BTW, recently there are many discussions about language features, now I
would like to ask one question, why the following is not supported in
pascal:
procedure SomeThing(AParam: array[0..10] of Integer);
or
procedure SomeThing(Aparam: string[10]);
But you have to define a custom type first?
Delphi compatibility and something else (should be documented on the wiki,
but I forgot on which release).
I wonder if I could ask a related question. I was looking at some parser
code yesterday that I wrote years ago, and that still compiles with TP5,
TopSpeed and so on. It's got a couple of underlying string[255]
declarations: is there a 16-bit Unicode equivalent which uses this syntax?
