Description
Situation:
some ACI function automatically evaluate their parameters, namely
- all binary operators (like minus, plus, …) and
- the select command
The binary operator only evaluate if called in the flavor that uses 2 parameters!
Effects:
- calling minus(7,2) does not work (error)
- need to use minus("\"7\"","\"2\"")
- calling hitidx|mult(100)|div(hitcount) does not work
- there is now way to force evaluation of 'hitcount'
Possible solution:
- never automatically evaluate parameters (grep code for EVALUATED_PARAM)
- force evaluation using the prefixes |, : and /
⇒ evaluate rest of parameter using ACI, SRT or REG
⇒ use result as effective parameter - use \ before (unwanted) prefix character
Problem:
- will break existing ACI-code
⇒ fix ACI-code delivered with ARB
