I do not believe this is true. The only COM components are those that are wrappers for an ActiveX object. This would be things like TWebBrowser. But this is a very small minority of all the components used to make CPRS. All of the VCL (Visual component library) that comprises the vast majority of Borland's code is written in native pascal. With the professional version of Delphi, you can even trace through the code of these functions. Again, as I have looked at CPRS, the only COM object used is TWebBrowser. And I was able to take that out for the Wine CPRS without any significant change to CPRS. The real problem with converting to Linux with Kylix would be to get the Winsock stuff working for the RPCBroker.
