> Registry is not part of rtl because it's not a base unit??? This is my point it uses 200 other f*** units that aren't really needed!
YOU don't use those 200 units, but the UNIT YOU USE needs them. Get the point? Even though you don't, what about other people? FPC is not released just for you, dude. Stop being selfish... > So you are saying if one wants a single 50 line unit & does a complex > procedure eg installi ng 10^10 lines of fpc etc then it is simple? And of > course you have to do this for every version of fpc you want to use! Simple, just grab the installer (win or mac), or take from repository (lin), or compile from source (all). You don't seem to understand the basic concept how modular programming (unit) works, and FPC packages is highly modular. We won't include everything in a single unit, that's SILLY. > And, of course as I've seen, the size of the .exe from v2.2.2 cf v2.6.2 > is twice as large because of all the c*** included by the various uses.. Not really, code size increase can come from anything. Feature support, unstripped binaries, change in debug info format, etc. but so what? How big is that anyway? Twice? You must be kidding, if you do everything properly, the size increase won't even touch 20%. I have an application that I've developed since 2008 (https://code.google.com/p/express-gui) and you can see the "increase" in size of the binaries from time to time (search All Downloads to see everything since 2008). Increase? Yeah if you count backwards... > This is all simple? Not in my dictionary's definition! Dooooooh Then expand it, your dictionary is too localized and narrow -- View this message in context: http://free-pascal-general.1045716.n5.nabble.com/fpc-registry-unit-tp5713265p5713290.html Sent from the Free Pascal - General mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
