What's wrong here? (ZX-24n)
Code:
dim ShutterAuto as boolean = True

Sub Main()
   console.write(cstr(ShutterAuto))
end sub

What are you seeing? The release candidate that we're currently testing compiles that code without error for both native mode and VM mode.

It reports False. The boolean does not seem initialized.

Confirmed. There is an error in the native mode code generation for the v2.8.x series. The issue was corrected some time ago in our current development version. The correction will be in the upcoming release.

In the mean time, a workaround is to add explicit initialization in Main().
Code:
dim ShutterAuto as boolean

Sub Main()
   ShutterAuto as boolean = True
   console.write(cstr(ShutterAuto))
end sub

An alternate workaround is to install the Beta version posted for the object extension testing.

That one has a SPDR0 error for ZX-24ns, so I'll just set the boolean in
Main. Thanks.

dim ShutterAuto as boolean

Sub Main()
   ShutterAuto as boolean = True
   console.write(cstr(ShutterAuto))
end sub

Just wondering: in the above, first line of Main(), is the "as boolean" essential since the variable has been already been declared?

Code:

   ShutterAuto as boolean = True

Surely a typo. That won't compile.

Indeed. I didn't review it carefully enough after the copy/paste.
