As I already stated, those are the same arguments that I have heard 30 years ago when people ware asking me why I would use C instead of doing it like them in Assembler. later, why I would use C++ classes, when we has sructures in C++. Why use virtual methods, in C++ instead of using the EC++ without them to “save space”? ... I think history has at least so far always been on the side of my arguments ;-) .

I cannot agree more. Another con: Nobody will search for the term "interface" when he wants reference counting :-( -Michael -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ fpc-devel maillist - fpc-devel@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-devel
