Runs with no issues on 4.2.5. Could be related to #1373?

Just making sure: is /usr/local/share/haxe the nightly version? Or do you have two Haxe installs?

[tobil4sk]

Yes, /usr/local/share/haxe is from Haxe nightly. I only have one version installed at a time.

/usr/local/share/haxe/std/haxe/display/Protocol.hx:32: characters 2-105 : Inline variable initialization must be a constant value

Display.hx and Protocol.hx are part of the Haxe standard library. If the Haxe nightly compiler is producing errors in its own standard library, that seems like a bigger issue, and I personally wouldn't trust any errors it reports about Lime until that issue is resolved.

It's a nightly build....I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that this has nothing to do with lime. There are errors here in the haxe standard library. Lets avoid writing issue reports for compatibility with unofficial versions of haxe. I suggest we close this...
