Why does disabling writing to typed constants (with $J or
$WRITEABLECONST, see
http://www.freepascal.org/docs-html/prog/progsu40.html#x47-450001.1.40)
make it so i cannot use those consts as default values for const
parameters.
In other words, why does this produce an illegal expression when compiling?
===============================
program project1;
{$mode objfpc}{$H+}
{$WRITEABLECONST OFF}
type
TestIntegerType = integer;
const
TestIntegerZero : TestIntegerType = 0;
TestIntegerOne : TestIntegerType = 1;
procedure AcceptTestInteger(const val : TestIntegerType = TestIntegerZero);
begin
end;
begin
AcceptTestInteger();
end.
===============================
I don't see why that's al illegal expression. Is this a compiler bug?
If not, can someone explain to me why this is not allowed?
Thanks,
-SG
