Does not work with fpc trunk
C:\lazarus_latest\examples\dockmanager\package\felasticsite.pas(106,35)
Error: Can't take the address of constant expressions
When a new FPC version imposes such restrictions, then it also should
convert shortcuts like Inc and Dec into macros.
While Inc and Dec were *introduced* into the language as optimization
hints, for using according machine instructions, they *nowadays* are
means to eliminate duplicate code (expressions).
I know about the strange opinions of some FPC developers, which also
require that Inc with an (small) negative amount should raise an
overflow exception, only because an unsigned machine instruction would
do so, on certain machines. Such argumentation is ridiculous, with
regards to the Wirthian pragmas.
All fine and good. But it doesn't help, unless you convince the fpc
developers.
Eventually the new Version of FPC will be used, and eventually all code
has to be able to be compiled with it....
For the moment though, you are right. I can not really complain if it
doesn't work for me, simple because I use an unreleased fpc version. do
you think it will be fixed before release?
