Quoting Florian Klaempfl <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Nobody needs compiler building knowledge to push this matter.
I read somewhere (mail-list/Lazarus web site) that there wasn't that problem.
- provide an ftp.freepascal.org mirror (requires approx. 1TB/month
traffic) to reduce the matter of download size
- take care of the installer building and provide patches, it takes me
usually several days before a release till the installer works again
because of changed memory locations etc. so we know that we can make a
more complicated build and install process because somebody takes care of it
Can't help with that right now.
- make a proposal for a dyn. package naming scheme taking different
OSes, file systems, release and snapshot versions into account.
I remember, CodeGear, had the same problem with kylix. Let see if I
could think on something.
combination of rtl, fcl, lcl needs its own set of dyn. packages
DLL hell, yes I got it.
- code in dyn. packages is slower
You have to load the Dynamic Package (DLL/Shared Object) before, use
pointers, and so on...
- even commercial seem not to be able to provide stable debugger support
for dyn. packages
Is there a way, NOT TO DEBUG THEM,as a temporal fix ?
The only valid reason for dyn. packages is that someone don't want to
publish its IDE sources
I think dyn. packages have other benefits as well, but you have made a
point. There are several things that has to been made before can be
implemented.
Cheers.
