[fpc-pascal] Initializing record variables

[Marc Santhoff]

Hi,

I have to translate a lot of assignements like this:

particle_t = record
		name: array [0..Pred(16)] of char; 
		longi: integer; 
		pressure: float;
		temperature: double; 
		lati: integer; 
	end;

ibuf: array [0..Pred(2)] of particle_t;

(* raw translation by automatic tool *)
ibuf:=(('zero'#0,0,0.0f,0.0,0),('zero'#0,0,0.0f,0.0,0));

from C to pascal. To make it easier I'd like to write something like:

ibuf: array [0..Pred(2)] of particle_t = ???

analoguous to

i: integer = 42;

Is there any syntax allowing to do so? If yes, it would be very easy to
do instead of addressing each record field by name for any record in the
target array.

TIA,
Marc
