There is a newer version: 1.12.1

Why is this an issue?

  Code in which all blocks are fenced by begin and end is simple and
  modular to understand. All blocks should use begin..end, except for
  repeat and case blocks.


  While most Delphi structures allow begin and end to be omitted when
  there is only a single statement in the block, doing so often makes code more error-prone and
  difficult to read.


  Also, if another statement is added at a later stage and begin and
  end are not added, the new statement will be unexpectedly outside of the block.
  While the code below may seem correct at a glance, the Exit will always be
  encountered and Foo.Bar will never be run.

if not Assigned(Foo) then
  Writeln('Foo not assigned!');
  Exit;

Foo.Bar;

How to fix it
Surround the statement with begin and end:
if not Assigned(MyObj) then
  Exit;

if not Assigned(MyObj) then
begin
  Exit;
end;
