Pascal interface file as alternative to the xprs.h header file

Dear Juan, to be honest, this is the first time I come across a Pascal request. Please understand that the interfaces we provide undergo a rigorous quality assurance, i.e., we cannot provide such a file without substantial time for testing.

It seems from this web source https://techpubs.jurassic.nl/manuals/0530/developer/Pascal_PG/sgi_html/ch04.html#id19402 that there should be more or less a 1-1 to conversion of the Xpress header xprs.h into Pascal possible. I came across the following tool that is part of the free pascal compiler.

Have you tried this? Does it work for you?

Dear Gregor.

Yes, I did indeed see the h2pas utility that you mentioned and while this utility does quite a good job, it needs a little tweaking. However, I am currently stuck as it's complaining about structures that are defined in the library but I can't see them as it's already compiled and causing errors like "Error: (5009) Forward type not resolved "XPRScut"

Thank you very much!

I see. At this point, I would very strongly suggest to take this question to a StackOverflow audience, where somebody might have just the right expertise to help you getting rid of the forward type error, and other pitfalls in translating xprs.h/C into Pascal.

Hi Juan,

can you please drop me a message at danieljunglas(at)fico(dot)com? I have a Pascal unit file that exports Xpress bindings. It is by no means an official part of the product or thoroughly tested, but it might do the job for you.
