I am puzzled again with the new delphi string and the likes
On calling a shader with parameters the actual parameter is never set.


But when is use the variable name directly here:


Then it does works.

But for now i am unable to provide a working type. String / AnsiString / PChar / PAnsiChar but none seem to work

I'm not a Delphi user, but google found this link which looks helpful:

Maybe rawbytestring or utf8string?

Yeah!

Hmm, that only confuses me more ... (if only there was a way delphi2009 could behave like delphi always did on only support fancy string when needed)

Looking at the type of the command i came up with this:
And that works

But i dont like using PGLcharARB in a class it want to use string or ansistring there. But again this does NOT work:
Sigh ....

Yep, the problem is, that the newer delphis use WideString instead of AnsiString when you just say "String". So if you explicitly need an AnsiString, you should tell this to Delphi. Probably even in the method declaration.
