If you can tell what kind of type it is from the path then just pass in a
pointer and cast the contents of the pointer to the appropriate type.

Subject: [DUG]: Load different types from one procedure?


Is there a way I can load different record type objects using one procedure?

I have

TType1 = record
            intone: integer;
            strone: array[1..49] of char;
end;

TType2 = record
            strtwo: array[1..49] of char;
            Inttwo: integer;
end;

These types are stored as files on my system, but I want to have one
procedure/function that can load either type by simply passing the path, can
you do this.

I have something like

Procedure LoadTemplate(Path: String; var Data: array of char);

But this doesn't work as the type and array are not compatible.

I think this could be a Monday morning thing, but I have had two coffee'
s!!!!
