IMPLICITSCOPE

Enables the syntax checker to produce warning messages for cases where scope has been implicitly ended. This usually occurs where the scope terminator (END-VERB) could have been used.

Certain syntax conditions end the scope of verbs automatically. This might not be what was intended. NOIMPLICITSCOPE causes the syntax checker to produce warning messages for cases where scope has been implicitly ended. This usually occurs where the scope terminator (END-VERB) could have been used.

Syntax:

>>-.---.--IMPLICITSCOPE------------><
   +-/-+

Parameters:

None

Properties:

Default:	IMPLICITSCOPE
Phase:	Syntax check
$SET:	Any

Dependencies:

None

Comments:

You will need to set WARNINGS(3) to make the messages appear.

Example:

IF ITEM-1 > 10
    MOVE 10 TO ITEM-2
    PERFORM ITEM-3 TIMES
        ADD 1 TO ITEM-3
ELSE
    IF ITEM-1 > 20
        MOVE 20 TO ITEM-2
    ELSE
        MOVE 0 TO ITEM-2.
    MOVE 4 TO ITEM-3

The ELSE ends the scope of the inline PERFORM, and the period ends the scope of all statements, which in this case is the two IF statements.
