Platform dependent messages

[sggaunt]

This is related to my Upgrade from 3/4 to 7
In 7 I get several messages like this one

[Warning] update.pas(31): Unit 'ShellCtrls' is specific to a platform.

The help is a bit vauge, are they talking about variantions of Windows, Win9X, XP/2000 or does it mean none windows operating systems Linux, MAC etc.
The example I gave, the Shell List and Tree components mean a large reduction in (my) code for some applications.





Steve: Delphi a feersum engin indeed.
