I was trying to understand how to use units in my main 'modules test unit'. they are 'module1.pas', and 'module2.pas'. This is a console program and I would like for both units to be displayed and used in my main unit modules_test:
program modules_test;
uses
SysUtils, module1, module2;
procedure modules_display;
begin
module1;
module2;
end;
end.
here's unit module1:
unit module1;
interface
uses
Classes, SysUtils;
implementation
begin
writeln('this is module 1....');
end.
And module2:
unit module2;
interface
uses
Classes, SysUtils;
implementation
begin
writeln('this is module 2....');
end.
As I'm fairly certain that I'm missing a few things, as well as the errors I get, what would I need to use for this to execute properly?
program modules_test;
{$APPTYPE CONSOLE}
uses
SysUtils, module1, module2;
procedure modules_display;
begin
module1.Test; // Fully qualify the name of the procedure
module2.Test;
end;
begin
modules_display;
ReadLn;
end.
unit module1;
interface
// Declare a procedure that can be called from outside of this unit
procedure Test;
implementation
uses
// Unit references that are exclusively used in the implementation section
Classes, SysUtils;
// This is the implementation of the procedure
procedure Test;
begin
writeln('this is module 1....');
end;
end.
unit module2;
interface
// Declare a procedure that can be called from outside of this unit
procedure Test;
implementation
uses
// Unit references that are exclusively used in the implementation section
Classes, SysUtils;
// This is the implementation of the procedure
procedure Test;
begin
writeln('this is module 2....');
end;
end.
