Xsharp 2.8 compilation

Hello everyone, compiling my old application I have this warning, I don't understand.
Everything worked with previous versions.
See Attachment.
Thank you

Hi Danilo,

That's a compiler bug, with so many changes it was inevitable that some problem would slip through. Can you please zip your project which causes this and send it to me to have a look? Unless Robert can already tell what the problem is, by looking at the callstack..

Chris,
No I have no idea what the problem is. Need to see an example.

I sent Chris the application and necessary dlls.

Danilo, thanks, it's because of this code:

Code: Select all

BEGIN NAMESPACE xsharp.BackupService // compiler crash here
CLASS Anything
END CLASS
END NAMESPACE

Apparently Robert has added a hidden bomb in the compiler which crashes everything when a programmer hijacks the "XSharp" namespace and misspells it on top (incorrect casing)!

I am joking of course, it is just a compiler bug. In order to fix this problem please use a different name for the xsharp.BackupService namespace. Or type it as XSharp.BackupService, it seems that this works as well, if you still want to use "XSharp" as the first part.

Chris, Danilo,
You can't use that namespace. It's mine.
