Extended Record

[SonnyBoyXXl]

The advanced records are a cool feature. Would it be possible to implement a type of inheritance like this way:

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]

1. TMyRecord = record
2.     x: integer;
3.     y: integer;
4. end;
5.  
6. TMyRecord2 = extends record (TMyRecord)
7.     z: integer;
8. end;
9.  

So TMyRecord2 will have 3 elements: x,y, and z

[ASerge]

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]

1.   TMyRecord = object
2.     X: Integer;
3.     Y: Integer;
4.   end;
5.  
6.   TMyRecord2 = object(TMyRecord)
7.     Z: Integer;
8.   end;

Without virtual functions, its size is the same as the records.

No. If you need inheritance then use object.
