Hi,
I am not sure if this is the intended behaviour, and hence my post.
Under Ubuntu 11.04:
Create a new project, set its Target OS (Code Generation) to win32 and
set LCLWidgetType to Win32 in IDE Macro Values. Add unit seri and try
autocomplete. Code Tools will not suggest anything as expected since the
FPC serial unit is unix only. Complete it manually to serial. Hovering
the mouse over 'Serial' will show the hint:
unit
Serial
/home/me/Programs/fpc/fpsrc/exported/2.6.1/rtl/unix/serial.pp(5,6)
Right clicking / Find Declaration will open the serial unit, when it is
not available for Win32. Right click/Open File at Cursor opens it too as
expected. Should Find Declaration open it in the first place?
This feature allows to explore code for non installed target platforms.
Maybe this can be made optional.
The feature is handy indeed. One question arises though: If the unit is
different for several other target platforms, which one would be opened?
I can see the following possibilities:
- Keep it as it is
- Make it an optional setting
- Find Declaration looks for units only in the path while Open File at
Cursor opens the unit even if it is not in the path
- Find Declaration presents a list of targets for which this unit exists
for the user to choose from (if it does not exist for the current target)
