Lycia compiler reports the errors in the source code to the 4gl developer. There are several types of errors, the most common of them being syntax and logical ones.
The table below includes only the most frequent compilation errors.
If you have encountered an error and it is not in this list, you may contact support@querix.com for a detailed information.
Error code |
Error type |
Displayed message |
Example of the erroneous 4gl code |
-101005 |
logical |
The specified variable is not defined in this context. Check that it is spelled correctly and that its DEFINE statement is formatted correctly. |
FUNCTION f() LET a = 1 END FUNCTION |
-101006 |
logical |
A RECORD variable is required
to perform the operation you have requested. For example, if you
have written |
MAIN DEFINE a INT DISPLAY a.* END MAIN |
-101007 |
syntax, logical |
The specified field does not appear to exist in the record. Check the record definition to ensure that the field is spelled correctly. If the record is declared "LIKE" a database table, check the database to ensure that the column exists in the database table. |
MAIN DEFINE r1 RECORD f1 INT, f2 CHAR(32) END RECORD LET r1.f3 = 3 END MAIN |
-101008 |
logical |
An array-type variable is required to perform the operation you have requested. For example, if you have written myarray[10], it must be declared as a 4gl ARRAY. |
MAIN DEFINE f FLOAT LET f[1] = 1 END MAIN |
-101013 |
logical |
A variable is being defined like the specified table but Lycia cannot find this table in the database. Check the table exists and, that a DATABASE statement corresponding to this database appears outside of any functions, reports or main blocks. |
DATABASE auth MAIN DEFINE r LIKE unknown_table.* END MAIN |
-101014 |
logical |
A variable is being defined like the specified column but Lycia cannot find this column in the database. Check the table and column exist and, that a DATABASE statement corresponding to this database appears outside of any functions, reports or main blocks. |
DATABASE auth MAIN DEFINE r LIKE unknown_table.unknown_field END MAIN |
-101016 |
logical |
The specified array size is not a positive INTEGER. |
DEFINE a ARRAY[0] OF INT |
-101020 |
syntax (4gl does not allow this) |
A qualifier specified for a datetime or interval is not valid. |
MAIN DEFINE intr INTERVAL YEAR TO DAY END MAIN |
-101037 |
syntax |
The specified data type does not correspond to a 4gl data type or any user-defined type. Check the typename to ensure, that it is spelled correctly. |
MAIN DEFINE a SOMEUNKNOWNTYPE END MAIN |
-101039 |
syntax |
You have declared a menu, but do not appear to have any COMMAND statements. Check the menu declaration to ensure that there is at least one COMMAND statement associated with it. |
MAIN MENU END MENU END MAIN |
-101041 |
logical |
The left hand and right hand sides of the THRU statement do not appear to have any common ancestors. In order to use THRU, the left hand and right hand sides must both be within the same record: myrec.f1 THRU myrec.f5, myrec.subrec.fld1 THRU myrec.subrec.fld3, and myrec.f2 THRU myrec.subrec.fld1 are both valid, but myrec.f1 THRU otherrec.f5 is not. |
MAIN DEFINE a ARRAY[4] OF INT DISPLAY a[1] THRU a[4] END MAIN |
-101046 |
logical (aggregate function can be used only inside the SqlStmts) |
Lycia does not know how to create an aggregate from the specified function, or an aggregate function is not within a report event block. |
MAIN CALL COUNT(*) END MAIN |
-101049 |
syntax |
RUN statements can either specify WITHOUT WAITING or RETURNING but not both. WITHOUT WAITING indicates that the call should return immediately without waiting for the process to terminate, RETURNING indicates that you wish to know the return code of the process. You cannot get the exit code if you do not wait for the process to exit. |
MAIN DEFINE a INT RUN "cmd.exe" WITHOUT WAITING RETURNING a END MAIN |
-101051 |
syntax |
The between operator must be followed by an expression of the for X AND Y. |
DATABASE auth MAIN DEFINE a INT SELECT col_1{int} FROM tab_test WHERE col_1 BETWEEN 1 OR 2 END MAIN |
-101056 |
syntax (RDBMS restriction) |
The select statement is invalid. |
DATABASE auth MAIN SELECT * FROM customer INTO TEMP cust_user UNION SELECT * FROM users END MAIN (Only the formed data sets can be put to temp. ) |
-101057 |
logical |
You have used a SELECT statement in the context of a value outside of an SQL statement. For LET val = SELECT something FROM mytable or RETURN SELECT something FROM mytable). Lycia cannot currently perform this operation. This error may occur when a statement which takes an optional argument (such as RETURN) is followed by a SELECT statement. You can prevent it by adding a ";" symbol to the end of the first statement. |
DATABASE auth MAIN DEFINE a INT LET a = SELECT col_1 FROM tab_test WHERE col_2 = "somevalue" END MAIN |
-101060 |
logical |
An attempt has been made to use both SQL variable placeholders (?) and program variables in the same statement: DEFINE myval integer DECLARE mycrs CURSOR FOR SELECT * from mytable where mytable.col1 = myval and mytable.col2 = ? You must use either "?" placeholders (in which case the parameters must be supplied when the cursor is opened), or program variables. |
DATABASE auth MAIN DEFINE str CHAR(32) LET str = "something" DECLARE mycrs CURSOR FOR SELECT * from tab_test WHERE tab_test.col_1 = ? and tab_test.col_2 = str END MAIN |
-101062 |
logical |
You cannot use SQL placeholders in an inline SQL statement, since the compiler needs to know the values to assign to the placeholders in order to execute the statement. |
DATABASE auth MAIN SELECT * FROM tab_test WHERE col_1 = ? END MAIN |
-101067 |
logical |
The specified array dimensions is not a positive INTEGER. |
DATABASE auth MAIN DEFINE darr1 DYNAMIC ARRAY WITH -1 DIMENSIONS OF INTEGER END MAIN |
-101068 |
logical |
The specified field has already been defined in this RECORD. |
MAIN DEFINE a RECORD f1 INT, f1 CHAR(32) END RECORD END MAIN |
-101069 |
syntax |
Variables of the RECORDdata type cannot be referenced in the current context. To use a RECORD variable in the current context, it must be expanded with the '.*' syntax. |
FUNCTION f(r) DEFINE r RECORD field1 INT, field2 CHAR(32) END RECORD RETURN r END FUNCTION |

license |
Not enough license seats for Lycia Compiler service. Your license does not have any available Lycia Compiler seats. This may happen because all the seats are occupied, your license does not include the seats of the required type or your license has expired. To free the seats, terminate the processes which occupies them (e.g., close a running 4GL program to free a Lycia runtime seat). Contact Querix support team (support@querix.com) to add new seats to your license or to renew the license. |
