FPC works just fine for embedded programming. I haven't tried LCL for such tasks, simply because LCL is to "fat" for my taste. Rather large executables, even for a "hello world" application. Paul Breneman has some excellent information about embedded work with FPC in combination with fpGUI toolkit. A simple 2.5MB download and you have a compiler, fpGUI toolkit, Visual Forms Designer and the experimental Maximus IDE. Due to the usage of fpGUI, executables are nice and small too. I've tested his downloads with a Garmin iQue M5 (WinCE device), and with a Raspberry Pi (ARM Linux). Paul uses different devices. http://www.turbocontrol.com/easyfpgui.htm Regards, - Graeme - -- fpGUI Toolkit - a cross-platform GUI toolkit using Free Pascal http://fpgui.sourceforge.net/ -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list [email protected] http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
