[fpc-devel]BPW incompatibility: missing feature

[Pavel V. Ozerski]

Hello,
I tried to compile some parts of Borlad's OW with FPC and found
that FPC 1.1 does not support some TP syntax constructions.
Example (has been compiled with BP7 (real-mode target) successfully):

type
 t1=object
  procedure proc(var m);virtual $20;
  constructor init;
 end;
var
 p1:t1;
procedure t1.proc(var m);
 begin
 end;
constructor t1.init;
 begin
 end;
var
 x:integer;
begin
 p1.init;
 p1.proc(x);
end.

FPC does not recognize used here analog of
procedure XXXX(var m); message YYY;
which is used also in OW:"Fatal: Syntax error, ";" expected but
"ordinal const" found". Using -So compiler switch does not help.
