- Sub: Significant Characters
-
- We just discovered (the hard way) that Object Classes should be unique to their
- first eight characters. While the compiler does not require this in and of
- itself, some features of the debugging environment do. In particular, using
- SetEltType is likely to fail if you try to set up a TList which will contain
- Objects of a Class whose first 8 letters are the same as another class.
-
- Perhaps this is documented somewhere, but a reminder seems in order. This one
- hit us during conversion to MacApp 2.0, as we renamed some Classes, but I
- believe the problem was present in 1.1.1 also.
