I have been able to reproduce this. However, I'm not sure what the cause
it. My guess is that the end-of-line is not consumed before the
exception is raised, and therefore the
readln(NewAlbum.alLabel);
line gets an empty input line. Delphi does consume the end-of-line, and
waits for the input of the label.
This is a very tricky issue, I think the core FPC list needs to discuss
it.
For the moment, I would do like this;
Var
A : String;
begin
readln(A);
NewAlbum.Year:=StrToIntDef(A,0);
write('label: ');
readln(NewAlbum.alLabel);
write('tracks: ');
readln(NewAlbum.NumTracks);
This avoids the exception.
if there's anyting anyone needs from me on this, feel free to let me
know. since you've indicated that you've been able to reproduce the
error i'll assume you won't need the code that I have. however, should
that be needed i'd be more than happy to send it.
