Porting a Delphi 7? Excel-read/write component (of XLS-files) to Free Pascal (FPC).
There are three easily fixable compile-time errors (due to FPC's stricter type checking) and? some slightly harder runtime errors due to bit-operations going wrong because the code does not handle compilation to a? 64-bit exe (for Windows x64).
You will be provided with the full sources of the library, a test project, a test XLS file and the complete setup of FPC/Lazarus for x64. Someone with some porting experience 32-->64 bit should be able to get the job done in half a day, including setting up FPC and testing. I anticipate that only half a dozen lines have to be modified.
## Deliverables
Please only apply if you are familiar with the intricacies of porting 32-bit software to 64-bits. Experience with boolean operators on binary data is helpful.
