Delphi 11.3 problem with var string parameter

[Zdenek_Vasku]

Hello,

we have problem with "var string" parameter in Delphi 11.3. Delphi 10.2 is ok. After upgrade to 11.3 we see Invalid Class Typecast when we call published method in script and one has var string parameter.

In code:

function myClass.myMethod(ACISF, ARID: integer; AVID: string; var AFileName: string): integer;

myClass is published using DefineClassByRTTI.

In script:

var F:string;

myClass.myMethod(0,0,'MojeDOCX',F)

Execution hangs in
TatCustomScripter.ScrPrepareValue

Is there any problem with Delphi 11.3?

Thank you
Zdenek

Scripter variables are Variants and never initialized. Thus, you need to initialize them yourself:

 IDEScripter1.SourceCode.Text:='var S:string;'#13#10+
                               'begin'#13#10+
                               ' S := '''''#13#10+
                               ' TC.TestCall(10,S);'#13#10+
                               'end;';

So make sure S is a string by initializing it to an empty string, and your script should work.

Perfect. It works.
