Hi,

It's about fpc issue

It seems that TVariantArrayIterator.AtEnd loops for all Dims for no reason, so
have
impact on performance.
*current implementation*
function TVariantArrayIterator.AtEnd: Boolean;
var
i : sizeint;
begin
result:=false;
for i:=0 to Pred(Dims) do
if Coords^[i] >= Bounds^[i].LowBound + Bounds^[i].ElementCount then
result:=true;
end;
*optimized implementation*
function TVariantArrayIterator.AtEnd: Boolean;
var
i : sizeint;
begin
result:=false;
for i:=0 to Pred(Dims) do
if Coords^[i] >= Bounds^[i].LowBound + Bounds^[i].ElementCount then
begin
result:=true;
break;
end;
end;
Or, better yet
var
i : sizeint;
begin
Result:=false;
I:=0;
While (Not Result) and (I<=Pred(Dims)) do
begin
Result:= Coords^[i] >= Bounds^[i].LowBound + Bounds^[i].ElementCount;
Inc(I);
end;
end;
People really don't seem to get booleans, and why they scorn "While" is beyond me. All
these ugly "break" statements :(
You may optimize even more by calculating Max:=pred(dims) once and doing I<=Max;
