	Object-Oriented Extensions to Pascal
		Within a constructor or destructor, the object referenced by Self is considered to be an object of the type for which the constructor or destructor was defined.
		Because an object being constructed or destroyed is inherently incomplete, features defined by a subclass of the class in which the constructor or destructor is defined are inaccessible within the activation of the constructor or destructor.
		Although constant objects appear in the real world, and there would have been some value in having them, they were rejected because it was decided that their cost did not justify their benefits.

	Object Pascal (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		Object Pascal is an extension to the Pascal language that was developed at Apple in consultation with Niklaus Wirth, the inventor of Pascal.
		Object Pascal allows you to specify the type of a field to be a reference to an object type not yet declared.
		Finally, languages that are object file compatible would use the same object file format, namely that defined in the appendix of the MPW reference manual, and furthermore would support the specific method calling conventions and method table formats that Object Pascal generates.

	Turbo Pascal - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Turbo Pascal was based on the Blue Label Pascal compiler originally produced for the NasSys cassette-based operating system of the Nascom microcomputer in 1981 by Anders Hejlsberg.
		This was first rewritten as the Compass Pascal compiler for the CP/M operating system and then as the Turbo Pascal compiler for DOS and CP/M. A version of Turbo Pascal was available for the Apple Macintosh from about 1986 but was eventually discontinued around 1992.
		Borland licensed the Pascal compiler core, written by Anders Hejlsberg (Poly Data was the name of his company in Denmark), and added the user interface and editor.

	Delphi in a Nutshell: Chapter 2: The Delphi Object Model
		An object reference usually comes in the form of a variable, but it might also be a function or property that returns an object reference.
		Objects are always allocated dynamically, on the heap, so an object reference is really a pointer to the object.
		The object's true class might be the compile-time declared class, or it might be a derived class--it doesn't matter because the VMT provides the pointer to the correct method.

	Object Pascal beats C++
		This article is in response to the ever-prying question, "Why program in Pascal when most everyone programs in C?" It attempts to summarize the many reasons why choosing Object Pascal over C++ is a sound choice.
		It is not intended to represent all the reasons, nor does it pretend to represent every Pascal programmer's viewpoint.
		I found that I could use Object Pascal to create most of the things I missed from C++.

	taoyue.com: Learn Pascal tutorial - History
		Pascal was intended as a teaching language, and was widely adopted as such.
		Pascal remained the official language of the AP exams until 1999, when it was replaced by C++, which was quickly replaced by Java.
		The killer, ironically enough, was object orientation and the move to Windows on the PC platform.

	[No title]
		Pascal is a relatively easy language to learn (and implement), and yet it is powerful enough to tackle most programming tasks.
		Pascal was originally invented by Professor Niklaus Wirth around 1969, with the first version of the language implemented on the CDC 6000 in 1970.
		Delphi's object pascal borrowed some concepts from the technical report, but also introduced many concepts that were not part of that report (and left out many others).

		The class library is written entirely in Object Pascal and designed with an open architecture, separating the underlying database from the user's perspective.
		Some objects may be as simple as one dimensional records in a relational database, but many objects are complex in nature.
		Object Pascal has a very well designed object model, so Spider Object Database's goal is to provide an object-oriented database system which directly supports Object Pascal.

	Object Pascal Style Guide (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		Object Pascal source is divided up primarily into units and Delphi Project files, which both follow the same conventions.
		If the rules of Pascal grammar force you to combine multiple header files into a single unit, then use the name of the base unit into which you are folding the other files.
		Object Pascal doesn't support nesting comments of the same type within each other, so really there is only one level of comment nesting: curly inside of starparen, and starparen inside of curly.

	Object Pascal - Introduction to Variables
		The Pascal (and Object Pascal) language has a list of words reserved for its own use and you must not use any of these words to name your variables.
		Pascal is not case-sensitive; this means that the words CASE, Case, case, and Case are equivalent.
		Besides the write and writeln procedures, Pascal is equipped with two procedures to perform opposite assignments.

		Object-oriented concepts, however, should be learned and used in a top-down approach, starting from modeling objects and object interactions.
		Although some object-oriented languages follow the object metaphor down to the statement level, like Smalltalk, the most widely known languages of today, i.e.
		C++, Object Pascal and Java follow an almost procedural notation.

	Using Objects Safely In Object Pascal (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		For although the syntax of Object Pascal treats objects as though they were statically allocated, the fact is that in Object Pascal, objects arealways allocated as relocatable blocks (handles, in the vernacular) in the application heap.
		Fortunately, Object Pascal programmers have a big advantage over their conventional colleagues: the compiler actually tells you when a field of an object is used in a potentially unsafe way.
		This happens if the memory occupied by the freed object hasn't yet been written over, or even worse, if another object or handle was allocated using the same master pointer as the object that was freed.

	From Pascal to Delphi to Object Pascal-2000
		In Wirth's Pascal and later on in Turbo Pascal/Delphi, the blocks are allowed only in the role of declarations for procedures and functions.
		Objects in Turbo Pascal first were implemented as type object [TP55], which could be used either as a direct type, or as a pointer type, when necessary.
		All the more that the source text in Pascal is essentially structural rather than a linear sequence, thus a "richer" text format may be really beneficial for expressing that internal structure.

		Warren Rachele's Learn Object Pascal with Delphi takes an interesting and unique approach to separating the visual development aspect of Delphi (with which it does not deal) from its underlying language: All of the code examples are built as console applications.
		This extremely clear and accessible presentation of these more advanced Object Pascal topics is one of the highlights of this book.
		Learn Object Pascal with Delphi is a solid and generally complete introduction to Object Pascal.

		Pascal (as referred to on this site) is a computer language used to create applications for computer use.

		Learn Object Pascal with Delphi provides an introduction to the popular programming language that is used as the basis for many computer science programs and a wide range of professional software development projects.
		It is called "Introduction to Object Oriented Programming with Object Pascal." In my opinion there should be more on this subject, but like the book title says, "Object Pascal" should be taken quite literally.
		While this chapter discusses the aspects of OOP, it is only an introduction to the subject of object orientated programming and a more advanced book would be required for a more in depth study of the subject, but what is given is adequate for an introduction.
