hi,

i tried to work with pointers, but i saw, that even the example didn't work...

>Global i:Int=10
>Global p:Int Ptr=Varptr i
>Global k:Int=Var test

>Building untitled1
>Compiling:untitled1.bmx
>Compile Error: Expecting expression but encountered Var
>[C:/Programme/BlitzMax/tmp/untitled1.bmx;3;14]
>Build Error: failed to compile >C:/Programme/BlitzMax/tmp/untitled1.bmx
>Process complete

i don't really think, that this error is my fault...

i use BlitzMax version 1.18
reinstallation and syncmods => today, the 15th April^^

The docs probably haven't been updated (take a look at the release notes).

You can no longer use 'Var' to de-reference a pointer...
Local i:Int = 10
Local p:Int Ptr = Varptr i
Local k:Int = p[0]'Var p

Print k
