E2010 Incompatible types

I have two units:

unit D8;

interface

uses Darbas;

const
Ilgis = 100;
type
Tmas = array[1..Ilgis] of integer;

and

unit Darbas;

interface
const
  Ilgis = 100;
type
  Tmas = array[1..Ilgis] of integer;

procedure Ieskoti(X:Tmas; m:byte; var nr:byte);

I do call procedure Ieskoti in unit D8 button click event:

procedure TfrmD8.btn4Click(Sender: TObject);
var
nr : Byte;
begin
  Ieskoti(A, n, nr);  //HERE I GET ERROR
end;

and i do get error:

[dcc32 Error] D8.pas(130): E2010 Incompatible types: 'Darbas.Tmas' and 'D8.Tmas'

Yes, this is how Delphi's type system works.

If you define two (static or dynamic) array types at two different places, they will not be assignment-compatible, even if they are "identical".

You need to define your type

type
  Tmas = array[1..Ilgis] of Integer;

once and then refer to this type every time you need it.

For instance, you can choose to define it in Darbas. Then remove the type definition from D8 and instead include Darbas in D8 using a uses clause, which you already do.

unit Darbas;

interface

const
  Ilgis = 100;

type
  Tmas = array[1..Ilgis] of Integer;

procedure Ieskoti(X: Tmas; m: Byte; var nr: Byte);

and

unit D8;

interface

uses Darbas;

Everything from the interface section of Darbas will now be visible in D8, including the Ilgis constant and the Tmas type.
