Syntax error in Ax

 static void Job(Args _args) 
 { 
    int number=10;
    do
     {
        print (strfmt("current number = %1", number));
        number --;
     }while (number != 0)  
  }

This is a job just for testing do-while in X++ , and I get a "syntax error" in the last '}'

I'm new to Dynamics AX and to X++, so I don't know if there's something I'm missing, but I'd say it should work.

-----[EDIT]-----

second part of the q开发者_运维技巧uestion was moved to a separate question

As in many C style languages, the DO WHILE loop does require a semicolon at the end of the while test:

SYNTAX

do
{ statement }
while
( expression ) ;

Fixed code:

static void Job(Args _args) 
{ 
  int number=10;
  do
   {
      print (strfmt("current number = %1", number));
      number --;
   }while (number != 0); <-- semicolon required here
}

The reason the error doesn't occur until the final brace is that the compiler doesn't realize there's something missing until that point in the code.
