I have a function that gives me the following warning:

[DCC Warning] filename.pas(6939): W1035 Return value of function 'function' might be undefined

The function, however, is clean, small, and does have a known, expected, return value. The first statement in the function is:

Result := '';

and there is no local variable or parameter called Result either.

Is there any kind of pragma-like directive I can surround this method with to remove this warning? This is Delphi 2007.

Unfortunately, the help system on this Delphi installation is shot, so I can't pop up the help for that warning right now.

Anyone know off the top of their head what I can do?
