Those were always more to aid with the VCL->CLX transition or cohabitation. Those share many common method names, but directives like this allowed to ban/flag some of them (like gethandle, windowhandle etc), making it easier to upgrade/prepare vcl codebases to CLX. Deprecated and platform are a bit more generic. Experimental is mainly to make absolutely clear that not anything published is definitive. IMHO should be used more often. _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
