- David,
-
- Pascal+ is very flexible in what it has to offer. I bought it many months
- ago, and I'm very impressed with it. The optimizations are downright
- amazing!
-
- It also provides complete calling control for procedures and functions...
- basically, if you knew your Ada proceure used registers DS,ES,AX,DX
- and it needs passed in via BX a value, you would (or something close):
-
- procedure AdaProc(TEstValue : Word) [USES DS,ES,AX,DX] [BX]; external
- 'AdaProc';
-
- or something close to that (I couldn't remember off the top of my head).
-
- The manuals document everything really well.
