Well, it's the Delphi way of creating a new type rather than an
alias.
Since they are still assignment compatible, I don't consider it as
a really new type.
Are you sure they are assignment compatible?
I don't have a delphi here, but I'am pretty sure, yes.
It works that way.
The following snippet compiles and gives the expected result in D7
type TMyInteger = type Integer;
procedure TForm1.FormCreate(Sender: TObject);
var my: TMyInteger;
notmy: integer;
begin
my := 10;
notmy := my;
showmessage(inttostr(notmy));
showmessage(inttostr(my));
end;
