Hello,
as mentioned before, I have been working on a tool based among other things upon [a modified version of] ExtPascal. The source code and documentation is now available here:


The reason I am announcing it here is both because you might be interested in discussing the modifications I have done to ExtPascal to make it work for my case, and because you might be interested in trying out the tool itself.

Enjoy!

Wow, Nando!!

Very interesting project!

Kitto is compilable in Free Pascal 2.4.x and 2.6 ??
It is Linux compatible?

Att,
Wanderlan

Hello Wanderlan,
at my company we only work in Windows and Delphi (2010+), so I can't
say. With appropriate patches, it might.

Without see Kitto's sources I ask:
What did you changed in ExtPascal? These changes could be implemented
in ExtPascal to serve in both projects?
Don't you have problems with memory leaks?

Marcos,

well maybe you should. ;-) That's why they were published after all.

I have sent several posts and opened several issues (some of them with
patches) in the past that deal with that. You can find most things
there. Most changes are probably for general good, but as I said
elsewhere I only use Delphi 2010+ and plus there are parts of
ExtPascal that I didn't get around to, such as the embedded Indy
server (well, I tried but I couldn't make it work reliably). All Kitto
changes can of course be adapted/integrated back into ExtPascal, and I
am available to discuss and explain things as needed.

> Don't you have problems with memory leaks?

I do. Some I have fixed, some I have worked around, some I have fixed
in the generated code only, while a better solution requires changes
to the code generator (which I haven't touched yet, mainly because
it's been under rework by Wanderlan as far as I understand). Finally,
some have yet to be tackled.

Ciao

OK. Well, maybe we can run the code in both compilers.
If you fixed some memory leaks, such codes will be apreciated.

For me, perhaps for others as well, finish with the memory leaks is
the more important at this moment. Maybe you can pinpoint where
problems were.
