GUI in Pascal

[Davide]

I am not a big pascal lover, but i learn it at school and i would like to know:
-how can i make a user interface in pascal?

For example, a window, a label, and a text box. I am using the Free Pascal Compiler and the Free Pascal IDE.

Thank you!

The easiest way would be to use Lazarus. It uses the FPC, but is meant for GUI development.

I tried Lazarus and disliked it for 2 reasons:
1. Install path must not contain spaces (oh, come ON!)
2. It's interface is made of up of many separate windows. I own a laptop, therefor i have a resolution of 1280*800. Imagine how hard it is to use it.

Some native Pascal code would be appreciate it, or a good IDE (no offence Panther, i can't use Lazarus)

I have a laptop with similar resolution.. no issues.

That said, I'm not aware of any other alternatives, short of hooking into the Windows API.

Hi,
I am new to FPC too.

If your target platform is windows,
then you might find a few demos in \FPC\2.2.4\demo\win32 directory,
which show how to create simple window, messagebox, etc.

It was automatically installed
when I installed my fpc2.2.4.
