I tried it once, but ran out of time. Will look at it with IB 4.6.
AS far as I remember it was a little tricky
The Language is the same if not better than the Delphi we know
the FCL is VERY close to the VCL we know.
In fact there was a LOT of effort putted in to make porting easy.
In example simple VCL apps can almost go over without any changes. VEry nice
But I will re-look this next week if you want ? Have to get the work of my back first :)
Have a nice day
