FreePascal Mishaps

by "Iain Mackay" <no_one@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Nov 8, 2006 at 02:09 PM

Pascal Folks



As an unreconstructed UCSD Pascal programmer from the eighties I thought
I'd 
try my hand with FreePascal/Lazarus (Win XP, lots of memory, normally well

behaved Pentium 4 system).



Several serious mishaps later (two 'source files 'overwritten' by a third 
and finally my entire  work directory disappeared), and I have pretty much

lost confidence with this setup (not to mention a full morning's work 
because the bakup directory doen't seem to have done much in the way of 
backing up).



This together with several debugger crashes maked me suspect tthat FP / 
Lazarus is still very much  'under construction'.



Doe any one in the group have any suggestions for a credible / stable 
alternative? - I was considering either DevPas or even paying for a copy
of 
Delphi.



Any informed comment would be very welcome.



TIA

Iain
