It doesn't matter whether it's minor. Building has already started and we
definitely won't start that again for something like this.

The default of $J will change in *no* existing mode as that will break
backwards compatibility. It doesn't matter whether it's a major release or
not.

Can we make the {$J-} as default in fpc and objfpc mode for the next major
release?

I thought such a minor fix that don't break any codes could be included.

They were used mainly back at TP times to have procedure local static
variables (cause that is how they behave as inside procedures).

Patches are welcome also for that.
The option must be either hidden for compiler versions that do not
support it, or there must be a clear note / hint about it.

No one seems to care to implement it, so if you badly need it:  sj.patch

Apply in compiler directory (please checkout r37430 at least), I only svn
diff there, not in the top level directory (I have modifications to certain
packages).



Now a patch has been integrated for this , perhaps it could be added to

BTW why would anyone want
{$WRITEABLECONST ON}

writable constants is an oxymoron and goes against the whole philosophy

Since it is already largely uploaded, no. We are only waiting on some
targets.

Well, I don't like such approach. I prefer using my own shell script that I
can configure for many purposes and conditions such as build release, build
debug, build test, build deploy, etc. which each has different compiler
setting with custom before/after action.

Thank you, both to Leledumbo and Sven. Will this patch be available in the next
