Why would you not do this with a HTML interface ?
This would need to be completely new designed from scratch with "non
visual" methods, while the LCL (aka Delphi VCL) interfacing software is
already in place with the (to be) ported projects. In fact I was not
intending to do the (re-) design of the actual projects, but I only
tried to create an infrastructure to enable the team of programmers who
did the Delphi projects to have them port their code to be "embedded" in
the said way.
The browsers are so powerful these days that your solution is hopelessly
outdated even before you started.
OK. Completely re-implementing the software in Java, Python, PHP or
whatever world be a "modern" way, but dumping millions of lines of code
did not seem attractive.
Right mow they live with doing nothing about the software (i.e. staying
with Delphi) and buying much too expensive Windows enabled hardware for
the "IoT nodes", so that a GUI is supported and can be remoted by
standard tools .
