- Sub: TML Pascal, Caveat Emptor
-
- Using TML Pascal II with MacApp is not quite as straightforward as TML's Ad's
- might suggest. As supplied in the box TML Pascal II will NOT successfully
- compile MacApp. A quick phone call (after two nights beating my head against a
- wall..) to TML reveals that there is a MacApp compatibility disc (!!) mentioned
- nowhere in the copious & well presented documentation...
-
- This ensures compatibility with MacApp by... modifying the MacApp Source Code &
- providing new build scripts & stuff to be compatible with TML Pascal...
-
- TML provide this package for MacApp 1.1 only. Don't ask me what you do if
- you're using MacApp 2.0 as TML don't have a similair product for that yet ..
-
- It also turns out that the Project Manager as supplied is a bit on the
- simplistic side, & will confuse Make by suggesting that source units outside of
- the folder the Main Unit lives in are in fact in the same folder as the Main
- unit. Make just gives up in disgust!!
-
- Anyone else been seduced by the Ad's??
- Andy.
-
- I have no idea how MacApp performs with TML Pascal II as the compatibility disc
- has yet to arrive...
