Lazarus compilation error for lesson 1

#1 Postby jimbo » Mon Mar 17, 2014 3:12 am

Hi, I can't figure out why I am getting the following errors related to the library StrategyInterfaceUnit.pas.

Using Lazarus 1.2RC2. x86_64-win64-win32/win64.

Since the library source can't be wrong, it's gotta be some setting in Lazarus that I got wrong right?

Code: Select all

StrategyInterfaceUnit.pas(913,67) Hint: Function result variable does not seem to be initialized
StrategyInterfaceUnit.pas(923,66) Hint: Function result variable does not seem to be initialized

I refer to this demo strategy in Lesson 1 that doesn't nothing:

Code: Select all

library DemoStrategy;

uses
  SysUtils, StrategyInterfaceUnit, TechnicalFunctions;

procedure InitStrategy; stdcall;
begin
  StrategyShortName('DemoStrategy');
  StrategyDescription('Demo strategy that does nothing');
end;

procedure DoneStrategy; stdcall;
begin

end;

procedure ResetStrategy; stdcall;
begin

end;

procedure GetSingleTick; stdcall;
begin

end;

exports
  InitStrategy,
  DoneStrategy,
  ResetStrategy,
  GetSingleTick;

end.
