lazarus is no delphi, and delphi isnt crossplatform. librarys (as the name says) are for sharing functions, the ui is always platform dependend librarys not ...
Yes I know that laz isn't delphi. Yet, we talk about technical possibilities here. If others can do it, if I can do it in c/c++, ... why not in fpc? (I'm kind of rethorical here, not bashing on.)
and i dont know an case where an whole application needs to used by another. and if this fall is the case, why dont use an normal executable ?
I stated a case about using different languages. A DLL in pascal, another application using this dll in any other language. Some languages do not have the hability to do that much and DLLs comes handy, even as UI extensions.
you can "dock" another window to an form ... so you can use any application you want in this way.
Well, this is not completely working in lazarus yet (under win32 you can't dock a form in another without having mouse/focus problems), so it would be much more hard in some other languages. (This was working too in Delphi 3 :) ) I do not have all the required skills to send patches on deep-down lcl issues. I'd like to. :) Best regards. -- Alexandre Leclerc _________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe: mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe" as the Subject archives at http://www.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailarchives
