I already RTFM actually :-) My point was that the docs do not state that you can send multiple types within one shot. test([1, 1.456, 'test', -64, 'some string]); I have also read people stating things like this before: "you can use array of const but you can't make functions like writeln because writeln accepts multiple types". But in fact, with array of const, you can use multiple types. Note the difference between: test(['string1', 'string2', 'string3]); // all the same types And: test([1, 1.456, 'test', -64, 'some string]); // different types _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
