Then it is something wrong with your settings/working copy/process of
IDE building.
* I recompiled the iDE with the -dUseCHMHelp compiler define
Open ide.inc and just uncomment it. This is only supposed to work for
0.9.29. Therefore don't try this is you have lower version.
I am. I'm using v0.9.29 r23241 from 23 December at the moment. I
added '-dUseCHMHelp' in the 'Tools> Configure build lazarus>
Advanced> options) location. That should do the same thing - I always
build the IDE from inside the IDE.
1. Open ide/ide.inc and change the {off $define UseCHMHelp} to {$define
UseCHMHelp}.
2. Open terminal and type: "make bigideclean bigide"
Then try again.
Try with LCL units first.
I just did and it gives the same error message. Pressed F1 will the
cursor was over the Controls unit. Even worse, when the cursor is
over the Menu unit and I press F1, the whole IDE crashes and closes
without giving any error message. No idea why it's trying to open
something in the /tmp directory in the first place. I have setup the
CHM directory location to /opt/fpc_docs/chm/
It works here both for Classes and for Controls and for any other
identifier.
Best regards,
