The whole JEDI sucks, dependencies hell everywhere and IS TIED TO WINDOWS!
Some of the components have been converted though.
Virtual Treeview is available for Lazarus.
Quickreport is not needed because we have LazReport, more over, FastReport
is also Lazarus compatible.
Lazarus can connect to many DBMS, MySQL is one of them.
Yes, he knows about the database situation: his initial query was about how
best to use Delphi with MySQL.
I was aware that at least part of JEDI had been converted (can anybody expand
on this?), but I don't know his exact areas of interest. Also I was aware
that Virtual Treeview had been compatible for quite some time (several
years?) but didn't want to tell him bluntly that his understanding was
outdated.
I believe that he's been using Quickreport for some while, so I suspect that
his compatibility requirements would be quite aggressive. Comments, anyone?
Quickreport: from the days I worked with it, it uses windows metafiles to store
the pages,
I doubt this will ever work in Lazarus.
