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
That is exactly why I am a proponent of this mechanism.
Just tell me how to push forward with you 8-)
Antonio.
Michael.
