Hi Alexsander,
This is perfect timing. I have been evaluating Lazarus for 2 weeks now.
We decided to go ahead and do a rewrite of our quite large Windows
product in Lazarus to enable it to become a cross platform product for
Windows and Linux.
We use the TechInsite tiOPF framework [www.techinsite.com.au]. I did
the initial port to Kylix 3 and started yesterday porting it to Lazarus
and Free Pascal. I will be working on this for the most of December. I
just started and luckily have 1400 unit tests under Delphi to show me
where I broke something. We will be using the Firebird persistence layer
in our product.
One thing I have noticed so far is that FPC is a lot stricter regarding
the Pascal language syntax - which is a good thing! I will post any
(strange) findings, as I come across them.
Regards,
- Graeme -

what I'm doing. Right now I'm porting the Object Persistence Framework
(OPF), and managed to get a working test program already (on Windows
XP). The main changes were:
