Too long a line? Why this shoudn't be working

ROOT

The attached code was part of a longer program, that failed
upon loading (using “.L file.C” at the ROOT prompt).
It took a while to isolate the problem.
Can somebody explain it?

Hi,

We are in the processed on revamping the CINT source code and will be able to work on solving a slew of problems (including yours (limited buffer size for some operations)) when this is done.
In the meantime, please, simply avoid this multi-line syntax.

Cheers,
Philippe.
