Import/Includes and globals?

[EdzUpParticipant]

Having

Monkey

Global MyVar := 1.0

1	Global MyVar := 1.0

in a separate monkey2 file and then using #Import or #Include to add it into the main source file so you can call the variable from numerous different monkey2 files for example I get the error ‘MyVar not found’ its in there and the whole thing compiles to that point. Anyone have any idea how to import globals into another source file as I dont want to have all the source in one file but instead put all Global declarations in a separate file.

Does this not work for you?

globals.monkey2

Global MyVar := 1.0

start.monkey2

Monkey

[crayon-5cba87fd70069840243775 inline="true" ]#import "globals.monkey2" Function Main:Void() Print MyVar End

1 2 3 4 5 6

[crayon-5cba87fd70069840243775 inline="true" ]#import "globals.monkey2"   Function Main:Void() Print MyVar End

[/crayon]

Nope I get Error : Identifier ‘MyVar’ not found

im currently using the binary v1.0.0

[impixiParticipant]

Interesting.

I’m using 1.0.2 (latest git clone zip) and don’t see that error…

[wiebowParticipant]

Are you using namespaces? Make sure to reference these if you are.

[EdzUpParticipant]

The example impixi up also fails

[peterigzParticipant]

It’s possible something was fixed since v1.0.0 if that code doesn’t work. As Weibow says, either have no namespace at all in each file, or make sure you do have one in each file.

Monkey

Namespace myapp Global myvar:="Hello World"

1 2 3

Namespace myapp   Global myvar:="Hello World"

Monkey

Namespace myapp #import "globals.monkey2" Function Main:Void() Print myvar End

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

Namespace myapp   #import "globals.monkey2" Function Main:Void() Print myvar End

[EdzUpParticipant]

peterigz: Tried and still results in a error :/

[ImmutableOctetParticipant]

@edzup: These examples work here for me, and I’m still on 1.0.1. It even works without declaring a namespace.

You are sure the file’s named correctly, right? Same file extension, too?

[EdzUpParticipant]

Yeah even made sure the files are in the same directory etc.

[peterigzParticipant]

I can recreate this if I use “#include”, instead of “#import”, only works with “#import” (Not sure include exists in monkey2).

Maybe paste or attach the code here?

[EdzUpParticipant]

Here ya go

Monkey

'globals.monkey2 Global MyVar := 1.0 'Main.monkey2 #import "globals.monkey2" Function Main:Void() Print MyVar End

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

'globals.monkey2 Global MyVar := 1.0     'Main.monkey2 #import "globals.monkey2"   Function Main:Void() Print MyVar End

From impixi’s post above

[peterigzParticipant]

Only other thing I can think of is try rebuilding mx2cc, in ted go Build>Scripts>Rebuild mx2cc. If you pulled the latest version from git I think you need to do that as well as the rebuild mods. Otherwise it’s a bit of an odd one that, maybe an OS issue of somekind?

[EdzUpParticipant]

Im gonna download v1.0.2 and put the source into monkey and rebuild to see if that fixes this issue, to me its a weird issue to be honest.

[EdzUpParticipant]

Right a update to v1.0.2 has fixed this issue after recompiling the whole thing it works fine now.

@Mark: I would update the binary to 1.0.2 so this doesnt rear its head again as it does make a brilliant product look bad which is a shame to be honest.
