confused why compiler doesn't work #485
Description
Activity
Currently the compiler's error messages are not good enough. The first letter of
contractshould be capitalized:Contract UserProfile.ok my updated code:
Contract UserProfile() {
let owner: Address
let mut username: ByteVec
let mut bio: ByteVec
let mut profilePicHash: ByteVec
let mut followers: Map<Address, U256>
let mut followerCount: U256// Event declaration event NewFollower(Address indexed follower) pub fn __init__(ownerAddress: Address) -> () { assert!(owner == Address::zero(), "Already initialized") owner = ownerAddress username = ByteVec::empty() bio = ByteVec::empty() profilePicHash = ByteVec::empty() followers = Map<Address, U256>() followerCount = 0 } // Check if the caller is the owner fn checkOwner(&self) -> () { assert!(callerAddress!() == self.owner, "Not the owner") } pub fn follow() -> () { let follower = callerAddress!() if !followers.contains_key(&follower) { followers.insert(follower, 1); followerCount += 1 emit NewFollower(follower) } else { let currentCount = followers[&follower]; followers.insert(follower, currentCount + 1); // Do NOT increment followerCount for existing followers } } pub fn setUsername(newUsername: ByteVec) -> () { checkOwner() username = newUsername // Emit event if needed, e.g., emit UsernameUpdated(newUsername) }}
give an error of this:

my contract is this:
contract UserProfile {
let owner: Address
let mut username: ByteVec
let mut bio: ByteVec
let mut profilePicHash: ByteVec
let mut followers: [Address]
}
I get this error every time:
