​I altered the code so that it works in 2.6.2:

=== test program ===
program test;
{$mode objfpc}{$H+}
uses tree;
type
  TIntTree = class(specialize TTree<Integer>)
  public
    function Clone: TIntTree;
  end;

function TIntTree.Clone: TIntTree;
begin
  Result := TIntTree.Create(Data, FParent);
  DoClone(Result);
end;

var
  it1, it2 : TIntTree;
begin
  it1 := TIntTree.Create(1, nil);
  it2 := it1.Clone;
  WriteLn(it1.ClassName);
  WriteLn(it2.ClassName);
end.​

​=== tree clone code ===​
​type
  generic TTree<T> = class
    ... ...
  protected
    procedure DoClone(Target: TTree);
  public
    ... ...
    function Clone: TTree;
    ... ...
  end;

implementation

procedure TTree.DoClone(Target: TTree);
var
  node: TTree;
begin
  node := FirstChild;
  while node <> nil do begin
    node.Clone.Remove(Target);
    node := node.NextSibling;
  end;
end;

function TTree.Clone: TTree;
begin
  Result := TTree.Create(Data, FParent);
  DoClone(Result);
end;

=======​

​Is there any problem with this solution?

Regards,
Xiangrong​
