[fpc-devel] BitHelpers

[Zeljko Avramovic]

BitHelpers are quite mature now and I would like to see them as part of FreePascal. If devs agree to that, then I would like to discuss what is the best way to include them. As mentioned at https://forum.lazarus.freepascal.org/index.php/topic,41672.msg409880.html#msg409880, Thaddy would like to see them available out of the box (added to syshelp*.inc), but I would prefer to see them as a separate package.

What do you think would be the best way? I can do whatever is better, but I would like to hear your thoutghs first.

BitHelpers info can be found at the beginning of that forum thread, at repo https://bitbucket.org/avra/bithelpers, and in the wiki https://wiki.freepascal.org/BitHelpers.
