The synedit control can cope with C++, but not the rest of the IDE (CodeTools etc.)

And what cross-platform compiler would you propose Lazarus use for C++?

We're Lazarus/FreePascal, not Lazarus/SomeKindOfC.

This is RAD Studio, included both Delphi and C++ builder.
This Lazarus only aimed to be an free and open source alternative to Delphi, not C++.

Lazarus is not a language. and fpc is more like P++, eons ahead...

Object Pascal programmers should get rid of their "component fetish" especially with the non-visuals.

Well, if a 3rd party team would start, and get something working, in time it might be merged back. Actually with pas2js Lazarus supports already 2 "compilers".

But from within Lazarus I don't expect such initiatives.

And that means just IDE with an own written designer for C++, or adapt a C++ compiler to generate relevant RTTI.  Borland enhanced their C++ offering too to get it up to the level of Object Pascal. Specially and RTTI, enum sizes etc.

And then still the pascal code needs modifications ({$externalsym xx}, .hpp headers written for them).  All possible, but not an easy project
