[JASS] Syntax Error: "Comparing two variables of different primitive types (except real a...

[Cokemonkey11]

I'm in the process of converting some triggers in a map from GUI to jass and, without changing (much), JNGP returns a syntax error:

"Comparing two variables of different primitive types (except real and integer) is not allowed."

Here's the line:

   if ( not ( GetItemTypeId(UnitItemInSlot(GetSpellAbilityUnit(), 1)) != itemUpgAcidCannon[bj_forLoopAIndex] ) ) then

However I understand sometimes syntax checker is incorrect so I'm just curious on what I or perhaps blizzard did wrong here.

Also note that the map can save (compiles) with no problems.

Also don't point out the redundancy in if (not(, I need to work on that still.

What kind of variable is "itemUpgAcidCannon[bj_forLoopAIndex]"? If it is an integer then there should be no problems in that line.

change itemUpgAcidCannon to Integer

Why are you using not(a!=b), when that's just a==b?

Does that answer the question?

It would seem so, blah. Doesn't seem like something which really needs "working on" though.

since you asked anyway i'll just say it's converted from a gui trigger which did that automatically. It's not that I need to 'work' on it it's that i haven't changed it.
