Hello,

I need to send an unknown amount of elements to the Format function (actually objects within a tlist decendant). I apparently cannot create a dynamic array of const, is there another way that I am missing? Currently I am parsing the Fmt param.

Thanks.

Sure you can create one. Array of const is just an array of TVarRec. Just create a dynamical array of TVarRec and pass that.

{$mode objfpc}
program tests;
uses sysutils;
Var
  A : Array of TVarRec;
begin
  SetLength(A,10);
  // Fill A;
  Format('Something',A);
end.
