PureGEM
PureGEM started out as a VCL/LCL style library written in PurePascal. After the system was working, I saw ways to increase the speed while reducing code size, so the design drifted somewhat. Since PurePascal is "Turbo Pascal 7.0 compatible" a number of VCL style features needed to be implemented differently. Namely TNotifyEvent's are replaced with owner recursive methods. RTTI features are implemented via set's. Initially I had planned to use more of the GEM API, but some of the features I wanted required replacing all window elements. This is a new library, so expect code to change. I will be working on this for the next 1-2 years. cheers Derek
