This exists in the system unit of the FPC compiler:

 LineEnding = #10;
 LFNSupport = true;
 DirectorySeparator = '/';
 DriveSeparator = ':';
 PathSeparator = ':';
 FileNameCaseSensitive : Boolean = True;

(The example is for Unix systems)

These constants are defined for all systems, and are filled with appropriate values.

Hi,

is there any constant defined in FCL that would represent platform dependent end of line?

I am think about something like this:

{$IFDEF WIN32}
const CRLF = #13#10;
{$ELSE}
const CRLF = #13;
{$ENDIF}

so that I can write things like this:

lblMultiline.Text:= 'My first line' + CRLF + 'My second line';

... and have it correctly compiled on all platforms. If not, would FCL team consider adding one?

This is not correct. I copied the code from the fixbranch. So it definitely exists in both branches.

In the development compiler the constant LineEnding is defined for this. In the stable 1.0.6 release there is no such define yet.

LineEnding or sLinebreak in the system unit. sLinebreak is the Kylix compatible name.
