Static if problem

[Executor]

Hi

    private static constant boolean     INVERT_ABILITIES    = true
    
    private static method onInit takes nothing returns nothing
        static if not thistype.INVERT_ABILITIES then
            local string    s   = .NORMAL_HOTKEY
            local integer   i   = .NORMAL_ABIL
            
            set .NORMAL_ABIL    = .SPECIAL_ABIL
            set .SPECIAL_ABIL   = i
        
            set i               = .NORMAL_ORDER
            set .NORMAL_ORDER   = .SPECIAL_ORDER
            set .SPECIAL_ORDER  = i
            
            set .NORMAL_HOTKEY  = .SPECIAL_HOTKEY
            set .SPECIAL_HOTKEY = s
            
            set s = ""
            
            call BJDebugMsg("TRUE")
        endif
        if .INVERT_ABILITIES then
            call BJDebugMsg("TRUE")
        else
            call BJDebugMsg("FALSE")
        endif 
    endmethod

When the bool is true ingame is returned "TRUE" "TRUE"
When the bool is false ingame is returned "TRUE" "FALSE"

lol?

Use thistype on both ifs, it might work.
Read the JassHelper documentation i think thistype is mandatory.

Well but this won't solve the problem why the static if is printed even when the bool is true.
Or rather I added this "not" because else the static if NEVER gets printed even when the bool is true ..

Indeed, anyway it seems thistype is no longer mandatory, contact Vexorian on www.wc3.net to report the bug.

Does the [ljass]not[/ljass] keyword work in static if's?

 

[Executor]

not works normally.

Bug reported.

Perhaps this has something too do with having local variables in the static if?
Just a wild guess here, but try moving them outside the if.

Didn't help. Hm solved this case for me by just removing the static and copying the local vars above the if. I already removed the "constant" from these "constants" so, here is no difference.
