[fpc-pascal] Set size limit

[Daniel Gaspary]

Hi,

   I am trying to create a Set Type...

   TMyEnum = (me1, me2, me3); // more than 500 elements

   TMySet = set of TMyEnum;

...but I get the following error:

"Error: illegal type declaration of set elements" [1]

The problem seems to be that TMyEnum has more than 256 elements.

Can I specify such Set with some compiler option ?

My fpc is pre 2.6, any change on new versions concerning Sets limits?

Thanks.

[1] A more specific message would help too. :)
