Hi Michael,
Thank you!
I actually have more experience in C++ than in Delphi. I have been using
Delphi only for ~15 years, where my active C++ experience dates back to 1990,
and I actively develop in C++ and C# on daily basis as well (All of our
products support C++ and C#).
I have made some attempts in the past to support Lazarus, and offer our
products for it, but due to vast number of bugs and limitations in it, I have
all but given up.
I still hope that one day I may offer our components to the lazars/FPC
community, but that seems to be just a fantasy :-D . I am actually dropping
support for FPC in the latest OpenWire implementation again due to
incompatibilities and lack of Delphi features (in this case attributes).
Attributes have been developed, but are not yet in trunk.
It is ok, I don't use Lazarus (spare a brief attempt few years ago to port
the libraries), and I probably will never use it, especially after your
recommendation :-) , nor will probably most of my customers, and there are
fear number of them ;-) .
I honestly regret this.
But I seriously doubt that this has to do with missing anonymous functions in
a delphi-compatible form.
I also doubt that adding anonymous functions would make you change your mind.
Michael.
