12 Facts About IP Pascal

IP Pascal is an implementation of the Pascal programming language using the IP portability platform, a multiple machine, operating system and language implementation system.

IP Pascal implements the language "Pascaline", which is a highly extended superset of ISO 7185 Pascal.

IP Pascal is one of the only Pascal implementations that still exist that has passed the Pascal Validation Suite, a large suite of tests created to verify compliance with ISO 7185 Pascal.

IP Pascal is sold as an implementation of Pascaline, but the language itself can and should be open, and should have quality implementations.

Program from ISO 7185 IP Pascal is directly analogous to a module, and is effectively a module without an exit section.

In IP Pascal, dynamics are considered "containers" for static arrays.

The result is that IP Pascal is perhaps the only Pascal where dynamic arrays are fully compatible with the ISO 7185 static arrays from the original language.

IP Pascal has a series of modules that form a "porting platform".

Object-orientation is a good programming method, but IP Pascal makes it an optional, not a required, methodology to write programs.

At the beginning of 1996, the original target of Windows NT was switched to Windows 95, and IP Pascal became fully operational as an 80386 compiler under Windows.

In 1997, a version of the terminal library from the original 1980 IP Pascal was ported to windows, and a final encoder started for the 80386.

In 2001, a companion program to IP Pascal was created to translate C header files to Pascal header files.
