Hi All,

I am running Linux Ubuntu 10.10 LTS with Lazarus latest version updated 2 days ago

And WINE running Delphi 5 Enterprise Update 2 and 7 Enterprise (not sure what update) (c) 2002

After installing D5E and D7E I used CCleaner 2.2 (in WINE) to fix the missing file errors & registry problems.

Compiling island_maker1.lpr
island_maker1.lpr(12,1) Fatal: Syntax error, "identifier" expected but "BEGIN" found

thats the lpi file youve quoted, could you quote/attach the lpr file?

heres an example you could compare with. (youre probably just missing ; or something)

program project1;
{$mode objfpc}{$H+}

uses
{$IFDEF UNIX}{$IFDEF UseCThreads}
cthreads,
{$ENDIF}{$ENDIF}
Interfaces, // this includes the LCL widgetset
Forms, Unit1, LResources, Unit2
{ you can add units after this };

{$IFDEF WINDOWS}{$R project1.rc}{$ENDIF}
begin
Application.Title:='Exit';
{$I project1.lrs}
Application.Initialize;
Application.CreateForm(TForm1, Form1);
Application.CreateForm(TForm2, Form2);
Application.Run;
end.

Hi Vannus and all,

max_x := inttostr( max_x_param.text ); // ^^^^^^^^^^^ it is a TEdit main_island.pas(270,41) Error: Incompatible type for arg no. 1: Got "TTranslateString", expected "QWord"

Use StrToInt or StrToIntDef(,0)

Mattias

Hi,

the two hints, you may just ignore them; they just inform you that within the event handler you are not using the parameter.

Then, for the errors:

     max_y := inttostr( max_y_param.text );
//                     ^^^^^^^^^^^ it is a TEdit

inttostr _gets_ an integer as parameter and produces its representation string. You probably wanted to use strtoint, instead.

Cheers, A.

uses
Forms,
Unit1 in 'set_max.pas' {Form1},
Unit2 in 'main_island.pas' {Form2}; <-- semi colon

???

wheres 'program' ?

where 'begin' & 'end' and the coide in between ?

at the minimum there needs to be:-

program hello;
begin
    // do something ie:-  writeln('Hello');
end.

which is usually in proect1.lpr or project1.pas and rarely (if ever) in unit1.pas or unit2.pas

HTH,

HTH who? Me or the OP ;)

The minimum that you have mentioned is already included in the OP's program file, but his uses clause is improperly terminated.

sorry - i thought you were the OP!

The minimum that you have mentioned is already included in the OP's program file, but his uses clause is improperly terminated.

my bad, i ddin't realise the program file was there, was expecting .lpr
