Using a unit as a record name...

6 Apr 2000

      I don't know what else to call the subject, but here's a fragment of
code that will show what I want to do:

type
  TEDFileIO = object
    Handle : File;
    destructor Close; virtual;
  end;

  destructor TEDFileIO.Close;
  begin
    System.Close(Handle);
  end;

    I'm having slight trouble compiling the latest version (I just started
to use Linux on a regular basis). The last binary version of GPC did not
allow me to do this. If the above does not work, is there a way around it
in which I would not have to change the name of the method? 

See ya!
