[Gtk2forpascal-devel] Fw: [lazarus-dev] patch for gtk2 for pascal

[Mattias G. <nc-...@ne...>]

Should we apply this patch?
It sounds useful, but it will break existing gtk2 applications.

Subject: [lazarus-dev] patch for gtk2 for pascal


 Hello,

Mattias, can you please commit this patch for GTK2 for pascal. It mainly 
replace all macros argument of type pointer by an untyped argument. For 
example 

function GTK_IS_RANGE(obj:Pointer) : boolean; 
becomes 
function GTK_IS_RANGE(const obj) : boolean;

As it was initially (in C code) a macro. This also allow saving a lot of
ifdef 
gtk2 in lazarus while keeping current code able to compile. Also these
macros 
should accept every king of types and just test if it is a pointer to a
valid 
range object. So I think is should be a const parameter.

Mazen,
