mORMot: demonic version

It would be nice one day to have mORMot targeting various OS and hardware platforms, into the Windows Delphi IDE.

It seems like a dream! There's a project called CrossFPC "http://www.crossfpc.com" that generates binaries natively:
# 32 Bit Windows
# 64 Bit Windows
# 32 Bit x86 Linux
# 64 Bit x86 Linux
# ARM Kirkwood / SheevaPlug / GuruPlug
# ARM Android

I just tried to do a simple linux app using Delphi7 + mORMot + CrossFPC. Although I am getting some errors while compiling - but I think a great compatibility in source code.

IMHO, mORMot and CrossFPC, for server applications is a good match.

Has anyone been able to do this?

Re: mORMot: demonic version

As for me mORMot currently is not ready for server-side use in non-Windows platform because of dependents of http.sys or, in case plain socket - IOCP. So even if we compile some part under Linux it is only possible to use mORMot as CGI.
I think many time about alternative for IOCP and found good lib https://github.com/joyent/libuv. It currently used in node.js for cross-platform async IO and supported by some M$ contributors. So may be this is a way....
