It is gratifying to announce that is has released a set of automatic translation of Delphi applications to PHP, more specifically using VCL4PHP.
As the author of the same suggests, allows for three things:
1) Will automatically convert forms delphi or Lazarus to VCL4PHP, while retaining the same provision.
2) Convert Lazarus in a IDE for PHP.
3) Create extensions for PHP using language as pascal.
If you want to see a simple example of its potential diriganse to this site.
The homepage of the project is here
Namaste.

Migratin from Delphi to Lazarus
Not to me on time, even to this boring, but again I got a challenge on my shoulders is really difficult to meet.
The fact is migrating an application to Delphi Lazarus is easy, by the way, but specifically this beautiful Delphi library im wornking on make a heavy use of Windows API messages...
Reviewing the steps to begin to migrate an application to Delphi Lazarus are very simple.
1) Create a new structure, independent of the one containing the Delphi application, so that you touches does not affect your Delphi application (is basic but very few do it).
2) For each Delphi project file (only for the dpr)
makepasx Proyect1.dpr
3) For each .pas file executes the following command
makepasx unit1.pas
4) For each delphi form execute this command
dfmtolfm unit1.dfm
5) Lazarus uses a resource file for each form, with extension lrs. To generate:
lazres unit1.lrs unit1.lfm lazres unit1.lrs unit1.lfm
Made. We already have everything we need to take the first step in our journey of 1000 miles (the more important).Now just compile and see what happens.
Usually some functions or calls vary somewhat between Delphi and Lazarus. It could put some of them here, but it makes no sense because they are many. Instead I will give you a way to resolve discrepancies in the simplest way, or by various methods that generally make me reach the correct result:
1) If you can not find an identifier or method just look in the sources references in the sources of Lazarus. Sounds silly? Is the simplest way, this way you can know that unit is defined and objects that use it.
2) If the identifier or method does not exist in lazarus, go to the forums Lazarus and looking for. Sure someone before you crash with that stone and found how to setp out ;)
3) If none of that works, the friend google comes to the rescue. You might try Lazarus discrepantname or add the word replacement, and so on.
Finally, as the case may happen in the library that attempt to migrate, that there are too many calls to the Windows API. In this case point 2 and 3 are generally much help.
4) Subscribe to groups Lazarus and fpc. Who better than those who have already been there can help you? Even if a feature is not suported they will help you to implement it and produce the miracle of Lazarus and fpc library get enriched. :)
In other deliveries i will comment about my progress in the conversion and as the problems were resolved.
Namaste.

Repositorios lazarus testing
Thinking about what it is sometimes difficult for beginner Lazarus install a Linux system, I've created some repositories to facilitate their work.
Here instructions.
The version of Lazarus is the 0.9.25 revision 15753 compiled with GTK2 in ide and packages, which works perfectly in our labs (delphi 7 is a steroid): P
The version 2.3.1 is freepascal super testing, just to risky (though not confess has given us a single complaint, on the contrary)
Following the instructions.
Repositories Lazarus and freepascal testing.
There's no guarantee at all! Use it at your own risk.
Installation instructions:
Add the key GPG
gpg --keyserver hkp://pgp.mit.edu:11371 --recv-keys F93F2601
Add the key to APT system:
gpg --export F93F2601 | sudo apt-key add -
Check whether the key was built:
sudo apt-key list
Add the repository to its list of repositories
You can use synaptic or edit / etc / apt / sources.list directly. Add the line:
deb http://www.petrobox.net/lazarus/ lazarus-testing universe
Install Lazarus
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install lazarus
Enjoy!
Namaste.
