    Before I try this myself, has anyone tried to get the sqlitedataset working in Freepascal and Lazarus?  They have a sqlitedataset but it looks to be less capable than this one.

    Thanks,
    Matt

        Hi, I know FPC, as well as Lazarus. I made some steps to test if SQLite4Delphi can be compatible, but... as we all - I'm rather busy.
        Some time ago I found info/question on free-pascal list. But news.gmane.org said that it is read only list. So I had to subscribe mailing list... I have no time to read one more list so I gave up...
        Getting back to the topic. If you can help / have any ideas. Please, please, please ;) Right now most tasks are done, so we have to find out others... We can made params support / blob support / some speed imps / or ... we can make it compatible with fpc. Force your favorite choice, make preasure, give advices, ideas - and everything will be done fast.
        I'm adding task.

      I will play around with it this weekend and see what I come up with.  I am usually just a user of delphi/kylix/lazarus and not a component or lower level programmer so it may be slow.   The gotchas that I can see are the limitations on fpc ie things that are not implemented or just recently implemented and may not be working perfectly such as variants and interfaces.  sqlitedataset use these extensively?  also, it uses a unit called forms.. what is this?

        OK, thanks for your time.
        About forms... It is nothing - almost ;) Older versions of Delphi has Application putted into that module. We can solve it with compiler directive (like for Kylix).

      Cool, was checking that last night.  According to the FPC compiler guys, variants are working for what this would use... now I need to check that out.  I will try to do that this week.
