Even though these can come across as nothing to do with Lazarus, they

I am sorry, I didn't think that paragraph would be that unparseable
--can I have a copy of the error log. :)
Is it possible to continue the discussion somewhere else, please?
Personally, I'd think it'd be mistake to do that.
The FPC lists are the correct place to discuss FPC topics. Enough of them
there, user/devel/other choose one.
Thank you for displaying just the the kind of community spirit I like
whereby each and every member thinks the whole belongs to him/her as
his/her personal lawn.
By that token, you --just as anybody else-- can tell me off your
personal lawn; can't you?
Of course, you can. After all, you own this place. ;)
I would, OTOH, very much appreciate if you could spare some time and
contribute towards future direction.
No problem. Keep the compiler/parser as it is (this means fast and working).
Order <> Contribution.
Enhance the parser fpdoc uses => win
Enhace h2pas for better automatic header translation => double win
And, do those all over every time some little thing changes --for ever
and ever.
I see.
How about this as a more sensible approach:
Refactor the FPC code so that its relevant modules are usable in the
above applications (and more).
Further: While doing that, refactor it so that ordinary mortals too
could comprehend it better to off-load some of the immense burdens on
the shoulders of the Core team.
Add to that: In the process, rearrange a few things so that future
expansion --such as multilanguage compilation etc.-- becomes a tangible
possibility.
Such an awful idea, isn't it?
What I find interesting and yet dismaying is this: You choose not to
have any input (like "how about doing XXX also, while you're at it?)
other than "get off my lawn!"..
Cheers,
Adem
