Say I have a record type defined like this:
TAppData = packed record //Total 8 bytes per app
ActiveToken: word; //Matches constant for app if active
Option: word; //16 option bits
ExpDate: word; //Integer TDateTime values
Info: word; //16 info bits
end;
The data is stored in a security dongle memory which can be accessed
only a word at a time by its word address 0..55.
I want to write my code such that the address to the individual member
is calculated automatically so if the record type is modified it will
still work.
var AppData: TAppData absolute 0;
begin
writeln( ptrint( @AppData.Option ));
You can also take a variable without "absolute"
@AppData.Option - @AppData
