I am having problems getting the version variable to work. The documentation says "just enter the name of your version variable in the form "unit.var". This variable *MUST* be a string variable or a string typed constant."
I have written the following:

Code: Select all

const
  version : String = '1.3.0';

and entered version as the unit.var value in the MadExcept settings.
But when I compile I always have a message from MadExcept saying "[madExcept] The specified version variable was not found!"

How should I define my version variable for madExcept to find it?

What exactly did you enter in the "unit.var value" setting?

I enter the name of the constant, ie. 'version'.

You have to add the name of the unit, too...

That's why it's "unit.var". You have to enter the name of the unit first, then a dot, then the name of the variable.

Yes of course that was it.
Thank you very much.
