Hmm... But your patch may change the intention of that code block based
on how the lines are indented.
Here is the code we have right now
if(eType==SC_CAT_CONTENT)
if(!pScChangeAction->IsDialogParent())
pScChangeAction->GetDescription( aDesc, pDoc, TRUE);
else
pScChangeAction->GetDescription( aDesc, pDoc,!pScChangeAction->IsMasterDelete());
which makes me think the the else block is supposed to get executed when
eType != SC_CAT_CONTENT
I have no idea how the compiler parses that block of code as it is
indeed ambiguous. But I'm more in favor of interpreting it based on the
indent levels than how the compiler might be parsing it.
