It's always been that way, ie. The defn in the interface rules.
I think by convention, people duplicate the parameters on the impl. Myles. From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Stacey Verner Sent: Friday, 11 April 2008 10:21 a.m. To: NZ Borland Developers Group - Offtopic List Subject: [DUG-Offtopic] Delphi Oddness I have been using Delphi for nearly 10 years and today I discovered something new, and very strange. You can omit the parameters in the implementation of a method. interface type TTest = class public procedure Test(AParameter: String); end; implementation procedure TTest.Test; begin // This works, but it has the parameter "AParameter: Integer". ShowMessage(AParameter); end; Any thoughts on why? To me this could make the code difficult to understand. I checked and it doesn't work if you include empty brackets like "procedure TTest.Test();".
