Hi, I would like to know if anybody here has already used Kitto2 https://github.com/EtheaDev/kitto2 This project used or was based on the old ExtPascal. My question is because this project compiles only in Delphi and maybe somebody here has already ported to FPC or thought on it. I opened an issue there https://github.com/EtheaDev/kitto2/issues/2 about this.

Kitto2 is a dead end, just as ExtPascal was.

Nevertheless, now that Embarcadero embraced it, I doubt they will consider porting to FPC.

Michael.

They removed ExtPascal from it... but I've never tried Kitto2.

Nevertheless, now that Embarcadero embraced it, I doubt they will consider porting to FPC.

The author have no objections...
But if you say that FPC already has something better (December, right?), I'll choose fcl-web, of course.

(and I do not saying that I will use Kitto2... was just to know)

Best regards,
Marcos Douglas

What I meant is that I believe the architecture is simply wrong.

I believe it is better, yes.

We managed to convince a major component developer of this, so we're not alone in this belief :)

Michael.

Seems like an interesting project.

I once did some rather successful tests with ExtPascal but gave up as ExtPascal seemed to be dead.

Now at -> http://www.ethea.it/eng_news.htm we read: "September 2017: Kitto^2 and Kide^2 released under Open Source license!"

So trying it with fpc/Lazarus seems viable.
