And why should we do so? I still don't see what .Net offers what FPC
can't do better without adding another dependency on Microsoft.
Exactly! Not to mention that Microsoft's .NET is not cross-platform.
Yes, Mono is trying to make it cross-platform, but they are forever
going to play the catch-up game! Microsoft will keep dictating .NET
and forever break Mono. And what happens when Avalon (I think that is
what it is called) one day arrives?
Free Pascal solves all these problems. No extra layers, VM's, etc.
Just raw speed and native executables with an excellent cross-platform
compiler.
I think that the advantage of have .NET is,
use library already done like WinForms, Database access, ASP.NET, etc
directly in FreePascal/Lazarus without the need to port/rewrite in FP,
And if someone wants to use that they should agree with the dependences.
This is only a observation, Im not asking to you guys to do that,
ofcource this could be a plus.
