MSEide+MSEgui compiles with Delphi7 with exception of DB components and
therefore the adjacent MSEifi DB components. It should be possible to patch
FPC db.pas in order it can be compiled with Delphi. MSEide uses gdb as
Lazarus does, gdb integration of MSEide is possible a little bit better than
the Lazarus one (widestrings, dynamic arrays...). MSEide and Lazarus both
suffer from gdb problems on win32.
We don't need visual db components. So no problem here.
No, VCL/LCL widgets and MSEgui widgets are incompatible.
OK. That is understandable
Is it easy to install and try the MSE IDE ?
I can't believe it, you never tried MSEide+MSEgui?
In fact I still don't know what it really is.
At home I monitored the newsgroup for a while and once same was
canceled, I thought the thing would be dead. (Like other Delphi related
project I monitored died: Kylix / Cross-Kylix / Cross FPC and I had the
impression that Lazarus would be collecting everyone remaining.)
Installation instructions:
http://www.homepage.bluewin.ch/msegui/
and in README.TXT in the distribution.
For the ifipipe demo you need the SVN trunk version and the compiler
option -dmse_with_ifi.
Should I use Windows or Linux ?
I'll take a look.
