Recently, the IDE has been having trouble finding various units within the LCL. I tried searching the bug tracker but could not find this issue.
I use fpc 2.6.2, and use Lazarus from svn. I updated this morning to revision 41964. The OS is Suse 12.2 / x86_64. What happens is ... Whenever I try to navigate to an event handler of a control I get an error ... /home/david.copeland/projects/lazarus/lcl/controls.pp(38,36) Error: unit not found: types The controls.pp source file is opened and the unit clause is highlighted. Sometimes it is the gettext in the Forms unit that is not found. Also, I am not sure, but I think this started when I upgraded fpc from 2.6.0 to 2.6.2. For example, and more specifically say I click on a Button in some Form. Then in the Object Inspector I click on the Event tab, then click on the "On Click" line to get the ... to show. It is at this point the "error" occurs. However, the ... are shown and I can click on them to navigate to the handler. I can build my application and it runs. As long as the project remains open the "error" does not reoccur. But if I open another project I get this "error" on the first attempt to navigate to an event handler. When the handler already exists this is an annoyance. But if I try creating a handler for a new control the behavior is different. When I click on the ... in the Object Inspector I get a message dialog with the the message "Unable to find method. Please fix the error shown in the message window, which in normally below the source editor." That error is "Error: Unit not found: Classes". Also the file LCLClasses is opened in the editor. This happens every time I try to create the handler in this way. I can manually add the handler and the application builds normally. However, the manually added handler is not visible in the object inspector, even if I restart the IDE. I hope this is enough info. I can file a bug report if needed. Thanks, Dave Copeland. -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list [email protected] http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
