Hello. I have definitions:
PluginDir: packed array [0..Pred(16384)] of AnsiChar; sName: AnsiString; When I assign AnsiString to array of Char compiler generates code like this: -4(%ebp) is source string -17252(%ebp) is local temporary array 4(%ebx) is my destination array of char # [411] PluginDir:= sName; movl -4(%ebp),%ecx leal -17252(%ebp),%eax movl $16383,%edx call fpc_ansistr_to_chararray leal 4(%ebx),%edi leal -17252(%ebp),%esi cld movl $4096,%ecx rep movsl The result is copying data twice and as you see array is quite big. Is it not possible to write directly to 4(%ebx)?
