Hi, I agree. This basically means that cmdline dialect options should take precedence over any listed in the file itself. This should not cause anybody much trouble, if any, except in some rare makefiles, and even that should be an easy fix. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Scott Moore Date: Tue, Feb 2, 2010 at 1:38 PM Subject: Re: New P5 available To: Rugxulo In retrospect, it's probably not a good idea that GPC tries to take compiler directives from the programs. There should be a way to turn off GPC's parse of the compiler directives, since that would make GPC defacto non-standard. It should have been shut off with the --standard-pascal switch.
