Hi, I've been working on a chm compiler that uses no external libs so it
works on linux and windows etc. Attached is a test.chm file and I'd like
to know if it works for you. It seems to work on winxp sp1 and older
but winxp sp2 doesn't. it should contain a logo from lazarus and this text:
It
Meanwhile, I'm sorry to say, we are almost halfway May, and we still
haven't seen anything. Looking at the article posted here about the Delphi
roadmap, I would say that Simon Kissel has decided to put his money on
Codegear anyway (I assume he's a businessman, so one cannot blame him
for that).
If I do find something (I need to check my PC at work) then I'll send it
in private.
Thank you, Michael. :)

No, it is not good to be considered. He complains we don't care about
speed or size. I have to correct him: We care, if we can optimize
something we will. As a proof FPC 2.2 will both generate faster code and
generate smaller exes.
I believe FPC people do really care about speed and size
Nicely put. ;) I've found it has good points on some arguments. It's good to
be considered. :)
Yes, but the language used puts off some people.
Yup. Sometimes Lars sounds to aggresive. :-D
As far as I know, Lars is a FPC fan, and he merely wishes to express concern
about

Pixel is a good product. That it is closed source, written in FPC, is a plus:
it shows that FPC is open and suitable for both open source and commercial
development.
I never said Pixel is not a good product, indeed it's a great product. But I
doubt it add significant acknowledgment to FPC as
I've been very busy using Free Pascal and I wanted to show what can be done
with Free Pascal. I know the core development team will not be surprised but
other developers and indecisive C++ programmers who are tuned in might be!
Congratulations, Jason! You're one of my Pascal heroes. I know you
For example:
%d/%d/%d (dd/mm/)
Hello %s(Mr). %s (Van Der Voot),
Thank you for interesting in our %s(product).
%s (Marco) we are more then happy to help you and give you additional
information about %s (product).
You can either call us at the phone number of 1234567890 extension %d

Just a little suggestion... I think we should inform any progress of FPC
development on the website. Maybe this has been informed through the Wiki, but I
believe not every visitor have time to look at the Wiki. Just like what Firebird
project does, they inform every RC on the website.
Just my

After trying out Morfix for some hours, I found very interesting feature of
the implemented object Pascal language. Morfix Pascal allows space char within
the identifier's name. If space char is used, then the name MUST BE enclosed
within a double-quote char pair. Here are some examples:
type
WWWHHH! *Falls off chair*
*grabs desk* *pulls up*
Clear enough ? ;-)
Same respond when the first time I knew that file name is case-sensitive in
un*x-like OSes (Linux, etc). It looks silly and ridicilous (especially for M$
users), but most people still use it (the users like it even
I cannot imagine situations where it would be required or demanded
(maybe desirable, but I don't so). In what cases would it be required or
demanded?
Say I'm gonna make some kind of game maker application, where user can create
game objects. It sure the game objects need name as their
Foo a.bar a := baz b[4].foo q
You made a very excessive example. Of course we don't HAVE TO use space char all
the times. I won't use it that way either. But it's there when we really
want/need it.
is harder to read! It's not the char itself, it's that it's used all over the
place whenever
It doesn't look like joke anymore, so I ask: in what aspect (except
double double quotes) the space sign is different from the underline sign?
In most cases when we write codes by hand, I know this feature is almost
useless. But for automated or generated codes like example I had given in
That is wrong. If the possibility exists, it will be used (at least in
some cases by some people). In many cases this code will have to be
maintained by different people too. There will be guys which can't stand
this kind of identifiers but they are forced to use it. So this
feature renders to a
TurboCASH FPC convertion project will be a good start to prove the power of
FPC/Lazarus. Though it requires highly skilled developers -since it's a big and
complex application-, some FPC experts has to take this chance. I believe lots
of FPC fans will contribute to this project. :)

Thank you, Daniël. As soon as I got an account on SourceForge for my project,
I'll contact FPC site webmaster. :)

It's not the advocacy that is needed but rather they need code for it
to work. It says right in the article.
I think we should stop the VB vs Pascal discussion now. It's useless since we
all here already know which is the winner. Even Alex himself had already knew
about this, no need to

When i try to install zeosdbo_rework from cvs 07-december-2005 on lazarus svn
updated on the same day, i receive an error trying to open the package zdbc.lpk.
I have fpc 2.0.1 and latest lazarus from svn. It works. But, if I change fpc to

Why not both? Delphi is windows-only, so even if FPC became 100% compatible
with D7, the libraries already available for Delphi are usually windows
specific, and FPC libraries are cross-platform.
I believe you know about Kylix, which is Delphi clone on linux. Delphi IDE is
windows only, as
Object pascal is a mature language. Some languages even adopt the concept, such
as C# or Java, with different syntaxes and styles. Do not listen to people who
said pascal is a toy language, they just don't know what they're talking about.
Then, if we are talking about the object pascal
FPC has great amounts of compatibility with Borland Delphi. Unfortunately,
according to the FPC docs, it only supports Delphi compatibility until Delphi
4.
The object pascal enhancement on the next Delphi release is still not supported
by FPC.
Since now Delphi has grown to Delphi 9 (2005)
Name one that really enables you to do something that you couldn't do
otherwise.
Actually... none. :)
If you want portability, simply don't use D2005 syntax.
Hmmm... very nice advice. :)
Write it in D7 and compile it everywhere.
To my knowledge there are no plans for post-D7 support. The
