[Lazarus] My Lazarus Help Dialog Application.
Dear Mattias, Thank you for your hard work on getting my Help Dialog (e.g. multitab form) Application to work. Could you please archive the folder containing the Lazarus code for it (as I don't have a completely working copy of it). Also, if there is a space character in any of the filenames or the name of the binary file generated - please remove the space character. I would greatly appreciate your help in this matter. *SMILE* Fond Regards Best Wishes, PEW -- Fond Regards, Peter Eric (aka 'pew') WILLIAMS from Hobart, Tasmania, Australia -- phone (03) 6236-9675 My free website is: http://pewtas.googlepages.com (or) http://tinyurl.com/yuyejs (please visit my free website and let me know what you think about it.) ___ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lazarus.freepascal.org http://www.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus

In my confusion I've actually created BOTH in the same folder and using the same units and forms and resources. THIS IS A NIGHTMARE { But I'm trying to smile about it } Maybe this helps: http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Lazarus_For_Delphi_Users#Projects Can someone please look at my .lpi or .lpr file(s) and help me to compile and run them?!?

Mattias, in the past has been kind enough to receive the files as an attachment... and I would be happy if he would like to do that again. HINT HINT ;-))) The files you sent worked for me.

Hi Mattias, There is something definitately wrong because ever since your change and the need to switch to Mac OS X short-cut scheme, the commands do NOT work. I even did a completely clean svn update, so there can not be any conflicts at all now. Can you try to compile the carbon interface with -dVerboseKeyboard (build clean), then compile the rest of the IDE, start IDE and press Cmd+C in IDE. I did this and no Cmd key combinations work, neither does the Enter or Backspace key, but all other letters and numbers work fine. Where does Lazarus store it's settings on Mac OS X. It can't be in /usr/local/share/lazarus, because I deleted everything before doing the last svn update and my IDE settings still persisted. I think that may be the only way for me to get the IDE working in it's most basic form.

I meant: Start the IDE in the terminal and see the output. Every key press should generate quite a lot when you compiled with -dVerboseKeyboard. Please try svn revision 16015. If you don't get a lot of output, then you started an old IDE or you have not compiled the LCL clean. Where does Lazarus store it's settings on Mac OS X.

[Lazarus] Lazarus under windows vista
I'm trying to install Lazarus 0.9.25 daily snapshot in a notebook that's running Windows Vista Home Premium. The installation ends ok. When I first run Lazarus it says that the path to the FPC compiler is not filled. I fill and click OK and I receive an error asking for OK or cancel(That one that saids that if I answer OK there will be data corruption etc blablabla). I answer OK and give the FPC source path and the make path and click OK. When I open Lazarus again the fields are empty and the error repeats again and forever. Is there a way to do the installation under win Vista? Am I making a mistake in some place?

Re: [Lazarus] Lazarus under windows vista
I examine the uac status of my win vista account and is it's disabled. Mistery! I can't find the reason for Lazrus doesn't update the environment clauses of the IDE as I explained early. Do someone have a suggestion? A new idea? Regards Ricardo Sun, 10 Aug 2008 21:21:48 +0200, Swen Heinig <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>escreveu: uac means user account control. Maybe you should try to switch it off.The problem is, that the uac is asking several times for access rights.If a programm is not prepared for the uac you will not see the requestsand the uac blocks the programm. One of the differences between Vista and XP is, that also an admindoesn't have a full access to the system (several tasks must beconfirmed through the uac). A solution for the installed programm is touse a link on the desktop (see attachment (german language)). If youenable the option you will get only a request after the start. There could also be 2 other reasons for a problem - spaces in the pathname and a broken snapshot. Regards, Swen Arí Ricardo Ody schrieb: I have administrator rights.

[Lazarus] How do I install Linux Kubuntu daily snapshots of Lazarus etc?
G'day All Lazarus people, from 'Down Under', I think that I need to install the Lazarus and FPC 'daily snapshots' -- since I've encountered a bug in Lazarus 0.9.24 which Mattias tells me has been fixed in Lazarus 0.9.25 -- and the only way I think I can get 0.9.25 is by using the daily snapshots of it. http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Lazarus_Snapshots_Downloads I need to say that I'm only a newbie at Linux and even more of a newbie at Kubuntu. I downloaded the .rpm files (3 of them) earlier this morning... however, I don't know the exact command to enter at a 'root terminal'. Please refer to the attachment, which is plain text copy of a 'root terminal' session it shows that I tried to use the 'rpm' command of Kubuntu... but alas, I was fumbling around in the dark 'cos I really didn't know the exact command to do this -- e.g. I'll admit it -- I didn't really know what I was doing! { Hey, until this morning I didn't even know that there was such a thing as a 'rpm' command. } Is it possible to have some kind of 'script' (I think they're called) which would install these files by simply running the script?!? Please tell me the *exact* commands which I would need to enter to install the Lazarus FPC files.
