Help with an if / elseif was created by Nitram
Hello.
Just wondering why my nested "if" sub ( o100 ) is not working. I want to stop a larger subroutine ( o<tool_length_probe> ) if the user has forgotten to put in a variable value i.e. left a zero.
When I test, it doesn't operate, but rather just skips over the sub and continues running on its merry way...
o100 if [#10 EQ 0]
elseif [#11 EQ 0]
elseif [#12 EQ 0]
elseif [#13 EQ 0]
elseif [#14 EQ 0]
elseif [#15 EQ 0]
elseif [#16 EQ 0]
elseif [#17 EQ 0]
elseif [#18 EQ 0]
(MSG, SOME PARAMETERS IN MACRO FILE NOT SET)
o<tool_length_probe> endsub
M2
o100 endif
Many thanks.

This untested idea with many 'OR' in one line and 'abort'
o<tool_length_probe> sub
o100 IF [[#1 EQ 0] OR [#2 EQ 1] OR [#3 EQ 0] OR [#4 EQ 2] OR [#5 EQ 0]]
(abort, SOME PARAMETERS IN MACRO FILE NOT SET)
o<tool_length_probe> RETURN
o100 endif
o<tool_length_probe> endsub
M2

After some more reading I think it might need:
1. The sub number with each elseif and
2. The action to be taken with each elseif I.e. repeat
(MSG, SOME PARAMETERS IN MACRO FILE NOT SET)
o<tool_length_probe> endsub
M2
after each elseif so the interpreter knows what to do if any single elseif tests true...
Regarding the above, I'm interested to see whether an or statement works

The OR statement did work in this context.
Thanks!

You could also use [[#1 AND #2 AND #3] EQ 0] as zero == false.
