Hello all,

An old project was initially compiled with Turbopascal. Afterwards, it was converted to Delphi. Now, I am trying to compile it using Freepascal. The {$mode delphi} is a very good feature, but it does not solved my problem totally because two units were not found. For this reason, I ask: regarding olectrls e stdvcl were not found, which units have replaced them in Lazarus?
Regards,
Luciano

From what I can see those two units are heavily related to COM/ActiveX/OLE. As COM support is platform dependant to Windows (let's forget about XPCOM here) there was no need to implement such units in Delphi. Also FPC's COM support only improved in FPC 2.6.0 and trunk...

For what do you need these two units? Maybe we can find alternatives?

Regards,
Sven
