Delphi dowsn't allow sets with ordinal values larger than 255 too:
That's incorrect. ..... Sets are restricted to a maximum of 256 members, but the ordinal values of the members can be higher.
As I've already posted: sample code below not compile in any Delphi version. You can try it yourself.
type aenum=510..517;
aset = set of aenum;
begin
Writeln(sizeof(aset));
end.Delphi 2005 emits:
Borland Delphi for Win32 compiler version 17.0
