SYSTEM Unit

The SYSTEM unit contains runtime types, functions and procedures.

The SYSTEM interface is part of the Pascal compiler itself while the SYSTEM implementation is specified in the file SYSTEM.pas.

All standard procedures and standard functions are implemented in the SYSTEM unit.

The SYSTEM unit also contains the basic types as well as the FILE and TEXT file types.

It also exports the standard constants TRUE, FALSE, and NIL.

Notice that, unlike Borland Object Pascal, Canterbury Pascal has no root classes such as SYSTEM.TObject and SYSTEM.TClass implemented in the SYSTEM unit because of using the Java class hierarchy.
