bgraformatui.pas(26,12) Warning: Unit "Rtti" is experimental

[backprop]

Using BGRAVirtualScreen, I have noticed this when recompiling:

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]

1. bgraformatui.pas(26,12) Warning: Unit "Rtti" is experimental

Why this "experimental" unit is used here anyway?

Can you fix this anyway?

Hi
That will be /fixed/ when unit 'rtti' is no longer 'experimental'

I would bet that it will never be "finished" and declared "official", rater it will be abandoned.

Anyway, quite weird decision to base development hings on "experimental" code...

It is a delphi compatibility unit, so I doubt that :-)   I think it more hints that if the extended RTTI evolves, the exact definition might change, and break code that relies on earlier layout. I.e. the interfaces are not 100% fixed yet

In main the unit is already no longer declared experimental. For the 3.2.x series it will stay that way.
