Description

The Addr function returns the address of a specified object. X is any variable, procedure or function identifier. The result is a pointer to X.

The result of Addr is of the predefined type Pointer, which means that it is assignment-compatible with all pointer types but can't be dereferenced directly without a typecast.

Note: Addr is equivalent to the @ operator except that it is unaffected by the $T compiler directive.
