[fpc-pascal] [OT] Pascal compiler for embedded platforms

[Justin Smyth]

I've tried to use mikropascal and not had any luck , i emailed them my board 
i was going to use with the product and they said they didnt support it.


I've now got a ST Link V2 for the debugging , if someone could give me an 
idea how to set it up  , i would be great full.

Kind Regards


Justin Smyth

For me that is not easy. Most of the time I get it work somehow and shortly
after I did not realize why ... :-)
I have suggestions to make something easier, but I am always facing excuses
why it is good as it is, so I less take part of this type of discussions
which are exhausting for me.

May be mikroe is not providing the sourcecode (I am not sure), but they have
for nearly everything a solution. Ethernet, FAT, SPI, SD-Card, USB, HTTP,
TCP, etc...
There were problems in the past, but because they are (heavily) busy with 
that
stuff they solve most of the important problems. And I think they are 
honest.
