I think better OO solution is to create wrapper method around the
external function.
function getenv(const Name: PChar): PChar; cdecl; external 'c';
TEnvironment = class(TObject)
public
function GetEnvironment(const AName: String): String;
end;
function TEnvironment.GetEnvironment(const
Thanks Geno
that works, but could you tell me what should i do for an external
variable,
var environ: ppchar; cvar; external;

This particular function could be declared as this:
TEnvironment = class
public
class function GetEnvironment(const Name: PChar): PChar;
These files add kqueue to the FreeBSD rtl. the new FreeBSD.pas file
will need to be put in rtl/freebsd dir. I think the kqueue.inc files
should be in common BSD dir as 3 out of 4 major bsds (darwin being one)
now support it. demo-kqueue1.pas is a simple process watching example.

if 3 out of the 4 major bsds support it shouldn't it be in a generic bsd
unit?

It should be split into include which belong to BSD and specific OS
units which belong to specific OS dirs which use those includes.

i disagree, thats forcing unnessacery extra ifdefs into user code for no
good reason.
imho if something is availible on muliple operating systems it should be
availible in the same unit if at all possible.

It will force users into {$ifdefs} anyhow because older versions
(especialy macosX where it's only since 10.3) won't work with it.

If you drive this too far, you end up with a unit per function. Moreover,
in time, the BSDs without it will get more rare.
