As far as I know, FPC object model tries to be compatible with Delphi's. I say this because I do know that what I'm going to tell you works with Delphi. But I'm not sure that it works with FPC. Please read the docs or the source to check it. In Delphi TObject has some class methods that provide a hook to customize the lifecycle of memory: NewInstance and FreeInstance. The default behaviour is to call GetMem asking for InstaceSize bytes. You can override NewInstace to return memory from a predetermined location. You should also override FreeInstance accordingly to do nothing. Another possibility is to call InitInstance (or the constructor using assembler, for that matter) on some arbitrary buffer. Check the source for constructor calls. -- saludos, Nico Aragón _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
