Re: [lazarus] TFileStream -> File Type?

[Kris Leech]

thanks for the replies, the idea of extending TFileStream to have the 
same functions as File sounds good, but would really give me what I 
need. To be honest I dont think it is possible, let me explain. Im 
writing a VFS (virtual file system) for fpc, so all files are stored in 
one big file. This big file is accessed as a stream and a file read by 
stream a number of bytes that make up anyone file. This works well so 
far. I get TFileStreams from the VFS which I can read and write to. 
However these 'files' are not compatible with functions etc. that 
require real files... either a path or a file 'pointer'...

Any ideas?
