I don't do that, though. Even if technically possible, there are hidden stuffs you have to be aware of. main() is only a specification in C standard, where the user code starts. However, long before that, there's a startup mechanism specific to each implementation. In GCC, this is _start, absolutely non-portable. That's why the IMO better way is to communicate over pipes via TProcess. -- Sent from: http://free-pascal-lazarus.989080.n3.nabble.com/ -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list [email protected] https://lists.lazarus-ide.org/listinfo/lazarus
