dbc is crabby and unclear about this one ! This error message is basically a syntax error on the part of the user and appears :
1) if you dont have a space after every semicolon
2) if you mistyped something in a line
3) This error can also occur when using the case statement -
select somevariable
case 1: endcase
case 2 : endcase
endselect
`might throw error
4)you typed too many parameters to a command. and example would be sleep 400,400,3
`sleep only takes one paremeter
5) you didn't type enough parameters to a command
box 3,3,20 : box 2,2,200,200
`box takes four parameters not three
6) not using spaces before two open or closed parenthisis
"((" and "))" wont work
"( (" and ") )" will work just fine
Quote: "It's the "(" and ")" that are throwing the errors - for some reason, DBC doesn't seem to like them. "
try putting a space between them !
