Well... seems like you didn't notice this feature yet :D
I'm talking about this:
=== source begin ===
procedure SomeProc;
var
somevar: Integer = 42;
begin
end;
=== source end ===
This works in FPC, but doesn't in Delphi ;)

I dont like to take local variable initialization for granted.
Even if the manual says that its guaranteed that a local variable will
start with 0,
i prefer to initialize everything to a known value myself.
An aditional
Move $varaddress, 00
at startup wont slow things down noticeably when your pc is running at 2ghz...
This unit needs to take care of big endian vs. low endian (maybe a $define ?)
When i wrote that code i did not pay attention to this...
Anything more complex (like interacting with DHCP server) would be too
complex and probably dependent on external units (like synapse x lnet
etc). Some people might prefer to use other library instead of the
default choosen one, etc...

Some time ago someone asked for a library able to do network
calculations.
Here is something that might evolve into such library :
<SNIP>
Function NetMaskToHostMask(NetMask : TNetworkIP): TNetworkIP;
Begin
Result.Mode := False;
NetMask.Mode := False;
Result.IP := NetMask.IP Xor %11111111111111111111111111111111;
End;
<SNIP>
I didn't know that freepascal handled binary formatted numbers?!?
%11111111111111111111111111111111
There are often new things one can learn about what FPC supports ;) (though
binary numbers are already old for me ^^)
The most recent finding (at least for me) was the abbility to initialize
local variables.

Sven
