Hello,
I am a long-time reader of Linux Journal. Once, a long time ago,
an offer of mine to write about Free Pascal in Linux Journal was
turned down (actually, shunted to Linux gazette).
I was therefore quite shocked when I discovered that in the latest
issue of Linux Journal, Gambas is covered. Gambas is a Visual Basic
clone for Linux. As a loyal Delphi and Lazarus user/developer,
I was duly insulted by the blatant ignoring of Lazarus :-)
The article covers creation of a small bugtracker (2 tables).
The same application can be coded in Lazarus without a single
line of code (!).
Ok, maybe at most 3 lines: 1 to open the database, 1 to close it,
and one to close the application :-)
If there are other Lazarus users reading Linux Journal, I suggest
they strongly protest and demand a review of Lazarus in Linux Journal!
:-)
Michael.
