Node:Protected Parameters, Next:, Up:Parameters



Parameters declared as protected or const

All the following works in GPC:

procedure Foo (protected a, b, c: Integer);    { 3 arguments }
procedure Foo (a, b, c, protected: Integer);   { 4 arguments }
procedure Foo (a, b, protected, c: Integer);   { 4 arguments }
procedure Foo (protected: Integer);            { 1 argument  }
procedure Foo (var protected: Integer);        { 1 argument  }
procedure Foo (protected protected: Integer);  { 1 argument  }

Furthermore, GPC supports const, according to BP, which is equivalent to either protected or protected var, up to the compiler's discretion.
