issue-#51 support for ANYPTR/SYSTEM.PTR in Meta.LookupPath

Post by Josef Templ »

In BB 1.6 Meta.LookupPath does not support all types available in ComponentPascal.
In particular ANYPTR and SYSTEM.PTR are not supported. Thus, the reflective capabilities
of Meta are not complete. This issue is about closing this gap.
See the issue under http://redmine.blackboxframework.org/issues/51.

A proposal in CPC 1.7 rc5 exists for supporting ANYPTR.
The proposal lacks support for SYSTEM.PTR and is not
as simple as it could be. Therefore it has been simplified and extended
in the topic branch issue-#51.
For the changes see http://redmine.blackboxframework.org/pr ... 87038da7c5.

For the user of BB there is no difference and there are no incompatibilities.
