SN Doesn't recognize bool true/false

SN Doesn't recognize bool true/false

[leonp]

Hello, all.
         Does anybody know the cause that SN C-parser doesn't recognize 
"false" and "true" words (while do recognize "bool")?
Thanks.

They're not C.  They are C++.  (I don't know why it would recognize
'bool' unless it expands typedefs/#defines)

Because it has not been implemented. Seriously, adding
support for this kind of thing is not hard at all,
someone just needs to sit down for 20 minutes and
actually do it.

Why don't you try this patch out and see if it works for you?

I apologize for not to be able to test this yet - I still didn't forced 
myself to study the Windows installation of SN from sources - it was 
written somewhere several times, that it is a real pain (as all the Windows 
is).

Yet, the patch seems to work, I did the debugging by my eyes. :-))
