The records-with-methods feature originates from .NET, but some cases were made that they were also added to restrict the search for methods for duck-type style other new delphi features like for..in, and similar future expansion. Probably when these features are more closely regarded, additional reasons/behaviour will pop up. A very rough summary of the msgs and (IRC-)discussions about the newer delphi features can be found here: http://www.stack.nl/~marcov/delphilater.txt _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
