I think the "suitable RTL" is a reference to an earlier discussion about this subject, where this (pointers) was also said, and that maintaining an native RTL without pointers was not desirable. (and just after that is in the air the guaranteed destructors will start to that, and the systems will divergate more and more ) IOW, only the compiler frontend is shared, nothing else. _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
