I was obviously generalized a bit too much. If you really want me to, I can search the mailing list archive to find out who said what. Anyway, it was told many times before that inspecting a property with Getter and Setter methods may change underlying data - so the whole debugging of Properties are frowned upon. I'm simply stating that developers should know what they are doing, and that I have never seen a Delphi developer ever complain about that "possible data change" issue. It's only FPC developers that keep mentioning it. -- Regards, - Graeme - _______________________________________________ fpGUI - a cross-platform Free Pascal GUI toolkit http://opensoft.homeip.net/fpgui/ _______________________________________________ fpc-devel maillist - fpc-devel@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-devel
