Delphi constants and references
- by Sambatyon
I want to pass constant references to functions in delphi, so I am sure that the referenced object won't change and to save time and memory. So I want to declare a function like
function foo(var const Value : Bar) : Boolean;
however this is not allowed. I thought constant values would be automatically sent as references. However I found out that it is not the case (getting the address of an object before sending it to the function gives me $12F50C and the address of the same object inside the function is $12F564)
What can I do to send constant references?
