Re: [fpc-pascal] TReader Class

2010-02-15 Thread fpc_ml1 
Just interested in this...
 can you not use writestring, readstring?
i know code is different but even on delphi they suggest you use
writestring and readstring.
readvalue is published.
writevalue is not published... since you supposedly should be using
existing routines to write values.

if you have a user-defined type then perhaps your own extension using
writebinary with a pre-code.

[fpc-pascal] command line option to specify record alignment

2010-02-15 Thread Bruce Bauman 
I've read through the documentation several times and cannot figure this
out. The documentation is pretty unclear on this.

 

I want a command line equivalent to {$PACKRECORDS 1}. Is there a way to
do this via the command line?

 

Thanks.

The FPC Class for TReader is missing some procedures as defined in the delphi 
class of the same name


writestr , readstr , writevalue and readvalue.


? Why would you need writestr in a reader ?

Secondly, if I look at TReader, I see:

function ReadString: string;
function ReadWideString: WideString;
function ReadUnicodeString: UnicodeString;
function ReadValue: TValueType;

So what is the definition of your missing read calls ?


Michael.

No, there isn't.

[fpc-pascal] Printing of FPC program listing

2010-02-15 Thread James Gibbens 
Hallo All,
Thank you for the answers and advice I have received. Three new issues if you 
good people don't mind.
1. I want to print my program listing by using the print option in the File 
drop-down menu (Free Pascal IDE window). I click on the Print option but 
nothing happens - the printer is on and it does print. How can I fix that?
2. The window of the Free Pascal IDE is only 21 lines high. Is it possible to 
show more lines on the computer screen? How can I do that?
3. Is it possible to get FPC to use a comma (,) in stead of a period (.) as the 
separator between integer and fraction? The way they do it in Europe?
Thank you for the answers.
James Gibbens.
