Type checking of compile time expression has been added to Free Pascal Compile time expression are used in $IF/$IFC, and under mode MacPas, in $SETC
This should hopefully help everyone to find some errors, but if it makes trouble for anyone please let me know. ------- Implementation details: Each subexpression returns its type to the caller, which then can do type check. Since data types of compile time expressions is not well defined, the type system does a best effort. The drawback is that some errors might not be detected. Instead of returning a particular data type, a set of possible data types are returned. This way ambigouos types can be handled. For instance a value of 1 can be both a boolean and and integer.
