Where in this f[rozen] universe it could possibly find over 4Gbytes of my initialized set? or is it just my f[rozen] brain thinking of the Holidays? Dear Santa, please help. Boba.

Quote: [PascalError] test.pas(1): Unsupported language feature: 'initialized set > 4 bytes in size'. Try declaring the variable type to be a TSysCharSet, ie: const HexNumChars: TSysCharSet = ['0'..'9','A'..'F','a'..'f','h','H','x','X']; Gambit Back to top Boba Guest Posted: Thu Dec 21, 2006 9:11 am    Post subject: Re: 'initialized set > 4 bytes in size' const HexNumChars:set of char=['0'..'9','A'..'F','a'..'f','h','H','x','X']; Back to top Boba Guest Posted: Thu Dec 21, 2006 9:11 am    Post subject: Re: 'initialized set > 4 bytes in size' "Remy Lebeau (TeamB)" <no.spam (AT) no (DOT) spam.com> wrote in message news:45899a72 (AT) newsgroups (DOT) borland.com...

I'm still confused... originaly i had: const HexNumCharsLC=['0'..'9','a'..'f','h','x']; HexNumChars =['0'..'9','A'..'F','H','X']+HexNumCharsLC; and the dcc was as happy as it could be. (does bcc use the same dcc from the $(bcb)\bin dir?) now 'constant expression expected'? i must have screwed up some settings again... was it dcc v.11 that shipped w/bcb3?

I can compile that same code in both BCB 3 and 6. What version are you having a problem with? Quote: was it dcc v.11 that shipped w/bcb3? Yes.

Quote: ... Like I said, I can compile it in BCB 3. Are you trying to compile the code from the command-line or from within the IDE? compiling it separately gives me no trouble at all. it's when i run bcb ide and create a project with a mixture of pas and cpp files - this is why in my op i say BCB. fortunately, that was the only pascal line (out of >800kb total) in that old (>~8 years) project; and i'm sure it was one of borland's compilers used back then. last night i was looking for any patches in borland.com area but all support is now for registered users only. i don't think it is a good idea to first pay for a bad product and later pay more for the tech.support of that tool. The days when there were things to get done easier with borland than ms are gone. Are they?
