Delphi has a packed record capability. Have you tried it?

I certainly don't ;-) Nope. This is why FPC has a {$packrecords C} to turn on such alignment, since it is quite common. I'm not to deep into BCB<->Delphi interoperability, but I assume one can fix that there too. I just don't know about it, and the manual way always work. > In my view, this is one reason not to combine Delphi and C code for exchanging data between DLL's > > I changed from Delphi to C#(.net), and I don't regret it. I think it is much to early to seriously consider .NET, regardless of language Anyway, I work multiplatform, so then .NET is not a serious option (yet). Specially with the delay of Longhorn/Avalon, I postpone .NET even further. I _don't want to rewrite my apps again_ then. > Especially in calling C++ dll's. One can call C++ dlls from Delphi afaik, just not MSVC dlls. Keep languages and implementations apart. - So Microsoft compilers work with other Microsoft compilers - Borland with Borland, - Free Pascal with GNU. etc (Kylix also works with GNU afaik, don't know if that trickled into D6/D7) Yahoo!
