Only if you stipulate that you have to remain ignorant of the function internals. The TObject is converted back and forth from a LongInt in order to store it anyway (see GetObject and PutObject). > The fact that -1 doesn't work > is therefor not a bug (unless you can have 1 byte sized objects). var x: longint; x := -1; // Four bytes (May the source be with you).
