To my best knowledge nobody has experimented with this with FPC. However I can vaguely remember experiments for Delphi (and then I mean native Delphi) have been done. Since the memory manager concept exists there too (though a bit more gritty and less cleanly abstracted) and the language base principles are the same, I think trying to find that and studying should give you the best start. If you get a few steps further in that direction, please report back your findings here. _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
