We’re rewriting a calculation core from scratch in Delphi, and we’re looking for ways to let other people write code against it. Automation seems a fairly safe way to get this done. One use we’re thinking of is making it available to VBA/Office, and also generating a .NET assembly (based on the Automation object, that's easy). But the...

I usually move these layers to a new document with the s...
