Exit (procedure)

Syntax

exit()

Argument

Code Sample Example

This example shows how to break from a loop when a specific word, in this case ’Invoice,’ is found somewhere on the data

page.

define(&x,integer,1)

for(&x,1,1,&current.lpp)

if(pos('Invoice',@(&x,1,80))>0)

exit()

endif

endfor()

Condition Structures

If … ElseIf… EndIf (procedure)

This command structure can define up to two conditional blocks. Statements nested within the first block are executed only if

the condition specified in the if statement returns true. If it returns false, the program branches to the first statement in the sec-

ond block, if one has been defined using the elseif statement. Otherwise, control flows to the first statement following the endif

command.

With PlanetPress Suite version 7.0, the elseif statement has been optimized to evaluate an argument, exactly like an if state-

ment, and elseif statements from other programming languages. In order to complete the if...elseif...endif command struc-

ture, however, an else statement was also added, acting exactly like the previous, empty elseif. Note that the use of the else

statement is strongly recommended, as it is optimized by comparison to the elseif statement. Also note that documents

created with previous versions and using the if...elseif...endif structure will not be updated, for full backward compatibility.
