VLisp Console : bad argument value: non-negative: -1

[stusic]

I'm trying to compile a vlx file but run into the title error message when I'm adding the following subroutine to the list of dependant files to be compiled. I can't see anything wrong with it and it runs fine when I run it after loading the source files from my project. Any ideas?

Thanks for any help :beer:



(defun _implode (data delim / str n)
(if (and (= (type data) 'LIST)
(= (type delim) 'STR)
(> (strlen delim) 0)
)
(foreach n data
(if str
(setq str (strcat str delim n))
(setq str n)
)
)
)
)

I have no problems compiling that routine to VLX.

Hmm...

Do you think it can be caused by the order which I'm trying to load my subs? My main routine is dependent on a sub, which in turn is dependent on this sub.

[Opie]

Yes. The dependent routines need to be loaded before loading your main routine.

Well, I'm not sure exactly what was going on, but I got around it by embedding the sub I posted into its dependent sub.

I swear I searched and didn't find this (although it's got the exact same title...) (http://forums.augi.com/showthread.php?14586-Compiling-Error-quot-error-bad-argument-value-non-negative-1-quot), but I think this is my problem (MS-DOS filename compatibility).
