Hi all,

I got this warning:

Warning: cdecl'ared functions have no high parameter

on every external C function with overload and a "array of const" parameter

function A(p1: longint; args: array of const): PChar; cdecl; external;
function A(p1: longint): PChar; cdecl; external;

Well, i never used the second variation, but.....

I'm doing something wrong?

I know thar it is you Carl.... You and your annoying warnings... (I'm just kidding, don't flame me) :)

TIA

You lost:
its me (Pierre Muller) that
added this message.

The purpose of the message is to make clear that the high parameter (containing the nubmer of elements of the array that is normally passed to Free Pascal functions
having an open array parameter, is not passed to that function.

In fact this kind of warnings is only useful if the function is not external... but the warning is issued when 'cdecl' is parsed, so the compiler does not know yet that the function
is external....

I don't know a clear solution....
We could of course change the warning into a hint...

All suggestions welcome.

But for arrays of constant this doesn't applied, no? We use them to substitute the ... in C.

In the 1.1 compiler this is not true anymore. There it is know that the function is external.

Well, warning, hint, my mother lern me that all this kind of message are unaceptable in a good project :)

All suggestions welcome.

Thanks by your attention
Your friend,
Judison
