Accessing data stored in another Delphi block
In Unit2 of my program, I have the following code:
TValue = Record
NewValue,
OldValue,
SavedValue : Double;
end;
TData = Class(TObject)
Public
EconomicGrowth : TValue;
Inflation : TValue;
Unemployment : TValue;
CurrentAccountPosition : TValue;
AggregateSupply : TValue;
AggregateDemand : TValue;
ADGovernmentSpending : TValue;
ADConsumption : TValue;
ADInvestment : TValue;
ADNetExports : TValue;
OverallTaxation : TValue;
GovernmentSpending : TValue;
InterestRates : TValue;
IncomeTax : TValue;
Benefits : TValue;
TrainingEducationSpending : TValue;
End;
Then I declare Data: TData in Var.
when i try to do the following in Unit1:
ShowMessage(FloatToStr(Unit2.Data.Inflation.SavedValue));
I am getting EAccessViolation message. Is there a way to access the data stored in "Data" from Unit1 without error?

@ Hendriksen123, initialize the variable Data
before using it? EAccessViolation
is an exception class for invalid memory access errors and usually occurs when your code is trying to access an object that has not been created (initialized) or has already been destroyed.
try using Data := TData.Create;
and then you can use Data
var.

procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
var

begin

ShowMessage(FloatToStr(vData.EconomicGrowth.SavedValue));
end;
end.
It works
