Carriage returns added to output when compiled by Roundtable
Symptom: A user compiles a procedure in gui Roundtable, runs said
procedure, and examines the output. She discovers that extra carriage
returns have been inserted in random places in the output. This does
not occur when compiling and running the same procedure from outside
of Roundtable.
Cause: Roundtable includes the compile attribute ATTR-SPACE when
creating its compile statement. By default this is set to YES. This
is a holdover from the Unix version of Roundtable. This is meaningful
in Unix Roundtable but was left in the Windows version because it
was not expected to cause any problems in Windows. It is now known
that it does cause the problem detailed above.
Workaround: You may override this behavior by adding NO-ATTR-SPACE to
the frame phrase of your procedure or by adding NO-ATTR-SPACE to the
Object Compile Parameters box on the Config tab for your procedure.
However, see Kbase 16508: "unable to use Roundtable Object Compile
Parameters" to be able to use this second option.
Fix information: ATTR-SPACE will be removed from Roundtable's
internal compile procedure in Roundtable version 8.1a so this should
not be a problem as of 8.1a.
