Hi!

In FPC 1.9.4 there is a bug concerning comparison of a string if it is
empty. The program to test is

Program Bug;

Var SS : ShortString;
    AS : AnsiString;

Begin
  SS := 'asdf';
  AS := 'asdf';
  WriteLn('SS         > '''': ', SS > '');
  WriteLn('Length(SS) >  0: '  , Length(SS) > 0);
  WriteLn('AS         > '''': ', AS > '');
  WriteLn('Length(AS) >  0: '  , Length(AS) > 0);
End.

This should emit 4 times "TRUE" but gives a "FALSE" for the first line.

I compiled it with FPC 1.9.4

Free Pascal Compiler version 1.9.4 [2004/08/12] for i386
Copyright (c) 1993-2004 by Florian Klaempfl

from the Debian package fp-compiler_1.9.4-5_i386.deb.

There is a bug ID 2388 which was marked "Fixed" on 2003-10-24. Since
1.9.4 is newer, I'm concerned this was forgotten. Shall I re-submit this
bug?

No problem here with current cvs:

C:\fpc\tests\webtbs>tw2388
SS         > '': TRUE
Length(SS) >  0: TRUE
AS         > '': TRUE
Length(AS) >  0: TRUE
