Thanks Anton for your suggestion, I will apply it. I hope FPC developers will include StringRefCount() to the RTL.
By the way, how do I call internal compiler functions directly (maybe using a tricky way) such as system.fpc_ansistr_incr_ref() and system.fpc_ansistr_decr_ref? I couldn't call those kind of functions from my program, I guest it is caused by compilerproc definition. ----- Original Message ---- From: Anton Tichawa <anton.tich...@chello.at> To: FPC-Pascal users discussions <fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org> Sent: Fri, April 30, 2010 12:44:08 AM Subject: Re: [fpc-pascal] Is there a StringRefCount() equivalence?
