I have just installed today's snapshot for win32 with fp 2.2.3: 2009-01-03 v0.9.27 rUnknown i386-win32-win32/win64
If I create a new project and assign a project icon, version information or select the manifest option (anything that will create a .rc file) compilation fails with: windres: C:\Documents and Settings\Paul Michell\My Documents\Projects\project1.rc:1: syntax error Hint: Start of reading config file C:\Lazarus\fpc\2.2.3\bin\i386-win32\fpc.cfg Hint: End of reading config file C:\Lazarus\fpc\2.2.3\bin\i386-win32\fpc.cfg Free Pascal Compiler version 2.2.3 [2009/01/03] for i386 Copyright (c) 1993-2008 by Florian Klaempfl Target OS: Win32 for i386 Compiling project1.lpr Compiling Unit1.pas Compiling resource C:\Documents and Settings\Paul Michell\My Documents\Projects\project1.rc c:\Lazarus\fpc\2.2.3\bin\i386-win32\windres.exe: C:\Documents and Settings\Paul Michell\My Documents\Projects\project1.rc:1: syntax error project1.lpr(20,1) Error: Error while linking project1.lpr(20,1) Fatal: There were 1 errors compiling module, stopping This used to work with my prior snapshot installation from: 2008-12-09 v0.9.27 rUnknown i386-win32-win32/win64. The issue seems to be the existance of spaces in the project folder name. It will work if the source files are moved to a folder with no spaces in the path. I habitually create projects in a folder within the 'My Documents' folder so I will always have spaces in the project path. I know there is an issue with installing Lazarus itself to a folder with spaces in the path so I let the installer use the default 'C:\Lazarus'. Is this the same issue as: 0011484: Windows: windres does not support using directories with spaces If so I don't understand why it used to work before Christmas?
