[fpc-devel] Delphi anonymous methods

[Boian Mitov]

    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).
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 have recently started to remove the {$IFDEF FPC} parts from the source 
code, since the chance to port to FPC seems less and less possible.

With best regards,
Boian Mitov

If you want to drop FPC for because it forces you to move a line and
have to type a name in front of it, then yes, I think you are not on your
place working with pascal.
