This chapter is under development, so don't be too excited about the paragraph below!
This chapter tells you how the source of a valid GNU Pascal program should look like. You can use it as tutorial about the GNU Pascal language, but since the main goal is to document all special GPC features, implementation-dependent stuff, etc., expect a steep learning curve.
This chapter does not cover how to compile your programs and to produce an executable--this is discussed above in section GNU Pascal Command Options.
A source file accepted by GNU Pascal may contain up to one program, zero or more ISO-style Modules, and/or zero or more UCSD-style Units, Units and Modules can be mixed in one project.
One trivial example for a valid GPC source file follows. Note that the below may either be in one source file, or else the Unit and the Program may be in separate source files.
Unit Foo; Interface Procedure Hello; Implementation Procedure Hello; begin (* Hello *) writeln ( 'Hello, world!' ); end (* Hello *); end. Program Bar; uses Foo; begin Hello; end.
A generic GNU Pascal program looks like the following:
Program name ( Input, Output ); import part declaration part begin statement part end.
While the program parameters (usually `Input, Output') are obligatory in ISO Pascal if you want to use `readln' and `writeln', they are optional in GNU Pascal. However if you give parameters to the program headline, they work like ISO requires.
The import part consists either of an ISO-style `import' specification or a UCSD/Borland-style `uses' clause. While `import' is intended to be used with interfaces exported by ISO-10206 Extended Pascal `Modules' and `uses' is intended to be used with `Units', this is not enforced. (See also section uses, section import.)
The declaration part consists of constant, type, variable, procedure, and function declarations in free order.
As an extension, GPC supports a "declaring statement" which can be used in the statement part to declare variables (see section Var).
A generic GNU Pascal Unit looks like the following:
Unit name; Interface import part interface part Implementation implementation part initialization part end.
The name of the unit should coincide with the name of the file with the extension `.pas' or `.p' stripped. (If not, you can tell GPC the file name with `uses foo in 'bar.pas'', see section uses.)
The import part is either empty or contains a `uses' clause to import other Units. It may also consist of an ISO-style `import' specification. Note that the implementation part is not preceeded by a second import part in GPC (see section import).
The interface part consists of constant, type, and variable declarations, procedure and function headings which may be freely mixed.
The implementation part is like the declaration part of a program, but the headers of procedures and functions may be abbreviated: Parameter lists and function return values may be omitted for procedures and functions already declared in the interface part.
The initialization part may be missing, or it may be a `begin' followed by one or more statements, such that the Unit has a statement part between this `begin' and the final `end'. Alternatively, a Unit may have ISO-style Module initializers and finalizers, see section to begin, section to end.
Note that GPC does not check whether all interface declarations are resolved in the same Unit. Procedures and functions which are in fact not used may be omitted, and/or procedures and functions may be implemented somewhere else, even in a different language.
(Under construction. If you are familiar with Extended Pascal Modules, please help!)
Besides `Integer', GNU Pascal supports a large zoo of integer types. Some of them you will find in other compilers, too, but most are GNU extensions, introduced for particular needs. Many of these types are synonyms for each other. In total, GPC provides 20 built-in integer types, plus seven families you can play with. (Four of these "families" are signed and unsigned, packed and unpacked Subrange types; the others are explained below.)
See also: section Subrange Types.
For most purposes, you will always use `Integer', a signed integer type which has the "natural" size of such types for the machine. On most machines GPC runs on, this is a size of 32 bits, so `Integer' usually has a range of `-2147483648..2147483647' (see section Integer).
If you need an unsigned integer type, the "natural" choice is `Cardinal', also called `Word'. Like `Integer', it has 32 bits on most machines and thus a range of `0..4294967295' (see section Cardinal, section Word).
These natural integer types should be your first choice for best performance. For instance on an Intel X86 processor operations with `Integer' usually work faster than operations with shorter integer types like `ShortInt' or `ByteInt' (see below).
`Integer', `Cardinal', and `Word' define the three "main branches" of GPC's integer types. You won't always be able to deal with the natural size; sometimes something smaller or longer will be needed. Especially when interfacing with libraries written in other languages such as C, you will need equivalents for their integer types.
The following variants of `Integer', `Cardinal' and `Word' are guaranteed to be compatible to the integer types of GNU C. The sizes, however, are not guaranteed. They are just typical values currently used on most platforms, but they may be actually shorter or increase in the future.
(signed) (unsigned) GNU C equivalent typical size (bits) ByteInt ByteCard Byte [un]signed char 8 ShortInt ShortCard ShortWord [unsigned] short int 16 Integer Cardinal Word [unsigned] int 32 MedInt MedCard MedWord [unsinged] long int 32 LongInt LongCard LongWord [unsinged] long long int 64
Since we don't know whether `LongInt' will always remain the "longest" integer type available--maybe GNU C will get `long long long int', one day, which we will support as `LongLongInt'---we have added the synonym `LongestInt' for the longest available singed integer type, and the same holds for `LongestCard' and `LongestWord'.
In some situations you will need an integer type of a well-defined size. For this purpose, GNU Pascal provides tree families of signed and unsinged integer types. The type
Integer ( 42 )
is guaranteed to have a precision of 42 bits. In a realistic context, you will most often give a power of two as the number of bits, and the machine you will need it on will support variables of that size. If this is the case, the specified precision will simultaneously be the amount of storage needed for variables of this type.
In short: If you want to be sure that you have a signed integer with 32 bits width, write `Integer ( 32 )', not just `Integer' which might be bigger. The same works with `Cardinal' and `Word' if you need unsigned integer types of well-known size.
If you care about ISO compliance, only use `Integer' and subranges of `Integer'.
Some of GPC's non-ISO integer types exist in Borland Pascal, too: `Byte', `ShortInt', `Word', and `LongInt'. The sizes of these types, however, are not the same as in Borland Pascal. Even for `Byte' this is not guaranteed (while probable, though).
When designing GNU Pascal, we thought about compatibility to Borland Pascal. Since GNU Pascal is (at least) a 32-bit compiler, `Integer' must have (at least) 32 bits. But what to do with `Word'? Same size as `Integer' (like in BP) or 16 bits (like in BP)? We decided to make `Word' the "natural-sized" unsigned integer type, thus making it (at least) 32 bits wide. Similarly, we decided to give `LongInt' twice the size of `Integer' (like in BP) rather than making it 32 bits wide (like in BP). So `LongInt' has 64 bits, and `ShortInt' has 16 bits on the Intel X86 platforms.
On the other hand, to increase compatibility to Borland Pascal and Delphi, GPC provides the alias name `Comp' for `LongInt' (64 bits on Intel X86) and `SmallInt' for `ShortInt' (16 bits on Intel X86). Note that BP treads `Comp' as a "real" type and allows assignments like `MyCompVar:= 42.0'. Since we don't consider this a feature, GPC does not copy this behaviour.
Here is a summary of all integer types defined in GPC. The sizes and ranges are only typical values, valid on some, but not all platforms. Compatibility to GNU C however is guaranteed (to the extend of the GNU General Public License, of course ;-).
To specify the number of bits, use
See also: section Subrange Types.
GNU Pascal supports Standard Pascal's subrange types:
Type
MonthInt = 1..12;
Capital = 'A'..'Z';
ControlChar = ^A..^Z; (* `^A' = `chr ( 1 )' is an extension *)
To increase performance, variables of such a type are aligned in a way which makes them fastest to access by the CPU. As a result, `1..12' occupies 4 bytes of storage on an Intel X86 compatible processor.
For if you want to save storage at the expense of speed, GPC provides a `packed' variant of these as an extension:
Type
MonthInt = packed 1..12;
A variable of this type occupies the shortest possible (= addressable) space in memory--one byte on an Intel X86 compatible processor.
See also: section packed.

GNU Pascal supports all operators of ISO Pascal and Borland Pascal. In addition, you can define your own operators according to the Pascal-SC (PXSC) syntax.
The following table lists all built-in GNU Pascal operators, ordered by precedence: `:=' has lowest precedence, `not' highest. As usual, the precedence of operators can be superseeded with parentheses.
:= < = > in <> >= <= + - or +< -< +> -> * / div mod and shl shr xor *< /< *> /> pow ** not & @
The Pascal-SC (PXSC) operators `+<', `-<', `+>', `->', `*<', `/<', `*>', and `/>' are not yet implemented into GNU Pascal but may be defined by the user (see below).
GNU Pascal allows the definition of binary operators according to the Pascal-SC (PXSC) syntax. The following "scalar product" example illustrates how to do this:
Type
Vector = record
x, y: Real;
end (* Vector *);
Operator * ( a, b: Vector ) s: Real; (* or: `= s: Real' *)
begin (* Vector * Vector *)
s:= a.x * b.x + a.y * b.y;
^end (* Vector * Vector *);
Var
u, v: Vector;
a: Real;
[...]
a:= u * v;
Between the closing parenthesis of the argument list and the result variable, GPC allows an optional equal sign. This is not allowed in PXSC, but it is consistent with Extended Pascal's function return variable definitions, where the equal sign is obligatory (but optional in GPC).
The argument types needn't be equal, and the name of the operator may be an identifier instead of a known symbol. You cannot define new symbols in GPC.
The PXSC operators `+>', `+<', etc. for exact numerical calculations currently are not implemented in GPC, but you can define them. If you write a module which really implements these operators, please send it to us, so we can include it into the next distribution. Also, the other real-type operators do not meet the requirements of PXSC; a module which fixes that would be a welcome contribution.
(And if you know more about modules in Pascal-SC than just their existence, please contact us either! We could probably easily implement them if we knew how they look like. Something quite close to Pascal-SC modules already is implemented as "GNU specific modules".)
Schemata are types that depend on one or more variables, called "discriminants". They are an ISO-10206 Extended Pascal extension.
Type
RealArray ( n: Integer ) = array [ 1..n ] of Real;
The type `RealArray' in this example is called a Schema with the discriminant `n'. To declare a variable of such a type, write
Var
Foo: RealArray ( 42 );
Schema-typed variables "know" about their discriminants. They can be accessed just like record fields:
writeln ( Foo.n ); (* yields 42 *)
While types of variables must always have specified discriminants (which may be other variables), pointers to schema variables may be without a discriminant:
Type
RealArrayPtr = ^RealArray;
Var
Bar: RealArrayPtr;
When applying `New' to such a pointer, you must specify the intended value of the discriminant as a parameter:
New ( Bar, 137 );
As a GNU Pascal extension, the above can also be written as
Bar:= New ( RealArrayPtr, 137 );
The allocated variable behaves like any other schema variable.
Var
i: Integer;
[...]
for i:= 1 to Bar^.n do
Bar^ [ i ]:= 42;
Since the schema variable "knows" its size, pointers to schemata can be disposed just like other pointers:
Dispose ( Bar );
Schemata are not limited to arrays. They can be of any type that normally requires constant values in its definition, for instance subrange types, or records containing arrays etc. (Sets do not yet work.)
To finish this section, here is a somewhat exotic example.
Type
ColorType = ( red, green, blue );
ColoredInteger ( Color: ColorType ) = Integer;
A `ColoredInteger' behaves just like an ordinary integer, but it has an additional property `Color' which can be accessed like a record field.
Var
Foo: ColoredInteger ( green );
[...]
Foo:= 7;
if Foo.Color = red then
inc ( Foo, 2 )
else
Foo:= Foo div 3;
GPC allows to increment, decrement, compare, and subtract pointers or to use them in `for' loops just like the C language.
Var
A: array [ 1..7 ] of Char;
p, q: ^Char;
i: Integer;
[...]
for p:= @A [ 1 ] to @A [ 7 ] do
p^:= 'x';
p:= @A [ 7 ];
q:= @A [ 3 ];
while p > q do
begin
p^:= 'y';
dec ( p );
end (* while *);
p:= @A [ 7 ];
q:= @A [ 3 ];
i:= q - p; (* yields 4 *)
Incrementing a pointer by one means to increment the address it contains by the size of the variable it is pointing to. For typeless pointers (`Pointer'), the address is incremented by one instead.
Similar things hold when decrementing a pointer.
Subtracting two pointers yields the number of variables pointed to between both pointers, i.e. the difference of the addresses divided by the size of the variables pointed to. The pointers must be of the same type.
In some cases, especially when interfacing with other languages, Pascal's strong typing can be an obstacle. To temporarily circumvent this, GPC (and other Pascal compilers) defines explicit "type casts".
There are two kinds of type casts, value type casts and variable type casts.
Value type casts
To convert a value of one data type into another type, you can use the target type like the name of a function that is called. The value to be converted can be a variable or an expression.
An example:
Var
Ch: Char;
i: Integer;
[...]
i := Integer (Ch);
Another, more complicated, example:
Type
CharPtr = ^Char;
CharArray = array [ 0..99 ] of Char;
CharArrayPtr = ^CharArray;
Var
Foo1, Foo2: CharPtr;
Bar: CharArrayPtr;
[...]
{$X+} { We need extended syntax in order to use "Succ" on a pointer }
Foo1 := CharPtr ( Bar );
Foo2 := CharPtr ( Succ ( Bar ) );
However, because of risks involved with type casts, explained below, you should try to avoid type casts whenever possible -- and it should be possible in most cases. For instance, the first example above could use the built-in function "Ord" instead of the type cast:
i := Ord (Ch);
The assignments in the second example could be written in the following way without any type casts:
Foo1 := @Bar^ [ 0 ]; Foo2 := @Bar^ [ 1 ];
Value type casting only works between certain types: either between different ordinal types (including integer types), or between different real types, or between different pointer types. In each case, the actual value, i.e. the ordinal or numeric value or the address pointed to, respectively, is preserved in the cast.
Note: It is also possible to cast from an integer into a real type. This is a consequence of the fact that integer values are generally automatically converted to real values when needed.
Note: In the case of pointers, a warning is issued if the dereferenced target type requires a bigger alignment than the dereferenced source type (see section Alignment).
Variable type casts
It is also possible to temporarily change the type of a variable, without converting its contents in any way. This is called variable type casting.
The syntax is the same as for value type casting. This can be confusing, as the example below shows.
The type-casted variable is still the same variable (memory location) as the original one, just with a different type. Outside of the type cast, the variable keeps its original type.
There are some important differences between value and variable type casting:
program TypeCastingTraps;
{ Declare a real type and an integer type of the same size, and some
variables of these types we will need. }
Type
RealType = ShortReal;
IntegerType = Integer ( BitSizeOf ( RealType ) );
Var
i, i1, i2, i3, i4, i5: IntegerType;
r, r1, r2, r3, r4: RealType;
begin
{ First part: Casting integer into real types. }
{ Start with some integer value }
i := 42;
{ First attempt to cast. Here, an lvalue is casted, so this must
be a variable type cast. Therefore, the bit pattern of the value
of i is transferred unchanged into r1 which results in a silly
value of r1. }
IntegerType (r1) := i;
{ Second try. Here we cast an expression -- though a trivial one --,
rather than a variable. So this can only be a value type cast.
Therefore, the numeric value is preserved, i.e. r2 = 42.0 . }
r2 := RealType (i+0);
{ Third way. In this last example, a variable is casted, and the
result is used as an expression, not as an lvalue. So this
could be either a value or variable type cast. However, there
is a rule that value type casting is preferred if possible.
So r3 will contain the correct numeric value, too. }
r3 := RealType (i);
{ Of course, you do not need any casts at all here. A simple
assignment will work because of the automatic conversion from
integer to real types. So r4 will also get the correct result. }
r4 := i;
{ Now the more difficult part: Casting real into integer types. }
{ Start with some real value. }
r := 41.9;
{ Like the first attempt above, this one does a variable type cast,
preserving bit patterns, and leaving a silly value in i1. }
RealType (i1) := r;
{ The second try from above does not work, because an expression of
type real is to be casted into an integer which is not allowed. }
{ i2 := IntegerType (r+0); }
{ Third way. This looks just like the third way in the first part
which was a value type cast.
But -- surprise! Since value type casting is not possible from
real into integer, this really does a variable type casting,
and the value of i3 is silly again! This difference in behaviour
shows some of the hidden traps in type casting. }
i3 := IntegerType (r);
{ As often, it is possible to avoid type casts altogether and
convert real types into integers easily by other means, i.e. by
using the built-in functions "Round" or "Trunc", depending
on the mode of rounding one wants. }
i4 := Round (r); { 42 }
i5 := Trunc (r); { 41 }
end.
When dealing with objects (see section Object-orientated Programming), it is often necessary--and safe--to cast a pointer to an object into a pointer to a more specialized (derived) object. In future releases, GPC will provide an operator `as' for a safer approach to this problem.
See also: section absolute, section Alignment, section Endianness, section Object-orientated Programming, section ord, section chr, section round, section trunc.
GNU Pascal follows the object model of Borland Pascal 7.0. The ANSI draft Object Pascal language and the Delphi language (also called "Object Pascal" by Borland) are currently not implemented, but planned for future versions of GPC.
The syntax for an object type declaration is as follows:
Type
fooParentPtr = ^fooParent;
fooPtr = ^foo;
fooParent = object
Destructor Fini; virtual;
Procedure bar ( c: Real ); virtual;
Procedure baz ( b, a, z: Char ); (* not virtual *)
end (* FooParent *)
foo = object ( fooParent )
x, y: Integer;
Constructor Init ( a, b: Integer );
Destructor Fini; virtual;
z: Real;
Procedure bar ( c: Real ); virtual; (* overrides `fooParent.bar' *)
Function baz: Boolean; (* new function *)
end (* foo *);
Remarks:
A pointer to `fooParent' may be assigned the address of a `foo' object. A `fooParent' formal `Var' parameter may get a `foo' object as the actual parameter. In such cases, a call to a `virtual' method calls the child's method, whereas a call to a non-`virtual' method selects the parent's one:
Var
MyFooParent: fooParentPtr;
SomeFoo: foo;
[...]
SomeFoo.Init ( 4, 2 );
MyFooParent:= @SomeFoo;
MyFooParent^.bar ( 3.14 ); (* calls `foo.bar' *)
MyFooParent^.baz ( 'b', 'a', 'z' ); (* calls `fooParent.baz' *)
if SomeFoo.baz then (* calls `foo.baz' *)
writeln ( 'Baz!' );
In a method, an overwritten method of a parent object can be called either prefixing it with the parent type name, or using the keyword `inherited':
Procedure foo.bar ( c: Real );
begin (* foo.bar *)
z:= c;
inherited bar ( z ); (* Or: fooParent.bar ( z ) *)
end (* foo.bar *);
Use `fooParent.bar ( z )' if you want to be sure that this method is called, even if somebody decides not to derive `foo' directly from `fooParent' but to have some intermediate object. If you want to call the method `bar' of the immediate parent--whether it be `fooParent' or whatever--use `inherited bar ( z )'.
To allocate an object on the heap, use `New' in one of the following manners:
Var
MyFoo: fooPtr;
[...]
New ( MyFoo, Init ( 4, 2 ) );
MyFooParent:= New ( fooPtr, Init ( 4, 2 ) );
The second possibility has the advantage that `MyFoo' needn't be a `fooPtr' but can also be a `fooParentPtr', i.e. a pointer to an ancestor of `foo'.
Destructors can and should be called within Dispose:
Dispose ( MyFooParent, Fini );
The standardized GNU compiler back-end makes it relatively easy to share libraries between GNU Pascal and other GNU compilers. On UNIX-like platforms (not on MS-DOS-like platforms), the GNU compiler back-end usually complies to the standards defined for that system, so communication with other compilers should be easy, too.
In this chapter we discuss how to import libraries written in other languages, and how to import libraries written in GNU Pascal from other languages. While the examples will specialize to compatibility to GNU C, generalization is straightforward if you are familiar with the other language in question.
To use a function written in another language, you need to provide an external declaration for it--either in the program, or in the interface part of a Unit, or an Interface Module.
Let's say you want to use the following C library from Pascal:
/* foobar.c */
#include <unistd.h>
int foo = 1;
void bar ( void )
{
sleep ( foo );
} /* bar */
/* foobar.h */
extern int foo;
extern void bar ( void );
Then your program can look like this:
Program TestFoo;
(*$L foobar.c *) (* Or: `foobar.o' if you don't have the source *)
Var
foo: asmname 'foo' Integer;
Procedure Bar; asmname 'bar';
begin
foo:= 42;
Bar; (* Take a break :*)
end.
Or, if you want to provide a `FooBar' Unit:
Unit FooBar;
Interface
Var
foo: asmname 'foo' Integer;
Procedure Bar; asmname 'bar';
Implementation
(* empty *)
end.
You can either link your program manually with `foobar.o' or put a compiler directive `(*$L foobar.o *)' into your program (planned for Units, too), and then GPC cares about the linking. If you have the source of the "FooBar" library (you always have it if it is Free Software), you can even write `(*$L foobar.c *)' in the program (like above). Then GPC will also link with `foobar.o', but in addition GPC will run the C compiler whenever `foobar.c' has changed if `--automake' is given, too.
While it is convenient for most applications, there is no must to give the C function `bar' the name `Bar' in Pascal; you can name it as you like.
For external functions completely written in lowercase there is the shortcut `C' or `C_language' for `asmname 'bar''. For external functions written with one uppercase letter and the others in lowercase, you can use `external' or `extern' instead of `asmname 'Bar''. Since GPC internally converts all identifiers to this notation, `external' is the natural choice when importing other Pascal functions.
Caution: This syntax (`C', `asmname' and such) is subject to change, especially for variables.
It is important that data types of both languages are mapped correctly onto each other. C's `int', for instance, translates to GPC's `Integer', and C's `unsigned long' to `MedCard'. For a complete list of integer types with their C counterparts, see section Integer Types.
In some cases it can be reasonable to translate a C pointer parameter to a Pascal `var' parameter. Since const parameters in GPC can be passed by value or by reference internally, possibly depending on the system, `const foo *' parameters to C functions cannot reliably declared as `const' in Pascal. However, Extended Pascal's `protected var' can be used since this guarantees passing by reference.
Some libraries provide a `main' function and require your program's "main" to be named differently. To achive this with GPC, invoke it with an option `--gpc-main="GPCmain"' (where "GPCmain" is an example how you might want to name the program). You can also write it into your source as a directive `(*$pascal-main="GPCmain" *)'.
The `.o' files produced by GPC are in the same format as those of all other GNU compilers, so there is no problem in writing libraries for other languages in Pascal. To use them, you will need to write kind of interface--a header file in C. However there are some things to take into account, especially if your Pascal Unit exports objects:
Procedure FooBAR; asmname 'FooBAR';
(* Works like a `forward' declaration *)
Procedure FooBAR;
begin (* FooBAR *)
writeln ( 'FooBAR' );
end (* FooBAR *);
This one can be imported from C with `extern void FooBar()'.
Type
SizeInt = Integer ( BitSizeOf ( Pointer ) );
VMT = record
ObjectSize: SizeInt; (* Size of object in bytes. *)
NegObjectSize: SizeInt; (* Its negative. *)
Fun: array [ 1..n ] of Procedure;
(* Pointers to the virtual functions. *)
end (* VMT *);
You can call a virtual method of an object from C if you explicitly declare
this `struct' and explicitly dereference the `Fun' array. The VMT
of an object `FooBAR' is an external (in C sense) variable `vmt_Foobar'
internally.
Below is a pascal source of the declarations in GPC's run time library. A file `gpc.pas' with the same contents is included in the GPC distribution in the same directory as `libgcc.a'. (To find out the correct directory for your installation type `gpc -print-libgcc-file-name' at the command prompt.)
{
Pascal declarations of the GPC RTS that are visible to each program.
This unit contains Pascal declarations of many RTS routines which can
be called from programs. Some other declarations that should not
normally be called from programs, are contained in the unit `Internal'.
Some of these routines correspond to functions built into the compiler,
such as most of the file operations; the declarations here should only
be used if the built-in functions are not applicable for some reason.
Other routines, like many file name and string routines, are not built
in, so the declarations from this unit can be used. Don't copy the
declarations from this unit into your programs, but rather include
this unit with a `uses' statement. The reason is that the internal
declarations, e.g. the `asmnames', may change, and this unit will be
changed accordingly. @@In the future, this unit might be included into
every program automatically, so there will be no need for a `uses'
statement to make the declarations here available.
Note about `protected var' parameters:
Since const parameters in GPC can be passed by value OR by reference
internally, possibly depending on the system, `const foo*' parameters
to C functions *cannot* reliably declared as `const' in Pascal.
However, Extended Pascal's `protected var' can be used since this
guarantees passing by reference.
Note about the `GPC_' prefix:
This is inserted so that some identifiers don't conflict with the
built-in ones. Sometimes, the built-in ones do exactly the same as
the ones declared here, but often enough, they contain some "magic",
so they should be used instead of the plain declarations here.
In general, routines with a `GPC_' prefix should not be called from
programs. They are subject to change or disappering in future GPC
versions.

{ Waits for one of several events to happen. Returns when one or more of the
wanted events for one of the files occur. If they have already occurred
before calling the function, it returns immediately. MicroSeconds can
specify a timeout. If it is 0, the function will return immediately,
whether or not an event has occurred. If it is negative, the function
will wait forever until an event occurs. The Events parameter can be null,
in which case the function only waits for the timeout. If any of the file
pointers (f) in Events are nil or the files pointed to are closed, they
are simply ignored for convenience.
It returns the index of one of the files for which any event has occurred.
If events have occurred for several files, is it undefined which of these
file's index is returned. If no event occurs until the timeout, 0 is
returned. If an error occurs or the target system does not have a select()
system call and Events is not null, a negative value is returned. In the
Occurred field of the elements of Events, events that have occurred are
set. The state of events not wanted is undefined.
The possible events are:
SelectReadOrEOF: the file is at EOF or data can be read now.
SelectRead: data can be read now.
SelectEOF: the file is at EOF.
SelectWrite: data can be written now.
SelectException: an exception occurred on the file.
SelectAlways: if this is set, *all* requested events will be checked for
this file in any case. Otherwise, checks may be skipped if already another
event for this or another file was found.
Notes:
Checking for EOF (just like the EOF function) requires some reading
ahead which can be avoided by setting SelectReadOrEOF instead of
SelectRead and SelectEOF. If this is followed by, e.g., a BlockRead
with 4 parameters, the last parameter will be 0 if and only the file
is at EOF, and otherwise, data will be read directly from the file
without reading ahead and buffering.
SelectAlways should be set for files for which events are considered
to be of higher priority than others. Otherwise, if one is interested
in just any event, not setting SelectAlways may be a little faster. }

Define constants for different systems:
OSDosFlag: flag to indicate whether the target system is Dos
QuotingCharacter: the character used to quote wild cards and other
special characters (#0 if not available)
PathSeparator: the separator of multiple paths, e.g. in the PATH
environment variable
DirSeparator: the separator of the directories within a full file name
DirSeparators: a set of all possible directory and drive name separators
ExtSeparator: the separator of a file name extension
DirRoot: the name of the root directory
DirSelf: the name of a directory in itself
DirParent: the name of the parent directory
NullDeviceName: the full file name of the null device
TTYDeviceName: the full file name of the current TTY
ConsoleDeviceName: the full file name of the system console. On Dos systems,
this is the same as the TTY, but on systems that allow
remote login, this is a different thing and may reach a
completely different user than the one running the
program, so use with care.
EnvVarCharsFirst: the characters accepted at the beginning of the name of
an environment variable without quoting
EnvVarChars: the characters accepted in the name of an environment
variable without quoting
PathEnvVar: the name of the environment variable which (usually)
contains the executable search path
ShellEnvVar: the name of the environment variable which (usually)
contains the path of the shell executable
ShellExecCommand: the option to the (default) shell to execute the
command specified in the following argument
ConfigFileMask: a mask for the option file name as returned by
ConfigFileName
FileNamesCaseSensitive:
flag to indicate whether file names are case sensitive
