But that's not part of the Free Pascal documentation.
So it's not available in the documentation of Free Pascal?
Didn't I just write that it is indeed still missing?! (though Michael
seems to have fixed it in the SVN sources, so this fix will (maybe?) be
part of the 2.6.4 documentation)
Who can know when he has to look at the Delphi
documentation (which version?) and when this differs from Free Pascal?
You shouldn't need to look at the Delphi documentation. It's just that I
wanted to answer your question with a source. If I the feature would
have been available in TP and the syntax would be available I would have
linked that. Or the ISO specification or whatever. This has nothing to
do with "this is found in FPC's documentation so you need to look
somewhere else", but I simply digged out a link were this feature is
described.
And to come back to the first sentence of the paragraph: and this is
where you come into play: by raising such questions you can help improve
the documentation.
Regards,
Sven
