Huh? Well, yes... I know there are lots of clocks available :)
What I had in mind, really was to convert a simple Delphi
freeware component to see what needs to be done. Now I should
have at least a vague idea of it so I'll write down what I have done.
After that, the next chapter is a bit more demanding: I will try to
convert a DXF reader/display class to Lazarus. It is a freeware
component and worked well in my commercial Delphi application
I wrote in 1997.
As for the icon I did, again, run into a trouble. I used an icon editor
called "IconXP" that should export XPM. However, when linking the
resource, Lazarus fails to start, stating that the bitmap resource is
invalid.
A look at the XPM file revealed that the icon editor produces:
static const unsigned char * tclock_xpm[] = {
instead of
static char * tclock_xpm[] = {
After fixing that everything was ok. Any idea about a decent xpm
icon editor that would make valid Lazarus XPM?
