Well, well, clearly. One could interpret it that it says that the for statement terminates naturally if not forced by break or exit. It doesn't say what happens with break or exit. The fact that this exception is not documented with an example makes it very ambiguous IMHO. _______________________________________________ fpc-devel maillist - fpc-devel@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-devel
