering about SETID values.

You can have hex values, decimal values, but NOT decimal values that are minus - the compiler throws up an error when you do that.

So how would we express a setid who's value is  a minus value?

Example:

SETID "MyWidgit",-100

Thanks,
Andy.

I've never run into a negative flag value and that's what SETID was intended for(or at least that's  my understanding)

@ constant is an unsigned integer but something like this should work:

setid "minushundred", 0xFFFFFF9C
print int(@minushundred)

Larry,

Using my constants search program I've found a few minus values:

Jalih,

FFFFFF9C does work, but 9C is not 100 decimal, so where did you get the 9C value from?

Thanks,
Andy.

it comes directly from binary and how computer stores negative numbers.

You might consider ditching using @ constants and use const instead. It seems to be able to handle negative numbers directly.

Jalih,

Yes, CONST does handle minus values correctly, I was simply using the constants search program to produce a list of SETID's for a control type and found when I had minus values and pasted the SETID's into a program the compiler didn't like it.

Was just wondering if there was a way around it, or just to simply to leave it as it is.

Thanks for your help.

Andy.

BTW:

If you haven't downloaded the constants search program yet, here is the link:

And I will release version 4.2 nearer Christmas time with more constants and functions added.

Day after day, day after day, we struck nor breath nor motion, as idle as a painted ship upon a painted ocean.

Try this, results are interesting:

QuoteOPENCONSOLE

DEF i:INT
DEF u:UINT
DEF i64:INT64
DEF u64:UINT64

i = 0xFFFFFF9C
u = 0xFFFFFF9C
i64 = 0xFFFFFF9C
u64 = 0xFFFFFF9C

print i, u, i64, u64

PRINT "Done"
INPUT i
CLOSECONSOLE
END

The -100 I expected, but the int64 and uint64 has differing results.
