This argument still carries considerable weight, even if those other instances are not addressed, by attempting to NOT ADD to the list of areas where discrepancies exist. A worthy goal.
'Worthy Goals' are a personal matter. One person may consider 'making lots of money' a worthy goal. Another might find it futile.In our case, I think that if both parties agree to act on an equal footing, then it could indeed be a worthy goal to minimize differences.
But we've received absolutely zero 'cooperation' from Delphi in this respect. Every feature that arrived first in FPC was done differently in Delphi later.
So you'll understand then that I don't feel inclined to minimize the differences when I am of the opinion that their approach is inferior to ours. Michael.
