Missing argument, how to default an argument / parameter ?

(0) ShareShare

Hello,

Need some help on my confusion for passing parameters when calling a method. As per my understanding, we can defaulted the value of the parameters by assigning the default value inside the bracket of the method ?

I'm creating a private method in my class like below : 

private int revRecCalculateOccurrences(
        TransDate _startDate,
        TransDate _endDate,
        RevRecRecognitionBasis _recognitionBasis = RevRecRecognitionBasis::None)
    {
    .
    .
    }

My expectation is the 3rd parameter is an optional and when it is not define when it is called, it will take the default RevRecRecognitionBasis::None 

 I call this method like this : 

salesLine.RevRecOccurrences = this.revRecCalculateOccurrences(MyDate1, MyDate2);

Is there something wrong, since it is giving me error like this : 

Severity Code Description Project File Line Suppression State
Error 'MyClass.revRecCalculateOccurrences' is missing argument 3 of type 'Enumeration(RevRecRecognitionBasis)'.

Thanks

    Hi Axel,

    May be its compile time error. Build the project and check if its throws error after build completes.

    Thanks,

    You don't need to provide values in optional parameters. Can you try building your custom model as well.
