Hi All,

Trying to gauge the potential interest in a Revolution Externals SDK that could allow you to develop externals in Lazarus/Free Pascal. Instead of requiring some form of C/C++ wrapper, which is the only language that is currently supported by the official Externals SDK.

To be able to write externals purely in a Pascal/Delphi dialect would be useful to me, but I do not know for certain if it can be done with Free Pascal -- there may be linking or name mangling issues which prevent it from working.

* So before trying, I am just wondering what level of interest there would be in such a resource?

If it's just me who still uses Pascal, then I probably won't even bother thinking further about it. But if there is interest, who knows...

Note, I have little free time for such a project, so even if there is significant interest, I make no promises about whether it will happen, or when.
