 Hello ,

 Did anyone integrate sound capabilities into a Lazarus application ?
 (in a cross-platform way  :-D  )

 I'm thinking about having the ability to play sounds when certain
 certain actions are
 done by the user or when to play back  work complete after a long
 running task
 finishes.


Thank you guys for the links.  I hope to find time for research in the
weekend , probably .

Re: [lazarus] Rebuilding RTL and FCL inside LazIDE

2008-01-17 Thread Al Boldi
Peter Vreman wrote:
 Mattias, what is needed to add rebuilding RTL/FCL from within the IDE?

 I don't think this is a good idea to add to an IDE. Because
 recompiling the RTL means that you need to recompile all installed units.

 For fpc we are working on a package system that can help in this
 dependency issue. This can maybe included as an tool, but the
 functionalitiy should not be included in the IDE.

Right now when I change something in the RTL/FCL, I need to start a console 
and run make inside the fpc dir.  When I forget to do this, the RTL/FCL 
source will be different from the compiled one.  Why can't the IDE detect 
that, and option the user to rebuild the RTL/FCL?


Thanks!

As I mentioned, I have done the same as you and am very happy with
separate windows. On the other hand it might be good to let the
developer decide what layout they prefer. Delphi and VB6 could switch
between SDI or MDI interface.  I just did a quick look around and
would guess that 90% of all IDE's use a MDI interface (but that could
also be because most of them run under Windows, which loves MDI
interfaces).

Examples of the most popular IDE's using MDI:

  Eclipse (from IBM and others)
  Delphi (from CodeGear)
  Visual Studio (from Microsoft)
  SharpDevelop
  MonoDevelop
  Qt Designer (from Trolltech - I know it's not a IDE)
  VB 5,6 (from Microsoft)
  Magic C++ (windows and Linux ide)
  JBuilder (from CodeGear)
  JCreator
  KDevelop
  NetBeans (from Sun)
  JDeveloper (from Oracle)
  ...etc


Examples of popular IDEs running in SDI:

Eclipse
Delphi
Visual Studio
KDevelop

I don't know the rest that well, but my guess is that you can run them 
in SDI as well. I've actually come to prefer SDI with dragable 
sub-windows, which seems like a good combination of MDI and SDI. I 
really like having everything in one window.

RE: [lazarus] TComboBox blocking selection

More seriously, if you absolutely have to do this, you can intercept the
choice in the combo's OnChange event. This is called whenever the
combo's ItemIndex changes. You can then restore ItemIndex to its
previous value.

 

But you might want to think about this. Will this behavior be
intelligible to your users?

WM_COPYDATA is not a User message I think. WM_COPYDATA is part of an IPC
mechanism, which needs a general implementation in the LCL, with
specifics in win32, gtk, qt etc..


Right, WM_COPYDATA is not a user message - I never assumed that. But 
it's a Message widley used in Windows, so Lazarus has to support it for 
many cases.
I, for example, needed it to talk to some external application 
remote-controlled by WM_COPYDATA - that's why I tracked down the way of 
the message and submitted this patch.


I'm not quite shure if we need it in other interfaces too - it's a 
windows-specific message.

Re: [lazarus] Delphi/Lazarus comparison by Codegear

2008-01-17 Thread Dave Coventry
Well, it was licensing issues that brought me away from Delphi.

I have Delphi 3 Standard and I still code with it, I never upgraded to
4 because it had a bad reputation, when 5 came out they had changed
the license so that you were no longer free to distribute your
applications unless you shelled out for the Enterprise edition which
was out of my price bracket.

Lazarus has allowed me to continue coding in the same way as I am used
to but gives me access to features that weren't in existence in 1998.

The bonus, of course, is that my apps are now Cross-platform :)
