This is the conclusion from Jonas' arguments, which he explicitly confirmed when we had the discussion two+ years ago. You're also missing another important type of 'communication': calling non-FPC APIs or even just FPC libraries of possibly different version (see: Run-Time Packages!) Anything that even looks like a subrange cannot be used for these interfaces. -- Regards, Martok Ceterum censeo b32079 esse sanandam. _______________________________________________ fpc-devel maillist - fpc-devel@lists.freepascal.org https://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-devel
