Delphi Compiler Error
E2183 Dispid clause only allowed in OLE automation section
Reason for the Error & Solution
A dispid has been given to a property which is not in an automated section.
program Produce;
type
Base = class
v : integer;
procedure setV(x : integer);
function getV : integer;
property Value : integer read getV write setV dispid 151;
end;
procedure Base.setV(x : integer);
begin v := x;
end;
function Base.getV : integer;
begin getV := v;
end;
begin
end.
This program attempts to set the dispid for an OLE automation object, but the property has not been declared in an automated section.
program Solve;
type
Base = class
v : integer;
procedure setV(x : integer);
function getV : integer;
automated
property Value : integer read getV write setV dispid 151;
end;
procedure Base.setV(x : integer);
begin v := x;
end;
function Base.getV : integer;
begin getV := v;
end;
begin
end.
To solve the error, you can either remove the dispid clause from the property declaration, or move the property declaration into an automated section.
