You can use the file-to-stream bridge. Unit streamio:
Procedure AssignStream(var F: Textfile; Stream: TStream);
Function GetStream(var F: TTextRec) : TStream;
usage:
Var
M : TStream;
F : Text;
l : String;
begin
M:=TMyStream.Create;
Try
AssignStream(F,M);
Reset(F);
// Read your stuff here
ReadLn(L,F);
Close(F);
Finally
FreeAndNil(M);
end;
end;
This will always work.
It took me couple minutes to understand. This is very interesting. It
still double the data in memory, like a TStringList; but I'm glad to
see that. I see that low memory usage equals direct text access with
readln/writeln. But I've no time to mess arround with that now.
It is in an include file (.inc). how can I use such a file without {$i
} ? Like in a use clause?
