Hi,
When I want to compile a unit, I get a strange error message:
Warning: Comment level 2 found
The lines involved do contain comments that use brackets {}.
Anybody any ideas what might be causing the compiler messages??

Usually a simple mistake, such as an {open comment that you forgot to close.. they can be tricky to see with your

"Comment level 2 found" is only a warning, so I guess that you get some error message further. "Comment level 2 found" means that you triggered nested comments mechanism. In FPC in objfpc (and fpc and probably some others) modes, comments can be nested, which means that e.g.
{$mode objfpc} { { } begin end.*is not* a valid Pascal program. But in Delphi mode, e.g.
{$mode delphi} { { } begin end.*is* a valid program.
In other words: what you want is probably to just compile your unit in delphi mode, so that nested comments are off.
