C-Code generation "extern" missing

[MREA]

hi
in C-code generation there is the Option extern missing.

e.g an extern attr. ; can't be deklared!

Looks like it's really missing (for C++ also, where it might be to be used in rare cases). Strange enough that the 'extern' keyword is supported for C# though.

I found this in this document, which I think it will be useful for you too:

Anyway you might do the same as it's done for C# and use a tagged value to mark attributes as 'extern' and take this in account when generating code. After importing code you'll need to set these manually though.

If you prefer to report a bug to Sparx, you'll need to send them an official bug report (see http://www.sparxsystems.com/registered/reg_bug_report.html).
