Why am I getting so many compiler errors?

I keep getting a large amount of compiler errors when opening my model. None of these seem to have anything to do with my model objects or logic. Any idea what these could be related to? Unfortunately, due to the proprietary nature of it, I cannot share my model.

Now flexsim is crashing on open (not even opening a model). Seeing an ntdll.dll exception in Visual Studio.

Exception thrown at 0x00000000773B81ED (ntdll.dll) in flexsim.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation writing location 0x00000000000E0C18.

After a restart, flexsim no longer crashing on open.

Are you still having issues with those syntax errors?

It looks like something in your model is messing up the FlexScript compiler.

If you are still having issues, please build a non-confidential sample model that demonstrates the problem or post your model in a private question with steps on how to duplicate the issue.

I stripped out all the sensitive information in this attached test model and am still getting the compiler errors.compilererrors.fsm

The problem is in your Global Macros. You are defining row and column, which breaks a lot of the code within FlexSim's UI that uses row and column as local variables.

Also, you are trying to define floating point numbers and identifiers with period characters and parenthesis. Neither of those are valid identifiers for a #define macro definitions. Macro definitions should follow the same rules as local variable identifiers: alphanumeric characters and underscores that don't start with a numeric character.

To avoid collisions and improve readability of macros, most programmers follow the pattern in the user manual examples of using all caps and underscores, such as:

#define MAX_WAIT_TIME 30
#define PROCESS_TIME_TABLE reftable("ProcessingTimesGT")
#define PAINTER_COLUMN 1

These were some rogue definitions that I had neglected to delete from my model. After deleting them, i am good to go. Thanks!
