You said you used
DbgArray= array of integer
then I assume this declaration?
procedure ClrDebug(const panels: DbgArray);
If so the parameter is a dynamic array not open array and you cannot
call it with constant array:
var
arr: DbgArray;
begin
ClrDebug([DbgKey, DbgCode1, DbgTx]); //Won't work
SetLength(arr, ...);
arr[0] := ...
...
ClrDebug(arr);// This works
end;
This on the other hand is an open array parameter:
procedure ClrDebug(const panels: array of integer);
Thanks, succinct. So if I understand this correctly it's one of the very
rare cases where one has to write out the type of a parameter in full,
rather than using an earlier declaration.
