This has never been allowed. The only thing that was allowed was defining an enum as a default value for integer parameters. But then again, you could also define a char, a floating point value, a string, or really anything as default value for any kind of parameter. The compiler was simply missing any kind of type checking for the default value. > Note that there has always been a > {$MINENUMSIZE 4} in qt4.pas That defines the size, not the type. > Is this intended behaviour ?
