Delphi doesn't have a decent containers library. TObjectList is derived
from TList instead as being designed as a wrapper (if Borland had read

No, this assertion is wrong. I'm not saying they *will* add the fore
mentioned functionality, but foreach is part of the .Net standard
constructs. C# has it, as does VB.Net. I expect this has come about as a way

As generics are in a [future?] version of .Net and D9 will implement a *lot*
of new language features in Win32, generics may happen.

Huh? Templates and operator overloading afaik?

The latter. STL is a syntactical nightmare and simply a preprocessor "hack".
You could add a similar, external "hack" to FPC with a few months work.
However, what's the point? Look at Digital Mars D.

We'll have to wait for BorCon04.
If it is .not only, see the .NET faq item.
But it *is* a fairly standard concept (foreach is the widely used
keyword..). It *will* arrive in Win32 at some point (if another Win32
version is released) and so why

Off the top of my head - Digital Mars D - fully compilerd native executable.
There are more.

No it actually says that this will be for Win32 as well.
I see no reason why it would not be.

It appears in automated languages with in language container types.

If it is .not only, see the .NET faq item.
