That's still no reason to not use the supported routines. One can even simply recompile the RTL to have the normal routines use libc (a feature that is in production for e.g. OS X) As far as I can see, providing own headers is just a compatibility hazard with no real benefit. _______________________________________________ fpc-devel maillist - fpc-devel@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-devel
