[fpc-pascal] for-in loop cast

[Ryan Joseph]

Question I’ve always had. Why do I need to cast “value” to “pointer" otherwise I get: Incompatible types: got "Pointer" expected “TObject” error?. I don’t find this very helpful and it doesn’t really make sense even.

var
  list: TObjectList;
  value: TObject;
begin
  for pointer(value) in list do
    ;
