Summary


In this chapter, we learned how to convert a Delphi project using the Convert Delphi Project Wizard, as well as a brief overview of the manual process of converting. We saw that, when converting, we need to be aware of the differences between Delphi's VCL and the Lazarus LCL. We also need to take into consideration whether the converted project will be cross-compiled for different platforms. We learned that there are some differences between 32-bit and 64-bit types.

In the next chapter, we will learn how to create a component for Lazarus.
