Michael says: > - 'const': gives pointer, content read-only In practice the compiler may[1] check for access to the value at compile time and just give you a pointer to the real thing (since it knows you won't change it). With a non-specified parameter it has to make a copy and pass that, which slows everything down. Especially for big parameters, and you shouldn't pass big structs around for that reason.
Moz [1] I assume FPC does this, but don't know for sure. _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
