Message The scalar variable "<var>"<declared in> is fetched but not initialized<inlineinfo>. And there may be other such fetches of this variable that have not been reported in this compilation. Description A variable's value has been used without being set. This might not have been what you intended. The algorithms that detect this situation only report it once for a given variable, and not necessarily at the first use of the uninitialized value. User Action Provide the variable with a value before the variable is used. If you only provide a value for the use reported here, you may find that when you recompile your program another uninitialized use is detected. It is best to initialize variables as close as possible to the point of declaration.
