Hi,
The documentation has been re-generated and put on the website.
the fpc/dist/2.4.0/docs directory on the FTP server contains
also a version of the latest docs.
They have been re-generated from version 2.4.0.
Reason for the update is the complete documentation of the DB unit:

I have a a program that will read a string and parse the string to some
sub-strings in sub routine.
I add every character to a local string buffer in sub routine. The code

When I watch the buffer, it display some garbage instead of null string when

If you want Delphi-compatible behaviour, you must add {$mode delphi} at the top
of your program. In the default mode, "string" is

And even then you should initialize strings. They are not quaranteed to be
empty.

Hello Developers
The system expects an application to implement (export) some functions
that are to be linked statically.
I'm using [public] modifier:
function someFunc: Integer cdecl; [public]; alias: '_someFunc';
The linker catches up the function and statically links it with the
system librar

No. And even if we would add a special modifier for that, I don't know how it
could be easily implemented for non-Mac OS X p

By initializing I mean:
str:='';
or some other assignment.
I remember having garbage in strings in Delphi when I assumed they are empty.
Or was
I thought only global variables were initialized to "zero" and local
ones were just cereated on the stack?
