[lazarus] "Variant" variable ?

[dvortex]

That's what i was afraid of :o)

well, for the FPC guys: if i put a "record type" together that is a
equivalent to the variant, how hard would it be to put that in the fpc
compiler ? (it can be usefull, althoug i would understand not wanting to
put such a hack in the compiler :o)

Ho well.. back hacking... :o)
