That works, the problem is that someone else (or maybe even me) will
come along and remove the second private as part of cleaning up... I
have put a comment there, but I still dont like it.<br>

type<br>
Taa = class()<br>
private<br>
class var xx : yy;<br>
zz : integer<br>
public<br>

<br>
The xx declaration makes all other variables after it class ones as
well.
I know its documented, but one doesn't realise the impact until after
falling
in the hole. And the hole remains in my code for a future developer to
fall into. This is specially bad after being used to the class
function
declaration which works differently.<br>
<br>
I hate this sort of stuff, the code can not become more robust if a
declaration
of a new variable affects previous declarations.<o:p></o:p></p>
