[lazarus] postgres revisited
Hi all Earlier I reported a problem finding libpq.dll. I then suspected a problem on my disc and did a complete Windows XP re-install, followed by a postgres 8.3 install and then a Lazarus 0.9.25 re-install. I started by changing fpc.cfg to add the library path of the libpq.dll file to fpc.cfg and that had no effect. The TPQConnection still could not find the file libpq.dll when trying to set the connection to active. Restarting Lazarus also did not improve this situation.(Maybe it needed to reread fpc.cfg?). I finally resorted to copying the libpq file into /windows/sytem32 and tried to connect again. This time round Lazarus asked for ssleay32.dll as well as vsinit.dll. After duly downloading and copying these files into system32. On trying to connect this time I get the message The ordinal 284 could not be located in the link library SSLEAY32.DLL. Even trying with different versions of ssleay32 does not solve the problem. At this point Lazarus shows the connection as Active in the object inspector but seems to be frozen. Switching to another task in the windows taskbar brings Lazarus out of its reverie and gives me the message Can not load the PostgreSQL client. Is it installed?(libpq.dll). Does anybody have any idea how to rectify this problem? Regards.

End Task'ing the lazarus process in Windows is necessary at that point. Is this only linux/gtk? Or is Win32 supported? Hi Lee, It's definitely meant to be a multiplatform suite. You seem to have discovered a win32 specific bug. Since I only use native components that means that it must be something the w32 widget set does different. Logically - only visual components could have issues with widget set implementations. That limits it to TDoubleBuffer. The only part of TDoubleBuffer that is active during design is the paint method - so it seems win32 isn't handling that right. Please try the following for me (I have no access to a windows machine for a while) Fine the lines in doublebuffer.pas that read: if csDesigning in ComponentState then Self.Canvas.CopyRect(rect(0,0,width,height),FBackground.BitMap.Canvas,rect(0,0,width,height)); And comment them out. This will have no impact on running programs, it will just prevent the background from being visible at designtime - but it may solve your problem. Please let me know if it does, so I can update the code on my side (I would use an IFDEF I imagine). Win32 experts: If this works, how SHOULD I do it instead ? Ciao A.J.

(More of an issue than a question) The settings do not seem to get saved when you close the form from code (calling forms .Close method) or if I create the form with another form as owner and then close the owner form. 2. Can someone lend a tip to be able to control the settings at runtime? In other words, I'd like to be able to create multiple profiles and when applied, they load the forms with TXMLPropStorage and force them to use a specific so that the user can have different placement of applicable forms when they want.

More or less all of them try to make your life easy if you don't have enough GB on your HD, so they propose a subset of packages for normal, workstation or whatever, which provides you with a minimal set for with what you need to surf the web, to write your documents, etc. But if you need to make some kind of development (even just install a source package) you end up missing a lot of -devel packages, which have different names for each distro, and you have a hell of a time sorting out what you need. My solution has always been: install everything. If you don't have disk space constraints it's the easiest way out. You lose some disk space, but save a lot of time, and have always at hand what you need. rpm or deb based doesn't make a big difference: with deb you have apt-get as default, but you may install it also in non deb distros, rpm distro's use yum which gives pretty much the same functionalities. Just my 2 cents. Giuliano Thanks Giuliano, I usually check the Developer packets on CentOS installation wizard.

As more and more distro move to freedesktop, maybe the best cross-distro solution is to use the freedesktop standards, e.g. xdg-open: http://portland.freedesktop.org/wiki/XdgUtils (but then you have to provide a fall-back if xdg is not available) kfmclient exec for KDE (kfmclient exec http://kde.org ) gnome-open for Gnome (gnome-open http://gnome.org) exo-open for XFCE _ To unsubscribe: mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe as the Subject archives at http://www.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailarchives

I don't think they made any breakable changes to AMI in 1.4. A business associate introduced me to Asterisk a year or so ago and I'm addicted to it since. This current project is actually a rewrite of one of 3 existing products that I've written for Asterisk (not counting AGI apps, etc) already. http://www.datatrakpos.com/pos/datatalk/Default.aspx (Delphi) http://www.datatrakpos.com/pos/datatalk/asterpas.aspx (Lazarus/Freepascal/Rem PascalScript) http://www.datatrakpos.com/pos/datatalk/maestro.aspx (Delphi - currently being re-written in lazarus) I've also written several little applications including a wrapper around AGI/FastAGI for ObjectPascal, Cepstral Swift AGI Wrapper, etc. Someone else in our office is working on integration between Asterisk and our P.O.S. application for for use with Drive Thru's, Pizza Delivery operations as well. Asterisk is a lot like FreePascal/Lazarus. Once its under your skin, its difficult to dig it out! -- Warm Regards, Lee Everything I needed to learn in life, I learned selling encyclopedias door to door. _ To unsubscribe: mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe as the Subject archives at http://www.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailarchives
