Thanks, I suspected as much.

Sadly, its not a short process -  I'd hate to think how many  thousands of lines of code... will take me weeks I guess. BTW anyway of quickly counting how many forms/modules etc and lines of code in a project?

There is two reasons for that.

- This coding way was really dangerous because many things cas appen to
your variable even during the loop time.

- Benoit have to remove  this ability to resolve a conflit on the new Just
In Time Compiler.

So you  have to walk your code

But its not so long

Just comment the variable in the header
'Private MyVar as type
And add it  in the fuctions
Dim MyVar as type.

We win also the ability to declare var every were in the code.
Even :

for myVar as Integer = 0 to 10
Next

Hi List,

Recently after a few  years I upgraded a machine to Mint 19.1 and latest
ppa stable gambas.

My long running code won't run properly .... wherever I have a loop
variable  which was declared  in the general declarations at the top of
the form rather than in a sub, an error comes up saying 'loop variable
can't be global'.

Has this changed in Gambas in recent times to make things stricter or is
there a setting I can switch on to allow the old code to run, or do I
have to go through my whole program and fix my bad coding.

Thanks

Richard
