This means the application can easilyscale from a Embedded DB (desktop database app) to a full blownClient/Server application.Regards, - Graeme --- fpGUI Toolkit - a cross-platform GUI toolkit using Free Pascalhttp://fpgui.sourceforge.net/------------------------------Message: 5Date: Mon, 16 Feb 2015 10:43:10 -0600From: "Terry A.

All C++ class methods are translated into(mangled) functions in any case, so as long as Lazarus can wrap these asmethods in a class of its own it should work? It should even be possible towrap 2 or 3 C++ classes into one Lazarus class?Cheers and thanks for the insights so far.Chavoux-------------- next part --------------An HTML attachment was scrubbed...URL: --------------------------------_______________________________________________Lazarus mailing ://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarusEnd of Lazarus Digest, Vol 85, Issue 51*************************************** -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
