Ubuntu 18.x x64. FPC 3.3 trunk.
I get handle of '/proc/version' using func below (e.g. handle=22).
Now I want to get file size of that file. and read all contents into
THandleStream. But problem is: THandleSteam.Size gets 0.
I guess THandleStream can override GetSize to get size smarter. Maybe
someone knows how?
It will be very good, to access /proc/... by streams.
Don't use size. Just read data till you get no more data.
Many streams do not have a size. Socket or IO streams as prime examples.
Some of the encoding/decoding streams also do not have a real size.
