It almost feels like you were sitting next to me when I done that as that is exactly what happened
It is my ignorance in not knowing (or having verified) what mode settings are part of mode delphi.
I was more or less expecting (again my ignorance) that using mode delphi would have come close for TS to be able to compile the pasted code for his Delphi 7 version.
Thank you for the corrections and history lesson marcov.No it isn't'. It is just very long ago (before D2-3) when it mattered. See https://docwiki.embarcadero.com/RADS...rings_(Delphi)
The origins for this are that Delphi mostly only supports TP for migration purposes, while FPC also supports it for keeping code in TP form running. That was more important before 2005 than it is now, but because a large body of code (including the core of lazarus) was written in that period, the modes were frozen as is to keep that running.
It has been ages since I last used Delphi so I simply couldn't recall.
