[fpc-pascal] Implementing Factory Method with Pascal

[luciano de souza]

Yes, it works. But in this case, I don't understand the sense of the pattern.

If I need to do "TAnimalFactory.create(atDog) as Tdog", perhaps, it
would be better not to use a factory, doing simply "TDog.create".

I don't understand if I have implemented the pattern wrongly or if
this pattern, becose of the strong typing of the language, does not
make sense in Pascal.
