Hi Sven,
Thank you!
I actually find "anonymous method" more verbose than "lambda" in a sentence
:-D .
Then the FPC is really way behind almost any other language :-( . Even C++
added native anonymous methods in C++11, and other languages have had them
for many years :-( .
I can't even imagine my development without them in Delphi any more, I mean
they really revolutionized my code, and allowed me to do things I have never
imagined before. Together with Attributes, and the new RTTI this is the
biggest revolution in Delphi, and transforms it into totally different
language. Now I can get something done with 4-5 lines of code which
otherwise would have required hundreds of lines and declaration of a whole
bunch of additional support classes and code. I mean this is a whole new
ballgame altogether! It is even bigger than the Object Oriented programming
was when it was introduced!
With best regards,
Boian Mitov

No, FPC does currently not support anonymous functions (please don't
call them Lambdas... at least not with that verbose syntax ;) ). We have
a branch where an independant developer started to work on them, but
development there has stalled.
What you might have seen recently on this list was a discussion about a
potential improvement of the syntax (less verbose for simpler cases).
Regards,
Sven
