| Summary | 0037865: Reference Guide: explicit indices in enumeration type definitions requires Delphi-style `=` in Delphi modes | ||||
| Description | When specifying explicit indices for enumeration type members, `:=` is not allowed, but only `=`. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | This fails: {$mode Delphi} type number = (zero := 0); You have to use a plain `=` | ||||

If not mentioned otherwise the documentation is written with regards to modes FPC and ObjFPC. That said it should be mentioned that FPC accepts both := and = in any mode except mode Delphi. |

Huh. I’m having difficulties finding sources for your claim. Can you point out the passage corroborating your statement? I re-read the top sections of the Reference. That’s where I would expect such fundamental issues. It’s already mentioned that both `:=` and `=` are accepted, however the current wording doesn’t point out *only* `=` is valid in the Delphi modes. |
