Varible shown at a proceeding level - Snowman12 - 04.06.2011

ok ive een somone fix this error yesterday but i didnt watch how he did it anyway today i got this error for the first time in scripting what do it do

warning 219: local variable "string" shadows a variable at a preceding level

Re: Varible shown at a proceeding level - Backwardsman97 - 04.06.2011

It means that you've declared a variable named 'string' earlier before that declaration. You can just remove the 2nd declaration. Example.

pawn Код:

public MyFunction(playerid)
{
    new string[128];
    /*
        CODE HERE
    */
    new string[128];
    /*
        MORE CODE
    */
    return 1;
}

Would give a warning. This however...

pawn Код:

public MyFunction(playerid)
{
    new string[128];
    /*
        CODE HERE
    */
    return 1;
}

public MyOtherFunction(playerid)
{
    new string[128];
    /*
        CODE HERE
    */
    return 1;
}

Would not. The variable 'string's scope is limited to that function. Unless, of course you made it global by declaring outside any function.
