- for anonymous methods exists a branch with an initial
implementation though this is currently on hiatus :(<br>

If i remember correct, core developers stated in mail list
discussion that it was unlikely to be implemented in fpc since
diverges from pascal style coding<br>

Here you need to remember the point of a open source project: if
there is someone who wants it implemented then he/she can implement
it. This was the case here: Some community member stepped up and
started to implement anonymous methods, but then either his time or
his motivation left him...<br>
<br>
Please note that it was the same with me: I wanted to see class
helpers implemented which I did. And now see where I am: I'm the one
who mainly works on generics (and helper types) and have also
revived a platform thought lost forever...<br>

I personally don't consider this a missing feature (after all
delegation itself works already), but more a bug...<br>

<br>
Most of the features should not influence you. Only affecting
changes might be the extended RTTI (increase in executable size if
enabled - and for the RTL units it might need to be enabled) and if
the switch from AnsiString to UnicodeString should come...<br>
