I was browsing the Ubuntu software center for compilers and came across Lazarus. It claims to be a cross-platform compiler that will let me develop for windows, OSX, and Linux. I did a little research but I only found information on how the compiler works, not specifically how I can use it. So I have a few questions.
What languages does it support? Can I code in one language and not have to port it to another to use it for another?
Basically I'm wondering if this compiler is as awesome as it describes itself, because being able to use one compiler for everything, though it's lazy of me, is extremely efficient.
Thanks any help is appreciated!
Lazarus is an opensource IDE for FreePascal compiler and replacement of Delphi and it uses FreePascal compiler and FreeComponents Library as its back end.
It is useful for development of portable applications in Object Pascal language.
