I think FPC in general could benefit from a native FPC script. They have a link to a port of REM objects but the website said it was with flaws and tests were needed under linux.
A light-weight scripting engine would need to be restricted to methods and object code. And perhaps some level of access to the networking engine each script would be called from. IMO, the scripting engine would either be completely thread safe or would have to have multiple instances one per thread. Do you still have your code? I wonder if the FPC memory manager could handle such an engine running over and over again without losing memory. On Fri, Dec 10, 2010 at 1:27 PM, Jorge Aldo G. de F.
