[fpc-pascal] Strange compile error

[Darius Blaszyk]

Hi Tomas,

That did the trick! I didn't notice the dialogs unit in the implementation section. After removing it everything works fine now. I got opencv running on windows and displaying the webcam feed on a opengl texture. I will put the code on the ccr as soon as I have access again. In the coming period I'll try to get it working for mac and linux as well after which the wrapper unit possibly could be added to the fpc packages hopefully.

Regards, Darius
