ObjectAda 7.0 and Delphi 2.0

[Hannu �rn]

How can I link ObjectAda's .OBJ files to a Delphi program?
Borland uses its own OBJ-format, which is incompatible
with ObjectAda's OBJ file format. Is there any kind
of tool for converting ObjectAda's OBJ files to Borland's format?

Unfortunately, ObjectAda Special Edition will not.

Well, then, I guess the solution seems self-evident.

:-)

Out of curiosity, does Borland offer something equivalent 
to the ObjectAda Special Edition, or did you actually
purchase Delphi?  This is not an intentionally facetious
question - I'm really wondering if Borland offers such
a thing.

This seems just like Robert Dewar's comments regarding supported
customers of ACT getting preferential treatment on GNAT feature
requests.  With no disrespect intended toward the original poster,
if people around here think that Ada is such a great language (and
I do) it is important to ante up for advanced compiler features.
From my perspective Aonix has done a good job of segregating the
feature sets at their various price levels as one can learn a lot
of Ada before DLLs become a requirement.

As far as I know, there are three editions of Delphi 2.0
(Desktop, Developer and Client/Server). Delphi Desktop
is the cheapest one.
