Problem

[Michaellad]

When I am trying to execute the code an error appears stating:

(Repeat: error in 'with' end condition expression)

I am unsure of what this means, could someone help?

Can you post your code that is causing the error?

Hi Michael,

1. welcome to the forum!
2. What Sean said, guessing is just too timeconsuming!
3. Will move this thread to the "Beginners" forum.

Repeat with example:

########CODE#######
repeat with i=1 to 10
answer i
end repeat
#####END OF CODE#####

Hi, thanks for the code sample.. That should work without an issue, so not too certain why the LiveCode engine is complaining.. What version are you using and what operating system?

Typical new user mistake:

Code: Select all

repeat with each line tLine of tList -- will not work

Use

Code: Select all

repeat for each line tLine of tList

or use the "with" syntax Max shows above

If you don't need to have the specific numerical indexin the "with" syntax then repeat for each is much, much faster in the loop.

I just furnished a repeat example.

I know, tell it Sean!

[shaosean]

i don't really pay that much attention

Hmmm.

Never saw this error before. If one does this, as per SparkOut's suggestion:

Code: Select all

on mouseUp
   repeat with each word tWord in "aa bb cc" --note "with", not "for"
      put tword
   end repeat
end mouseUp

You get

compilation error at line 2 (repeat: expecting '=') near "word", char 16

and not

error in 'with' end condition expression)

But why speculate? Hey Michaellad, where are you?
