Object Pascal Q: object instance as parameter

I can't figure out how to pass an object as a parameter (using Free Pascal 2.02)

for example, in Java is simple:

void addItem(Item itemName)

itemName is a "reference" to a instance if Item class but....

OO Pascal???

Procedure addItem( itemName : TItem);


I've tried using ^Ttype and Ttype here but neither works..

WTF? Help!

I've solved the problem another way, since no one knew.

Old way:

Thing = Object
End;
myThing : ^Thing
new (myThing) // instantiation

New way:

Thing = Class
End;
myThing : Thing

myThing:= Thing.create // another instantiation

now I can pass 'myThing' as a parameter:

Funcition addItem( myThing : Thing);

no errors/problem.
