Hi,

just updated my CPU package to rel2rev23. No breathtaking news, just a plain simple update:

- added a new field to the TCPUInfo record which contains the number of logical processors if Hyperthreading enabled (e.g. P4 only).
- bugfixes for Cyrix processor capabilities (hope they're correct now)
- a few new known processor models
- the included platform.inc was completely revised to support much more platforms (well, FPC added a lot of new platforms since the last update). I hope I didn't break too much by doing so. Delphi 7 is supported too now (e.g. cpu unit compiles there as well again =) Ignore the "unsafe code" warnings.

I wanted to add a contributed Lazarus LCL example - but couldn't because I seem to have lost the mail folder containing cpu related stuff... :-( Well, I guess it's not that hard to figure that out...

See included docupd.txt for documentation changes.

Apart from that I think it is slowly time for a cpu rel3 since processor capabilities of different x86 type CPU vendors (most notable AMD <-> Intel) are more and more diverging. Current cpu identification internals were basically designed for Intel compatibility. (rel2 already serves its purpose quite well imo for nearly three years now... =) Well, the timing stuff won't be affected by that.

Regards,
Thomas
