Problems testing the sign of a commodity collector.

[Michael McKay]

I'm having problems testing the sign of a commodity collector.

I've modified the income statement to show gross margin and EBITDA.  I've
removed the option for multiple columns and put all the results in a single
table.  It all works well except for the following:

The original scm code used this:

       (report-line
	   (if standard-order? 
	       exp-table 
	       inc-table)
	   (string-append (_ "Net income") period-for)
	   (string-append (_ "Net loss") period-for)
	   net-income
	   (* 2 (- tree-depth 1)) exchange-fn #f #f
	   )


I'd like to replace it with:

	  (add-subtotal-line my-table 
	    (if (gnc-numeric-negative-p (net-income))
	      (string-append (_ "Net loss") period-for)
	      (string-append (_ "Net income") period-for)
	    )  
	    #f net-income)

Net-income is defined as

     (set! net-income (gnc:make-commodity-collector))


Everything works but the if statement. What am I missing?


Thanks in advance.
