OK, I think I can live with this. But I think it would be
preferable to use
a
distinct type name.
I have been proponent of this idea since many years :-)
What type do you want to rename?
THandle. I suspect you have it in lcltypes or so.
IMHO there should be TFileHandle, TWindowHandle etc. Probably on
windows they will all end up referencing windows.THandle, but on other
platforms they may be wildly different.
For a developer as me, this is probably the best solution indeed. I do
manipulate lots of handles in my applications and do not really want to
take care of which basic type they are. I'd be more than happy to
re-engineer my applications diversifying handle types which means to get
rid of all this ambiguity when addressing OS objects. My problem then
would be to use the right handle type where needed
Antonio.
That's one of the reasons dynlibs introduced TLibHandle.
Michael.
