iOS Question Unexpected error - Object was not initialized

[jai]

An app that worked normal last week is suddenly throwing error "Object was not initialized (UILabel)". No changes have been made since the last run. The object (label) is entered via designer and declared with-

    Private lblSeparationFromMainBanner As Label

Part of the code. Error occurs on the first line of the following code block-

    lblSeparationFromMainBanner.Left=0
    lblSeparationFromMainBanner.Width=ScreenWidth
    lblSeparationFromMainBanner.Height=1dip*Vscale
    If IsVertical=False Then lblSeparationFromMainBanner.Height=1dip*Hscale
    lblSeparationFromMainBanner.Top=Buttons(1).top+Buttons(1).height+1dip
    lblSeparationFromMainBanner.BringToFront
    If IsAdsAllowd Then
        lblSeparationFromMainBanner.Visible=True
    Else
        lblSeparationFromMainBanner.Visible=False
    End If

I am using B4i ver 8.80 and an iPhone 14. What could be causing it?

Full error message-

SuperCrossPercentPayoutQ(4)=35
iPhone Horizontal=false
Error occurred on line: 3407 (Main)
Object was not initialized (UILabel)

lblSeparationFromMainBanner.Left=0

when is the code executed? in an event?

During the initial setup of the first screen. No events should have triggered by this point. Is there anything specific I should look for?

I cannot say why the label isn't initialized, however you can check it:

If lblSeparationFromMainBanner.IsInitialized = False Then Return

Hard to diagnose on the face of it. I suspect the problem may have stemmed from elsewhere; corrupt source file or long folder name. I recopied a fresh new folder from backup and renamed it in shorter size (original folder name was over 70 chracters long). It now compiles and runs normal in v8.80.

Thanks for your responses!
