X2243 Expression needs no Initialize/Finalize (Delphi)

Go Up to Error and Warning Messages (Delphi) Index

You have attempted to use the standard procedure Finalize on a type that requires no finalization.

program Produce;

  var
    ch : Char;

begin
  Finalize(ch);
end.

In this example, the Delphi type Char needs no finalization.

The usual solution to this problem is to remove the offending use of Finalize.
