This is probably me nitpicking as usual, but in an API, which would you prefer?

A) TIntegerArray = array of Integer;
B) TIntArray = array of Integer;

    TArrayOfInteger .. I've seen that one and I don't think it's that ugly.

    I agree with martion:  TArrayOfInteger is about as clear as you can get.

    Probably TIntegerDynArray, only because it's already there in the Types unit.

    Or TArray or just "array of Integer"

    Hmm, that's a lot of mixed opinions. So far I've been using TIntArray (and T2DIntArray), because I don't think it causes confusion and it's a but shorter to write up.
