What about include files (used a lot in Lazarus LCL) ? You can e.g. separate the interface part from the installation part into separate files (which is standard in ANSI C by using .h files) I use a C compiler (for 8 Bit PICs) that can't link at all. Here you do a kind of "linking" manually by using a main file that includes everything else. GCC has an option to do a kind of "source code linking" by building a huge source from all files that usually are linked as binaries and doing a single compile process on that. -Michael _______________________________________________ fpc-devel maillist - fpc-devel@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-devel
