Something that I'd like to see, because I use garbage collected languages mostly, is trying to get the Boehm memory manager working as the plugin memory manager.
I've tried to do it and failed because I don't know fpc that well, and although it seems to work on small tests i can't use the unix library without a segfault. I don't think it's worthwhile to argue here the benefits of a garbage collector as it's well documented, but certainly, FPC offering such a feature, would help make certain categories of applications more robust , and imo, have the possibilty of attracting many more developers, particularly java developers, as you get the write once compile everywhere and gc which is really all java ever offered. bd On Sun, 13 Sep 2009 16:46:25 +0200 Graeme Geldenhuys <[email protected]> wrote: > 2009/9/12 Alexander Klenin <[email protected]>: > > So I request community for a suitable ideas -- projects should be > > reasonably self-contained, not too hard, require actual coding and > > > Seeing that we are list our wishlists... :-) > > * Full support for "implements" interface delegation in classes. > > * Complete Semaphore support via a TSemaphore class -- like was done > for TCriticalSection. > > > Regards, > - Graeme - > > > _______________________________________________ > fpGUI - a cross-platform Free Pascal GUI toolkit > http://opensoft.homeip.net/fpgui/ > > -- > _______________________________________________ > Lazarus mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus -- 'Perfection is achieved not when there is nothing more to add, but rather when there is nothing more to take away.' -- Antoine de Saint-Exupéry -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list [email protected] http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
