Hello to all,

While enjoying variant late binding for a couple of month now, I would like to ask for an update on the status of RTTI.

The mORMot developer has designed a work-around for the missing RTTI. This works well.
But it would be (much) nicer to be able to use RTTI without workaround.

Does anybody have some info about the status of this (feature) request ?

If you are referring to http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=26774

Work on it was started by Steve Hildebrandt, but I got the impression that due to the cross-platform nature of FPC he ran into some problems. I may be wrong, though. I do not know enough about the compiler internals to assess the situation.

Michael.
Your assesment is correct.
I have a version that is nearly complete for Windows(for other platforms I have't done anything). But to have RTTI on all platforms, that is still delphi compatible is not possible(at least for me), due to the nature of some architetures / calling conventions. When I have some free time(after the tests for this semester) I will probably be able to post a patch.

Steve
