Steep learning curve, Lazarus... Now I have used CVS to check out a Delphi7 project I have already worked on into Ubuntu.
Started Lazarus, which created a new project. Next I tried opening a unit file in Lazarus and then I added the file to the project in the Project Inspector. Next I wanted to do a "syntax check" to find out the errors, but there is no such thing I can find so I used Quick Compile instead. Lazarus claimed it could not find one of the files in my uses clause. Understandable because it is located in directory ../Common (I always use project relative paths in my D7 projects). This directory is really: /home/bosse/Engineering/>ProjectName>/Common I tried to find the equivalent of Project Search path in Lazarus but found only "FPDoc files path" in the project properties so I used that to set the *absolute* path to the directories holding my units. I really wanted relative paths for portability... But Lazarus still does not find the used units! How are you supposed to specify where units used by the project are located if they are not in the project directory? This specification must be project specific and not global. -- Bo Berglund -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list [email protected] http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
