-// Note on version comparison:
-// -------------------------------------------------------------------
-// Delphi (in contrast to FPC) DOESN'T support MACROS. So we
-// can't define a macro like VERSION_MAJOR(version) to extract
-// parts of the version-number or to create version numbers for
-// comparison purposes as with a MAKE_VERSION(maj, min, rev) macro.
-// So we have to define constants for every part of the version here.
-//
-// In addition FPC (in contrast to delphi) DOESN'T support floating-
-// point numbers in $IF compiler-directives (e.g. {$IF VERSION > 1.23})
-// It also DOESN'T support arithmetic operations so we aren't able to
-// compare versions this way (brackets aren't supported too):
-//   {$IF VERSION > ((VER_MAJ*2)+(VER_MIN*23)+(VER_REL*1))}
-//
-// Hence we have to use fixed numbers in the directives. At least
-// Pascal allows leading 0s so 0005 equals 5 (octals are
-// preceded by & and not by 0 in FPC).
-// We also fix the count of digits for each part of the version number
-// to 3 (aaaiiirrr with aaa=major, iii=minor, rrr=release version)
-//
-// A check for a library with at least a version of 2.5.11 would look
-// like this:
-//   {$IF LIB_VERSION >= 002005011}
-//
-// If you just need to check the major version to this:
-//   {$IF LIB_VERSION_MAJOR >= 23}
-//
-// PLEASE consider this if you use version numbers in $IF compiler-
-// directives. Otherwise you might break portability.
