Helllo,
http://www.freepascal.org/bugs/showrec.php3?ID=4387
why is this not an (compiler codegen compatibility) bug?
Daten('BRTF',4) should work like in Delphi (with {$MODE DLEPHI}), with
the Delphi compiler Daten('BRTF',4) writes 'BRTF' and not the pointer to
the string. Try it yourself!
My opinion you should fix this "bug" to keep the Delphi Mode still more
compatible with Delphi And set "not an bug" back to "Unfixed" :)

Bug ID : 4387
Title : Daten.Write('BRTF',4); writes only the pointer to the string,
not the string itself.

Category : Compiler
Bug type : Error
FPC version : 2.0.0
OS : All
Date added : 2005-09-27
Status : Not a bug
Date fixed :
Fixer : Peter
Fix version :
Description:
The following code does not write the 'BRTF' string correctly, but instead the
pointer to the string:
Folgender Code schreibt den 'BRTF' String nicht korrekt, sondern statt 'BRTF'
den Zeiger zur Zeichenkette:
# Register %eax,%edx released
# [13906] Daten.Write('BRTF',4);
movl $4,%ecx
# Register %eax allocated
movl $_$ENGINETRACK$_L31021,%eax
# Register %ebx allocated
movl -4(%ebp),%ebx
# Register %edx allocated
movl (%ebx),%edx
# Register %esi allocated
movl 92(%edx),%esi
movl %eax,%edx
movl %ebx,%eax
call *%esi
.section .data
.balign 4
.globl _$ENGINETRACK$_L31019
_$ENGINETRACK$_L31019:
.globl _$ENGINETRACK$_L31021
_$ENGINETRACK$_L31021:
.long _$ENGINETRACK$_L31020
.long -1,4
.globl _$ENGINETRACK$_L31020
_$ENGINETRACK$_L31020:
.ascii "BRTF\000"

The following code writes the 'BRTF' correct:
Folgender Code schreibt den 'BRTF' String korrekt:
# Register %eax,%edx released
# [13905] Daten.Write(Sign,4);
movl $4,%ecx
# Register %eax allocated
movl
$TC_ENGINETRACK_TENGINETRACK_$_SPEICHEREBRT$TENGINESTREAM$$BOOLEAN_SIGN,%eax
# Register %ebx allocated
movl -4(%ebp),%ebx
# Register %edx allocated
movl (%ebx),%edx
# Register %esi allocated
movl 92(%edx),%esi
movl %eax,%edx
movl %ebx,%eax
call *%esi
.section .data
.balign 4
# [13897] CONST Sign:ARRAY[1..4] OF CHAR='BRTF';
TC_ENGINETRACK_TENGINETRACK_$_SPEICHEREBRT$TENGINESTREAM$$BOOLEAN_SIGN:
.byte 66,82,84,70
-----
Write is/Write Ist:
FUNCTION TEngineStream.Write(CONST Buf;Count:INTEGER):INTEGER;
Comment :
The string is an ansistring which is an pointer that points to some memory
location where the data is stored. The typed const is directly the address of
the data.
