And if Delphi jumps off a cliff so will all FPC developers? Well, I will NOT. While we can't help for the Delphi developers being stupid, we could try and learn from their mistakes and make FPC better! I'm pretty sure many here would agree, that we all choose to use FPC with the hopes that it is BETTER than Delphi, not just a damn second rated clone (always being one step behind Delphi). There are many new designs and improved programming styles or design patterns that reduce (or totally eliminate) the need for such unsafe global variable usage. -- Regards, - Graeme - _______________________________________________ fpGUI - a cross-platform Free Pascal GUI toolkit http://fpgui.sourceforge.net -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus.freepascal.org http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
