OR operator in macros

[jj2007]

This works in a macro:
  src equ <arg>  ;; a text item
  sc = 3              ;; a number
  ifidn <Test1>, src
   push 1
  elseifidn <Test2>, src
   push 1
  elseif sc eq 5 or sc eq 6
   push 5
  endif

I have googled a lot to find an equivalent or for the text item, e.g.

elseifidn <Test2>, src or idn <Test3>, src

elseif (src idn <gaga>)

etc but nothing works. Any ideas?

hi,

unfortunately there is no equivalent. Here is my suggestion for a Workaround:

Code Select Expand


@CmpStr macro str1:=<>,str2:=<>
IFIDN <&str1>,<&str2>
EXITM <1>
ELSE
EXITM <0>
ENDIF
endm
@CmpStrI macro str1:=<>,str2:=<>
IFIDNI <&str1>,<&str2>
EXITM <1>
ELSE
EXITM <0>
ENDIF
endm

...
elseif @CmpStr(<test2>,src>) or @CmpStr(<test3>,src)
...
