got an assert error on syntax check within IDE.  per email response from Gavin creating jira:

code sample that gave error below is here:

EXPORT Functions := MODULE
.

EXPORT fn_AccountStatus_sort_order(STRING status) := FUNCTION

fn_AccountStatus_sort_order := CASE(status,
'OVERDUE' => 1,
'CURRENT' => 2,
'CLOSED' => 3,
999);

RETURN fn_AccountStatus_sort_order;
END;
EXPORT fn_AccountStatus_sort_order2(STRING status) := FUNCTION

fn_AccountStatus_sort_order := CASE(status,
'OVERDUE' => 1,
'CURRENT' => 2,
'CLOSED' => 3,
999);

RETURN fn_AccountStatus_sort_order;
END;

END; // module.

Got this error:

Error: syntax error near ":=" : expected '(' (393, 40), 3002,
Error: assert(basetype->getTypeCode() != type_function) failed - file: deftype.cpp, line 1952 (0, 0), 3000,
