The Free Pascal and Delphi do it too, for example, when you access a database using SQLdb, it uses an external C library (the database client), that is made in C, and many Pascal programmers uses SQLdb with pure Pascal interfaces (headers) without knowing that the main implementation is in the external C library. -- Silvio Clécio
