Eldos added support for Free Pascal to SecureBlackBox within the last couple of years. Indy supports it in their main repository. I added FPC support to Abbrevia in late 2011. I know we're not the only commercial software vendor to give up on Delphi for cross platform work, and Free Pascal's Delphi compatibility is the only thing that has made that possible. > If you want to say "delphi compatible", it must be all or nothing. Why? It should be driven by user needs and developer interest, just like it always has. I'd like to see anonymous methods because it would make porting the OmniThreadLibrary possible. The fact that they aren't supported doesn't make the existing generics and class helper support unusable. -- Craig Peterson Scooter Software _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
