[fpc-pascal] [OT] which editor - emacs?
I'm on a mac and use TextMate currently. As it doesn't jump between declaration and implementation and ist mac-only, I am looking for a replacement. Is Emacs a good choice? Does it work well with FPC? Thanks, Hans-Peter ___ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal

I typically don't compile with the textmode ide though, I do cmdline that in a different window (but because I work on FPC, not on an FPC using app, I more often build the whole thing to see if there are complation errors. Different workflow) When I use the said component also at work, I sometimes also use D2009. I don't use Lazarus for FPC development. This is not a problem of Lazarus, but more that I don't want to often rebuild lazarus when I'm working on FPC. ___ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
Re: [fpc-pascal] [OT] which editor - emacs?
I use Lazarus as my primary IDE (i have to use Delphi in windows sometimes). Lazarus is the only IDE i'm using on Mac OS X. I use it, even if develop non-LCL based applications. The best option Lazarus has to offer is Codetools, not available in other environments thanks, dmitry ___ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal

Why do you need to rebuild lazarus when you are working on fpc? Btw, I use lazarus for fpc development. This is very productive. I run one lazarus with my test project and one lazarus with the compiler.

The best option Lazarus has to offer is Codetools, not available in other environments Hi, I sneak in here with a newbie question: How to debug FPC internal code with Lazarus (or with anything)? I tried it now first time. I opened project compiler/pp.lpi and run it. It actually built the compiler and started it, and started printing its help to stdout, but then Lazarus said: Oops, the debugger entered error state... Last lines on console are: [WARNING] Debugger: Unexpected async-record: *running,thread-id=all [WARNING] TGDBMIDebugger: ExecuteCommand -exec-continue failed.

Re: [fpc-pascal] [OT] which editor - emacs?
Yes, and I am using the devel version of FPC (2.5.1). It works fine for building the whole Lazarus. Juha ___ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal

Just installed Lazarus and it's much better than I expected. Simple things like 'navigating around' are great. Didn't (yet) debug and still call the make script from the terminal though. What I miss, is the TextMate ability to drag a folder containing subfolders with .pas code files into the (libray) project. Cheers, Hans-Peter PS: thanks also to the other suggestions! And if somebody uses Emacs I am still interested to hear about how it goes.

I'm working on the cpstrnew branch using Lazarus. I never need to rebuild Lazarus IDE - I only rebuild the cpstrnew compiler and RTL when needed. -- Regards, - Graeme - ___ fpGUI - a cross-platform Free Pascal GUI toolkit http://opensoft.homeip.net/fpgui/ ___ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal

Same here, but I probably use Lazarus IDE to develop 99.9% of my work - which is all non-LCL related projects. Actually thinking about it, the only LCL project I sometimes work on is implementing minor fixes for the Lazarus IDE itself. :-) -- Regards, - Graeme - ___ fpGUI - a cross-platform Free Pascal GUI toolkit http://opensoft.homeip.net/fpgui/ ___ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal

It has old commands from the TTY days that are different from everything else. How should jump between declaration and implementation work? That sounds like the kind of functionality that requires the program to parse the file contents a lot, which rules out any editor that doesn't have an explicit Pascal mode that is FPC compatible. /Ingemar ___ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal

I use Emacs most of the time to edit my Pascal (and all other :) ) code. But it has it's learning curve. And, although there are various code-completion and code-browser features, not much Pascal-specific support is available (e.g. no Pascal on http://cedet.sourceforge.net/languagesupport.shtml). So you end up using generic code completion (e.g. by dabbrev, or http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/AutoComplete), which is very dumb compared to how Lazarus completes. So if you want code features that need integration with Pascal code (code browser, code completion etc.), go with what everyone says: Lazarus :) Michalis ___ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
