I've spent some time tearing what little remains of my hair out over this one :-)

I've got 0.9.22 on several machines- Win-32 (NT4), Linux-x86 (Debian  >
Etch) and Linux-SPARC. I'd be nearer the bleeding edge if I had more time and if I wasn't already chasing some elusive SPARC bugs. Underlying compiler is 2.2.0 in all cases.

If I do a complete rebuild from inside the IDE everything works OK on Win-32 and Linux-x86. If on the other hand I do a "make clean" followed by "make all" or "make bigide" from the command line I get an IDE that appears to work and generates good programs but if I try to edit a menu (main or pulldown) item list I get an error dialogue:

    "0" is not a valid component name

Once the system is in that state rebuilding inside the IDE no longer fixes it- it's a start-over job.


I think you should try newer source. The menu editor is an area where fixes have been made since 0.9.22.

Now trying 0.9.25-20071106. I think I'd stepped back to .22 to see if it sorted problems on SPARC.

On Win-32 it appears to recompile from inside the IDE without problems, similarly "make all" and "make bigide" appear to generate an IDE which doesn't have the error I describe above. I've not gone further than that yet so can't say whether there are additional IDE or code generation problems.

Similarly, operation seems to be OK on Linux-x86.

On Linux-SPARC there's a build problem which I've not yet attempted to investigate. Using the same sources as above with an overall system setup which previously built Lazarus without error a "make all" gives me:

I've not started tinkering yet but I can confirm that FPC looks OK, in particular that the ppcsparc symlink is intact.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
