Compile error

[Marc van Cauwenberghe]

Hello Paul,

I copied a folder from an other computer to the place that I usually keep my source. I first renamed a folder with that same name. On compiling I get an error.
Any idea how to handle this?

One of the files you copied from the other folder is probably an .INC, and it contains another statement establishing an equate that has already been established in an earlier .INC in your code. You need to search your .INC files for that equate.

It would be helpful to keep the CODEGEN_ files that FF generates during compilation. Go to the "Project/Project Properties", under the General tab, and UN-check "Delete generated code after compile". Now you can also search the FF files to see if the equate in you newly-copied file is in conflict with an equate established by FF.

You're looking for "%LOCALE_USER_DEFAULT"

Hello John,

There were no 2 declarations, very strange!!! I did have a lot of trouble due to the fact that I renamed my old project directory 'RegComp' to 'RegCompOld'. There were now 2 projects called RegComp so FF lost it from there on I think. I rar'd 'RegCompOld'. Did some tuning to the *.fpj and the Firefly *.ini and got it working again.

Thanks anyway.

It's good news that you got it working!

After I make a problem report followed by a solution, I like to pass on to Paul all the details so that he can verify if needed.

Do you recall in detail what changes you made?
