Not, or at least not enough to be robust. A lot of C headers is based on (macro,define) substitution, IOW it needs context of use to obtain the full meaning. This is also why the header conversion tool only works to a certain degree. If headers are reasonably clean it can work ok. If you have hundreds of macros and special constructs it needs manual work. (for which I can't imagine a solution, even in theory). _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
