on the surface, this would seem to be similar to the C style
preprocessor stuff that takes "macros" like __DATE__ and __TIME__ and
converts them to the current date and time and writes them into the
object code... i did something like this for TP6/BP6 way back in the
day... set those as consts in an include that was rewritten each time by
my preprocessor before the command line compiler was called... actually
using them (ie: forcing them to be included in the binary) required that
at least one const string be used in the execution of the program...
these didn't have to be used in the code but they were included such
that one could see them in the binary when it was viewed via a hex
editor/viewer...
Did you know about this:
===
program Foo;
{$apptype console}
begin
Writeln({$I %DATE%} + ' ' + {$ %TIME%});
Readln;
end.
===
Output:
2010/07/23 10:13:40
===
It's documented here:
