Compiler Error 1303
declaration error: Declaration type not allowed within
structure: '<identifier>'
Structure cannot contain String Arrays or
Structure variables: '<identifier>'
Structure definitions not allowed within
other structures Local Structure
declarations are not allowed
Structure datatypes can only be defined globally. Variables of a defined structure
datatype may be declared both globally and locally and passed as function arguments.
INTEGER, LONG_INTEGER, SIGNED_INTEGER, SIGNED_LONG_INTEGER
and STRING are the only SIMPL+ datatypes allowed to be used as structure member
fields. INTEGER and LONG_INTEGER can include 1 and 2 dimensional arrays.
String arrays are not permitted.
The following are examples of this error:
STRUCTURE MyStruct // ok
{
INTEGER i, i1[10], l2[10][20]; // ok
SIGNED_INTEGER si, si1[10], si2[10][20]; // ok
LONG_INTEGER l, l1[10], l2[10][20]; // ok
SIGNED_LONG_INTEGER sl, sl1[10], sl2[10][20]; // ok
STRING s[100]; // ok
STRING sArr[10]; // error – string arrays are not allowed
// within structures
DIGITAL_INPUT di; // error – declaration type not allowed
DIGITAL_OUTPUT do; // error – declaration type not allowed
ANALOG_INPUT ai; // error – declaration type not allowed
ANALOG_INPUT ao; // error – declaration type not allowed
STRING_INPUT si; // error – declaration type not allowed
BUFFER_INPUT bi; // error – declaration type not allowed
STRING_OUTPUT so; // error – declaration type not allowed
STRUCTURE locStruct // error – declaration type not allowed
{
INTEGER x;
}
MyStruct ptr; // error – declaration type not allowed
}
FUNCTION MyFunc()
{
STRUCTURE MyStruct // error – local structures are not
supported
{
INTEGER i, i1[10], l2[10][20];
}
