Sorry, I got my email all twisted - to many open windows at the same time. My issue is with the TStream.WriteBuffer's short description. It reads as follows... "Writes data from the stream to the buffer" And now the Kylix 3 description of TStream.WriteBuffer. "Writes Count bytes from Buffer onto the stream and advances "the current position of the stream by Count bytes." As you can see, the FPC documentation describes the flow of data from the stream to the buffer parameter, but Kylix/Delphi describes it other way round - data from the Buffer is written to the Stream. In FPC's docs, the WriteBuffer and ReadBuffer short descriptions are saying the same thing. Suggesting a simple documentation copy-and-paste error. The correct short description for TStream.WriteBuffer should be something like... "Writes data from the buffer to the stream" ...though the Kylix/Delphi short description is much better and clearer. :) -- Regards, - Graeme - _______________________________________________ fpGUI - a cross-platform Free Pascal GUI toolkit http://fpgui.sourceforge.net _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
