Hi,

Does GetAppConfigDir(False) work under Windows Vista?  I'm using it in
our applications and we don't have a Vista OS yet to test on.

As far as I understand, Vista uses 'C:\Users\...' and Win2000 and
WinXP uses 'C:\Documents and Settings\...'

Does GetAppConfigDir(False) cater for that?


Yes. It works fine.

[fpc-pascal] fpc 2.3.1 doesn't allow to pass literal constants as formal const parameter

2008-03-05 Thread Vincent Snijders 

Currently fpc 2.3.1 cannot build lazarus anymore. It fails on lines like
MyStream.Write(' ',1);

The write method is declared as
  function Write(const Buffer; Count: Longint): Longint

Why isn't passing literal constant to a formal const parameter allowed 
anymore?
