In my for loop I used break statement to break loop after some match. But when I compile my code I got error for break:

Error: Illegal expression

Could you help me? I should add some unit?

for i:=0 to length(carsList)-1 do
        begin

             if numer <> carsList[i].numer then
             begin
                  tmpKw2 := carsList[i].rectangleRotate(carsList[i].angle);

                  if((polyLine(tmpKw2,linia.p1.x,linia.p1.y,linia.p2.x,linia.p2.y))) then
                  begin
                       kolizja := true;
                       break:=true;
                       maxV := carsList[i].v;
                       Break;
                  end;
             end;
        end;

The code below works for me:

program Testbreak;

procedure TestBreakInFor;
var
    i : Integer;
begin
  for i := 0 to 10 do begin
    if Odd(i) then
      Break;
  end;
end;

begin
  TestBreakInFor;
  readln;
end.

The reason you are getting the "Illegal expression" error is that you are attempting to use Break as if it were a variable (Break := True) when it is not, it is an execution flow-control instruction, like Continue. Omit the := True and it should compile corrrectly.
