There it is again: my pet project: Why doesn't pascal allow circular unit references (at least for classes, like forwards)! I like pascal very much but this is the biggest annoyance! You always have to work around this (put multiple classes in one unit, create interface classes, ...). And now this: I have such cycles, but it worked before. I removed this cycles and it worked as expected. Isn't there a way to force the order? Why isn't it initialized first even if the unit is the first after Forms in the program? If there are uses-cycles via the implementation section why doesn't fpc prioritize interface order?
