Hi,
FPC 2.2.4 refers.
Two of the four hint directives listed on page 11 of the Reference Guide for
Free Pascal, version 2.2.4 don't work as described in the manual.
The "Experimental" directive causes the compiler to stop with a syntax error.
The example program listed on page 11 doesn't compile because of
the "Experimental" directive.
The "Unimplemented" directive seems to be ignored. (This directive is
mis-spelt in the manual, but this, I am quite sure, is not the cause of the
compile time error).
Are these known issues?
The directives listed on page 11 of the manual issue warnings during
compilation. Why are they refered to as "Hint" directives?
Regards,
Nino
