[fpc-devel] Problem with generic parameter

[Thorsten Engler]

Hi,

 

Independent of what Delphi may support or not (and I agree that at a minimum in $mode Delphi fpc should not require that IFDEF)… 

 

in a modern compiler I would expect the generic type parameter to be optional in this specific scenario and the compiler infer it from the type of the parameters.

 

Cheers,

Thorsten

Hi Sven,

Based on bug#20503 you are in charge of support for "generics"?
Thanks a lot for your work!

What about this incompatibility - is it a known issue?

        {$ifdef FPC}
        if Arrays<TTreeNode>.BinarySearch(changes.m_children,node,j,getComparatorByName) then
        {$else}
        if Arrays.BinarySearch<TTreeNode>(changes.m_children,node,j,getComparatorByName) then
        {$endif}

Thanks,
Gennady

Nope, that's not the same problem. Also the code example of the thread starter did not contain a generic method.

Regards,
Sven
