i would do a DLL with delphi &nbsp;and use inside that DLL INDY for sending and receiving strings via TCP<br />
<br />
<br />
your delphi app &nbsp;&lt;----&gt; DLL &nbsp;[INDY + DELPHI] &nbsp;(your delphi app) &nbsp; &lt;------&gt; &nbsp;DLL &nbsp;[INDY + DELPHI] &nbsp;(the other app) &nbsp; &lt;------&gt; &nbsp;the other app calling the DELPHI DLL functions <br />
<br />
<br />
by this your delphi app and &nbsp;the other app may be placed on diffferent computers , .... &nbsp;

Delphi is the most powerful Object Pascal IDE and component library for cross-platform Native App Development with flexible Cloud services and broad IoT connectivity. It provides powerful VCL controls for Windows 10 and enables FMX development for Windows, Mac and Mobile. Delphi is your choice for ultrafast Enterprise Strong Development™. Look for increased memory for large projects, extended multi-monitor support, improved Object Inspector and much more. Delphi is 5x faster for development and deployment across multiple desktop, mobile, cloud and database platforms including 32-bit and 64-bit Windows 10.

Programming includes both the specifics of the language you’re using, like Visual Basic, .NET, Java and others, but also the best practices in user experience and interfaces and the management of projects, version control and development. Other programming topics are related to web and cloud development and system and hardware programming.

Programming

A programming language is a formal constructed language designed to communicate instructions to a machine, particularly a computer. Thousands of different programming languages have been created, mainly in the computer field, and many more still are being created every year. The description of a programming language is usually split into the two components of syntax (form) and semantics (meaning). Some languages are defined by a specification document (for example, the C programming language is specified by an ISO Standard), while other languages (such as Perl) have a dominant implementation that is treated as a reference. Some languages have both, with the basic language defined by a standard and extensions taken from the dominant implementation being common.
