Subject: [fpc-pascal] including libraies ?


I tried to write a little utility to submit a command to the At Facility.

The code to do this is as follows:

program TestPrg;

Uses Classes, Process;

Var
   i:    Integer;
   Cmd, Pre, Post, StrVar, SwStr:    String;
   MyProcess: TProcess;
   SOut, EOut, StdStrLst: TStringList;

Begin
   StdStrLst   := TStringlist.Create;
   SOut   := TStringlist.Create;
EOut := TStringlist.Create; EOut := TStringlist.Create; MyProcess := TProcess.Create(nil); MyProcess.CommandLine := 'at now'; MyProcess.Options := MyProcess.Options + [poUsePipes]; MyProcess.Execute; StdStrLst.Clear; StdStrLst.Add('awk -F":" ''{print $1"\t"$3"\t"$4}'' /etc/passwd | sort'); StdStrLst.SaveToStream(MyProcess.Input); StdStrLst.Clear; StdStrLst.Add(chr(4));
     StdStrLst.SaveToStream(MyProcess.Input);
     SOut.LoadFromStream(MyProcess.Output);
     For i:=1 to SOut.Count Do
         WriteLn(SOut.Strings[i]);
     EOut.LoadFromStream(MyProcess.StdErr);
     For i:=1 to EOut.Count Do
         WriteLn(EOut.Strings[i]);
End.


Running this code from a Lazarus test program works with out any problems. When running it from a Free Pascal (non gui,) the program finishes normally, but nothing gets submitted to the AT Facility. uses Classes, SysUtils, FileUtil, LResources, Forms, Controls, Graphics, Dialogs,
StdCtrls, Process;

Someone on the Lazarus List recommend I add SysUtils to my utility program. I am not sure how to do this. SysUtils has many included files in there and they are all in other directories, none of which are in my path. I am sure there is some simple method here that I am totally ignorant of.


HI Terry, you should be able to just include SysUtils in your uses clause without any issues.

The compiler should be able to find that unit (and others needed) automatically...

{code}
Uses Classes, Process,SysUtils;
{code}

cheers,
Paul
