Aha, great, didn't know we had something in this direction. But correct me if I am wrong, but this wouldn't work in my case, because my function writes the class to a stream in the end of it, so it needs to know which type T is. If the type is TSomeClass or a descendent, then it will write each field of the class to the stream. But in a generic class/function there is no way to ask if T is an int, or is an TSomeClass, or am I missing some way of writing code that is different for various possible types? thanks, -- Felipe Monteiro de Carvalho _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
