Android Question SOLVED: Two instructions in one line?

[Gaxapu]

Hello forum members

Is there a way to put two or more instructions in one line?
Example:
Write this code

Sub Prueba as Boolean
return False
end sub

as

Sub Prueba as Boolean; return False; end sub

Change the ";" for whatever is needed.

Thanks

Moved to the questions forum. You can use colon to add another statement on the same line.
However it will not work on the Sub line.

I also don't recommend using it too much.

Thanks Erel.
Not sure in which forum should I put the question. My best bet was the general one. Never thought it should be in Android.

I was almost sure I saw the colon used for the purpose but it wasn´t working in the example.
Just out of curiosity: Why it does not work in the Sub line?

I don´t use it too much. I was only trying to beatufy a large, repetitive chunk of code.

You've posted it in the "forum discussion". This is the place for discussions related to the forum itself. General B4X related questions should go to anyone of the three questions forums. You can add [B4X] to the thread title to mark it as a cross platform thread.

The parser needs to build the document main structure very quickly as it happens while the developer types. It assumes that subs are declared in their own line.

Post the relevant code. I have a feeling that there are better ways to solve it.

Wow, you are very fast responding.

Post the relevant code. I have a feeling that there are better ways to solve it.

The code is a bunch of Gettters and Setters of properties of a CustomView.
I can post the code if you want. It´s just faster to explain.

Public Sub getModo1Color As Int
    Return mModo1.Color
End Sub
Public Sub setModo1Color(Value As Int)
    mModo1.Color = Value
End Sub

If there is no other logic except of setting or getting the value then you can remove this code and use public fields. Later if you need to add some logic then it will be simple to change to properties.

or just collapse them?
