Hello,
The following hint message is displayed, which I doubt is correct which
makes it interesting:
"project1.lpr(21,5) Hint: Local variable "b" does not seem to be
initialized"
Unfortunately the debugger is not working on my system, Lazarus does not
have a disassembly view so I can't see what's going on at assembly level.
However when looking at the source code this hint message seems inaccurate.
B is initialized by the procedure test.
Demonstration/test program:
// *** Begin of Code ***
program project1;
{$mode objfpc}{$H+}
uses
{$IFDEF UNIX}{$IFDEF UseCThreads}
cthreads,
{$ENDIF}{$ENDIF}
Classes
{ add your units here };
procedure test( var b : byte );
begin
b := 5;
end;
procedure useit;
var
b : byte;
begin
test( b );
writeln( b );
end;
begin
writeln('program started');
useit;
writeln('press enter to exit');
readln;
writeln('program finished');
end.
// *** End of Code ***
I sent this message to free pascal and lazarus mailing lists because I am
not sure which program is generating the hint message ?
(Free Pascal Compiler or Lazarus ?)
Me thinks FPC but I am not 100% sure ;)
Bye,
Skybuck.
