Yes, but make sure it is RPM/fedora in the title, so the fedora maintainer sees it. A linker version would also be nice. ___ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
[fpc-pascal] inline callback functions?
I’m seeing feature this in other languages and it’s pretty useful. Has anyone ever considered this for Pascal? Instead of declaring a method in the class (or other function) it’s written inline from the callers scope and inherits from that scope. The only advantage is readability since everything appears in one line and it’s cleaner since you don’t pollute the class with methods are only used in a single location and never called directly. procedure TMyClass.FadeOut; var fadeAction: TSpriteAction; begin fadeAction := TAction.ActionWithDuration(self, 2.0); fadeAction.SetEndedAction(@ begin ... // scoped in the calling class so "self" is available end; ); fadeAction.FadeOut; end; Regards, Ryan Joseph ___ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal

Re: [fpc-pascal] Best way to insert bytes into a TBytes variable?
On 02.08.2017 09:29, Michael Van Canneyt wrote: FPC "forces" nothing. It offers a single-byte string TStrings implementation. If you want to use that for Unicode, you indeed have no choice but to use UTF8 or use/write a separate class that uses UTF16. That is why I said that it is less silly ! :) But it does force TStrings siblings to handle single-byte strings (While Delphi forces TStrings siblings to handle 16-bit-word Strings). As a huge count of classes in the RTL (and the LCL and MSEGUI and ..., and in user code) are or use TStrings siblings the compatibility issues and certain other problems are due to happen.
