I load a bunch of variables from an INI file at build start. This used to work in previous updates?
If I uncheck the failing (which is also the first) variable from the list, it errors on the new first variable in the list. The file exists; it does contain the variable names in question. Has anything changed in FB?
error:
Loading variables from INI file: D:\Delphi\3p\NexusDB3Build\settings.ini
Error setting variable BackupDirectory
File contents:
[FBVariables]
BackupDirectory=\myserver\x\NexusDB Test
BaseFTPDir=/
Build2005=False
etc
Are the variables actually defined in the project? Will test this when I get to the office. We’ve been doing a lot of work on variables over the last few days, finding things that worked more by accident than design in FB7 that we did not account for with the FB8 parser.
It’s a regression bug introduced about 5 minutes before I uploaded that build last night while fixing another bug. Will upload another build shortly.
This build should fix it :

We’re still testing some changes to the expression parser/evaluator and hope to have an official update out later today.
Thanks, this gets me past the loading of INI variables.
