Hi,
Just curious. What is the history behind the Cardinal data type. As per
the FPC documentation, it is always mapped to the LongWord type. I
presume it is the same in Delphi.
It used to be opposite, if I recall correctly.
Longword used to be Cardinal.
I guess it was changed for Delphi compatibility.
