Who said that? We discussed the syntax etc. and at least I see good changes to integrate it in trunk as soon as it is ready. Neither Sven nor me would discuss a feature if we are in doubt that it will make it in trunk. > FPC core team has strong > opposition to new features like in Oxygene or Delphi Nextgen/ARC. It is more a matter of doing it properly. It is more an opposition against quickly hacked together stuff without proper testing etc. I am pretty sure that we get ARC soon or later in trunk, if somebody shows enough dedication :) After all, FPC tries to support as much as possible pascal dialects in OSS compiler. But this does not mean, we are supporting everybody's pet dialect ;) _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
