That's an ancient article. The perceived problem with DLL's had more to do with Visual Basic's runtime and VB .ocx controls that had to be registered than it did with DLL's themselves. If you develop and distribute DLL's with your app, there really is no problem. You can even load them yourself with LoadLibrary.
All OS's and many apps on Windows, Linux and OS X are made up of numerous dynamically loaded libraries. You don't see Linux and OS X developers worrying much about this issue.

There's have been some previous posts about shared objects/dynamic libraries support with FPC/Lazarus IDE. I'm sending a link to an related article, about DLL, just for general information, not to start a "flame war": http://www.extremetech.com/article2/0,1697,1153065,00.asp What do you think ? maramirez _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list [email protected] http://www.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list [email protected] http://www.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
