Curious, where do corba interfaces come in handy ? When can you use them that object oriented code won't offer the same features? I'm wondering if maybe GoLang interfaces are so popular because of similar reasons to the heavily underused and infamous interfaces available in delphi/fpc for years. i.e. what's the basic point of using an interface compared to objects and inheritance and procedures? Where do they really shine? In goLang (don't mean to make this off topic) interfaces are very similar to VarArgs or Variants but not as evil. I mean to keep this on topic by asking specifically what corba interfaces should be used for? Also do they work across DLL's or DSO's sort of like microsoft COM? _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
