[fpc-pascal] (no subject)

2005-03-21 Thread Artur Kornilowicz

Hi,

I think there are some problems with links in on-line fpc documentation. For
example look at

http://www.freepascal.org/docs-html/user/userse38.html#x55-1330008.2

and link to "Programmers guide" at the bottom of the page or

http://www.freepascal.org/docs-html/user/userse39.html#x56-1340008.3

and link to "FPDoc reference guide" at the bottom of the page.

Greetings

[fpc-pascal] Blockread and buffers

2005-03-21 Thread Michał Woźniak
Hmmm... Just pure curiosity:
I am getting a warning "Variable does not seem to be initialized" on a code 
from FreePascal RTL guide:

Var Fin, fout : File;
NumRead,NumWritten : Word;
Buf : Array[1..2048] of byte;
Total : Longint;

begin
  Assign (Fin, Paramstr(1));
  Assign (Fout,Paramstr(2));
  Reset (Fin,1);
  Rewrite (Fout,1);
  Total:=0;
  Repeat
BlockRead (Fin,buf,Sizeof(buf),NumRead); // <-- Warning here (buf)
BlockWrite (Fout,Buf,NumRead,NumWritten);
inc(Total,NumWritten);
  Until (NumRead=0) or (NumWritten<>NumRead);
[snip]

Address: http://www.freepascal.org/docs-html/rtl/system/blockread.html

I have used similar code for ages and had no problems, but...
Am I missing something? Should the buf be initialized (and if so - how) 
somewhere before?

TIA
Mike

The problem in both cases is that href attribute has URL with protocol 
file.
Example:
http://www.freepascal.org/docs-html/user/userse38.html#x55-1330008.2
has:
Programmers guide
instead of:
Programmers guide

Note that it is written "does not SEEM". The code is OK IMHO. Warnings
aren't always right -- for example if we have a function with many
parameters, and one of the descendant classes implements a overriden
function that uses part of the parameters you'll also get a warning, despite
that it's ok.

There are no warning/notes when compiled with 1.9.8.

As I said - pure curiosity. Besides, we all know the dream of a warning-free 
compilation. :)

Thanks
