Create a osFinancials plugin in Lazarus 0.9.20 Beta

How to create a osFinancials plugin in Lazarus 0.9.20 Beta (release of 5-11-2006).

Lazarus can make .exe files that can be placed in plugin folder. From osf 1.0.1.16 + this will be included in the plugins menu.

The exe will recieve parameters like username, password, database and server name. The example includes 1 connection to the database 1 session and 5 Query's to support the operation of listing(select Sql), Inserting(Insert SQL) editing (update SQL) and Deleting. For inserting we need to get a new id from the database. This example just uses a max+1 as the countries table does not have generator. Most of the other tables in osF do have generators.

Please download the example here after installing the latest version of Lazarus.
