    Hi,

    i am currently coding a small dll-project without classes, but i use a lot of data types like

    type TTimeOut = longword;

    and of course i use this anywhere this timeout data type needs being used. e.g.

    function test(msg: TMsg; Timeout:TTimeOut):TStatus;

    In my case methods and data type definitions are located in separate units.

    It would be nice to see that those datatypes are linked to their definition or (in case they are short, plain basis data types) being completely declared on the functions documentation page.

    regards,
    Denny

      A hotlink in the parameter-table would be nice or a section showing the definition of the data-types in the parameter table.

      I must admit, that for e.g. objects or records this wouldn´t be optimal but for short type declarations, why not?

      Vice versa the page showing the declaration of the type could link to all occurences in the other pages.

      wbr,
      Denny

      Hi, can you explain exactly what you expect to see in the generated documentation ?
      Only a hotlink on TTimeOut ?
      or more ?
