Re: [chuck-users] ++ return value

Hi Atte! The ++ and -- (post and pre) are a bit fishy right now. We plan to fix this. In the meantime, it safest to NOT used them inline with expressions. Thanks for the reporting this and sorry for the inconvenience. Best, Ge!

I expected the ++ (and --) operator to work as this:

If ++ precedes the variable, e.g. ++i, the value returned is the value in counter after it has been incremented. If ++ follows the variable, e.g. i++, the value returned is the value in counter before it has been incremented.

This doesn't seem to be the case (chuck always returns the value after it has been incremented):

int i; <<<i>>>; <<>>; <<<++i>>>;

[atte@aarhus tests]$ chuck increment.ck 0 :(int) 1 :(int) 2 :(int)

Maybe this could be changed?

-- peace, love & harmony Atte
