[fpc-devel] Concatenating huge AnsiStrings

[Bart]

Hi,

Possibly not a real-world problem, but some pet-project of mine has to
deal with it (at least in theory).

What happens if you try to concatenate 2 huge ansistrings, such that
Length(String 1) + Length(String 2) > High(SizeInt)?
All this assuming you have memory enough to perform such an operation ;-)

Will this trigger some sort of error, or will it silently ditch all
characters beyond High(SizeInt), like concatenating two long
shortstrings do if the combined length would be > 255?
