I'm curious, can Java be used to write a dll?

I don't know why not, because lazarus does since the beginning.

The tail of the discussion was about extending FPC to do the job of the
existing C compilers.
The main thread is - as far as I understand it - about extending the fpc
parser. I think it should be moved to fpc-devel or fpc-other. It is
not about lazarus.
