[fpc-pascal] "Unexpected end of file" when having an open comment after the final "end."

[Thomas Kurz]

Hello Martin,

I've been using Pascal for more than 30 years now, but I must admit I've never before seen the construct you posted.

And it doesn't compile either:

project1.lpr(4,4) Error: Syntax error, "." expected but ";" found

Kind regards,
Thomas

Hi Thomas,

The error is not the file content after "end.".

The error is not having the expected "end;" after "begin".

This works ok:

_________________________

program test;

begin
end;

end.

abc 123
