Hi Thomas,
The error is not the file content after "end.".
The error is not having the expected "end;" after "begin".
This works ok:
_
program test;
begin
end;
end.
abc 123

I've been using ELSE in IF statements and in CASE statements for 25
years without realising there was a problem. What a dim-wit I have been.

The problem with the for in loop is that I need the index.
Hi James,
You don't need a loop for that:
index:=MyStringlist.IndexOfName;

It would be nice to not have the -1
I don't understand what is wrong with Count-1, but you can get the
highest index like this if you wish:
high_index:=Length(Trim(MyStringList.Text))-Length(

If step is wanted, it's easy enough:
For n:=a to b Do
Begin
if n Mod step <> 0 then Continue;
...
p.s. make that
if (n-a) Mod step <> 0 then Continue;
for cases where a is not a multiple of step.

I am not aware of any Pascal implementation that does have a STEP

What does continue do exactly? Loop back to the beginning of the for loop
right away?
Hi James,
Yes in effect -- it jumps forward to the test at the end of a loop. Very
useful.

It will compile if $BOOLEVAL is on the default (-) because the result

Delphi mode is very useful.
It means old code from earlier versions of Delphi (in my case Delphi5)
can be open-sourced and made available via Lazarus to anyone interested,
without their needing to get an expensive copy of the latest Delphi.

The Lazarus version is mostly working in Lazarus, but instead of everything
happening before the form is loaded, is there a way I could make the form
first, then just start processing everything, so that my messages I send to
memo1 show up as it's processing? I'm guessing I need to move my p
Hi Mattias,
Thanks for your reply.
'TWinControl.WMSize loop detected, the widgetset does not like the LCL
bounds or sends unneeded wmsize messages'.
Can you create a bug report with an example to reproduce the loop?
Sorry, I don't know how to do that. However, it is very easy to replicate:
This appears to be a topic for the Lazarus list, as it appears that
you're using the Lazarus LCL: laza...@lists.lazarus-ide.org
There you may obtain adequate assistance.

Thanks. Sorry for posting to the wrong list.

If I create a child form by setting Parent:=other_form; in FormCreate,
it cannot be dragged to a new position by the user.
If I then remove the top and left anchors by setting Anchors:=[]; in
FormCreate (or in the Object Inspector) so that it can be dragged, I get
this exception:
