Are these newly added methods?

[egsuh]

I found TStringList.OwnsObjects, TStrings.TObjectArray(), TStrings.ToStringArray(), etc. now. Are these methods/properties added recently or I just have not known them yet? The documented dates are May 14th 2021.

TStringList.OwnsObjects,

existed for ages

TStrings.TObjectArray(), TStrings.ToStringArray(), etc. now.

these are note released yet https://gitlab.com/freepascal.org/fpc/source/-/issues/36837
..seems like gitlab issues "release version information" is showing nonsense!
but if we trust the dates of "notes" then the methods were added a year ago. (since 3.2.0?)

from the technical perspective the question is irrelevant.
If a method did exist, but you didn't know about its existence, there's nothing wrong with using your own implementation anyway.

Mantis conversion information says that it was added in 3.3.1 and never merged back to 3.2.x.
