1430 :: Undeclared identifier even when .nim file is properly imported

• jarod (orginal) [2015-07-08T08:23:28+02:00] view original

  I keep getting an undeclared identifier error when trying to call a proc from a file. I have two files ABC.nim and XYZ.nim, in ABC I've declared a proc er_in_seq and I'm calling it in XYZ, however it keeps throwing the error. Even though I've defined like so:

  proc er_in_seq*(a: string, desired_seq: seq[string]) : bool =

  I'm really not too sure what is causing this issue. I'm using Nim 0.11.0

  There may be other problems, but calling an argument seq (i.e. the same name as an existing type) is a possible source of trouble. Can't say more without context.

  Ah I should correct that, that's not how it looks in my source. It's actually called desired_seq, but for brevitys sake I altered it. Will update my original post.

  I still can't say what's going wrong without context. There's nothing in the code you've shown that's wrong, so without at least a minimal example that actually exhibits the error, there's nothing to say.

  Hi there, I'm wondering if you had managed to resolve this issue, as I'm running into the same problem.
