Class operators in Freepascal records like in Delphi 2010?

It works fine with FPC 2.5.1(trunk version)

Bummer...Lazarus 0.9.30 seems to be using Freepascal 2.4.2

Just rebuild FPC from source

It's easy

Can I do that AND use the new compiler in Lazarus; overriding the one that comes with it?

Yes, no problem. If you're going to use a newer compiler, I would advice you to upgrade lazarus to trunk version too anyway

LOL this sounds like more work than I wanted to do...I will look into it

So if I upgraded Lazarus to the trunk version, would this have freepascal 2.5.1 with it? Or would I have to download both separately from SVN?

Hang on j, you mean we're already at 2.5.x WTF? I'm still getting used to everything in 2.4.2....

It's been 2.5.1 for a very long time. That's just the version number for the trunk version

Lazarus and FPC are seperate products. Release versions of FPC are just bundled with the Lazarus releases so it's possible to compile programs
