Android Support

[WILL]

You know it might be easiest to support Android by focusing on adding to support to Oxygene for Java instead. To get FPC on board with Android, you'd have to wait for them to add features, while supporting Oxygene for Java, the support is on you to work around what is missing.

...and with those that have taken up the latest PGD Challenge along with the added challenge of making a game using Oxygene, they could help you to test support and offer advice towards what you can and can't do in it.

O'rly? I was needed threads via standard functions instead of pthread*, so I took source code of FreePascal and just done everything I need. All other stuff works like a charm and no need to wait anything else.

Now lazy people also can use FreePascal for Android, because precompiled version of it with installation instructions available here

an awesome job! it took me 2 weeks to get fpc to compile for android, it is a fairly complex task. so this should ease the pain for a lot of people.
