FPC Cleanroom
From Lazarus wiki
In 2007 it was found that some functions could need a new implementation because they were too similar to the implementation from Delphi. FPC 2.2.2 will be the first release after the cleanroom implementation of those routines.
The core FPC developers already know the old implementation, so impartial contributiors not familiar with the old code or the Delphi code need to be found. The functions alse need to be tested and specifications for them written.
Volunteers to implement the functions
- Vincent
- Almindor
Volunteers to write specs and test apps
- Sekelsenmat
- Jonas
