How to use static if?

[BRUTAL]

When I try to put 'static' in front of certain if conditions, I get a syntax error saying nothing more then "syntax error."
I have no idea why it doesn't work, I've looked at peoples examples so I think I'm not doing anything wrong.
Here is an example code where I get an error.

scope test initializer qwe
globals
boolean B=true
endglobals
private function a takes nothing returns nothing
    static if B then
        call BJDebugMsg("true")
    endif
endfunction
private function qwe takes nothing returns nothing
    local trigger t=CreateTrigger()
    call TriggerRegisterPlayerChatEvent(t,Player(0),"go",true)
    call TriggerAddAction(t,function a)
endfunction
endscope

Should be: [ljass]constant boolean B=true[/ljass]

Static if's only work for constant globals, as they're evaluated when the script is compiled. A non-constant variable could change it's value over the course of the game, so a regular if statement would need to be used.

I just tried putting the constant keyword, I actually should have remember to do so anyways.
Though I still get the error.. and I'm starting to think its something wrong with newgen? But I just downloaded the newest version from the page. T_T

Likely you haven't updated your JassHelper to 0.A.2.B

Knew it was something like that.
