Right :-(
Little chance, because they made this change on purpose:
http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/User_Changes_2.4.0#Treating_direct-mapped_properties_as_regular_fields
Eventually the new Version of FPC will be used, and eventually all
code has to be able to be compiled with it....
I have several suggestions:
- apply the new rules only in $mode Delphi
The reason for the change was better following the object pascal language: the use
of properties should not depend on the way they are implemented. This is not a
Delphi only choice.
- use an (global) switch to treat Inc/Dec as macros or operators
- introduce new Incr/Decr macros, to reduce required editing of legacy code
I'll have to get a SVN version of fpc, before I can start fixing my code...
And if so, I only will replace Inc/Dec by my added Incr/Decr macros. You
can do so yourself, already. Feel free to update my code accordingly :-)
You need to update your compiler version anyway, if you want to start implementing
macros with parameters. ;-)
