Would it be possible to implement type casts of variables (like in BP) into gpc? Currently, it only seems to know value type casts. What I mean is the following (works in BP): type x=record lo,hi:shortint end; var a:integer; begin with x(a) do begin lo:=10; hi:=1 end; writeln(a) end. -- Frank Heckenbach, Erlangen, Germany heckenb@mi.uni-erlangen.de Turbo Pascal: http://www.mi.uni-erlangen.de/~heckenb/programs.htm Internet links: http://www.mi.uni-erlangen.de/~heckenb/links.htm
