Depends on the target. For Win32 it's ok. For Linux and other >Unixes it is wrong. wchar_t is 4 bytes there. You can use the UCS4Char type.

Where is UCS4Char declared? It doesn't apear to be in System, ObjFPC, Linux or SysUtils.

Hmmm, we (the fpc developers) are assuming that everybody uses 1.1 already :) . 1.0.x doesn't have it. You've to
define it yourself as

{$ifdef VER1_0}
   UCS4Char = LongWord;
{$endif VER1_0}

This should be compatible with future version of FPC.

Okay.. I think I have finished all of IDL, but before I send it in I have two more questions.

1.) I have declared WChar_t as WideChar, is this correct/safe? I think it is, but figure I should check first.

2.) There is a function IDL_tree_to_IDL with a File *output parameter, what should this be, Plongint? Pascal FILE type isn't compatible is it?

Just make it a void-pointer
