I just checked out the new bpcompat sources... Did anyone actually *USED* the OBJECTS.PAS unit???
Yes - see; TESTOBJ.PAS TESTCOLL.PAS TESTSTRM.PAS
More specifically, the TStream Put and Get methods?
Yes - see; TESTSTRM.PAS
They are obviously broken...
They worked okay in my tests. See the procedure "TestPut" in TESTSTRM.PAS. Can you post a copy of the code that is broken?
BTW: it is stated clearly that TStream and some of the other objects are not complete - so, if anyone wants to implement the missing bits, please feel free to do so!
Ok, so those are difficult parts, but still... What I need is two things: a way to tell what is the real type of an object like the typeof() function (didn't check if it was there), and a way to construct an object of an type as returned by typeof().
It isn't there - but you could write it :-). We would greatly welcome all contributions to the bpcompat package!
