switch, case, and const int

[Florin Ionescu]

I don't know if this is a bug or not.

I read that in case there must be a constant value. 

I tried to define some constant int value, and put it into case statement like this:

const int MENU_SHOW 1;

//...

switch (menu_action) {

//...

case MENU_SHOW:
            ObjectSetInteger(0,prefix+"Edit",OBJPROP_TIMEFRAMES,OBJ_ALL_PERIODS);
            printf("menu L (1)");
            break;

//...         
}

 What was confusing was that mql5 compiled ok.

But what I wrote doesn't work.

It must be really a constant like in the manual.

Wouldn't mql5 refuse to compile in the case above?

#define MENU_SHOW 1

Thank you.

We will check it.

Thanks for suggestion.

I thought of #define from c, but I didn't arrive to try it.

Good it's possible.
