[Lazarus] Modal forms: block parent form or application
Hello, I have two forms Form1 and Form2. Form1 is MainForm with ShowInTaskbar=stDefault and Form2 has ShowInTaskbar=True, so they both have taskbar buttons, I treat them as separate windows. I show a modal form from Form2 which blocks the whole application. Is it possible to have it block only Form2, so I can still activate and work in Form1? -- cobines -- ___ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus.freepascal.org http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus

There are 2 kinds of modality (at least under qt, but can be applied to any X11 app ... don't know for win32 or mac how to do that). 1.Window modal 2.App modal So, with proper implementation it's possible to make 1.Form modal for 1 form eg. parent form 2.Form modal for application (usual behaviour). zeljko -- ___ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus.freepascal.org http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus

Hi,
I updated my Lazarus from /trunk and when I start it... error:

The old lazarus did not support registering units for other packages.
You must use a recent IDE or compile via
make.exe clean all
lazbuild.exe --build-ide
Recent IDE?
For example the daily snapshot.
But I was using /trunk to Lazarus and FPC 2.5.1.
I think the problem was because the new LCL 1.0 package, didn't?
Now, I'm using the Lazarus from fixes_0_9_30, ie, before the new LCL
1.0 package, right? I found no erros.
No problem. You can use that too.
Note: the 0.9.30 IDE can not compile trunk. You have to use make.

Change your modal form to be a regular form with PopupParent = Form2. 2. Disable Form2 when you show your popup form. Of course the logic requires a small reimplementation because you can't use ModalResult and Show is not a blocking method as ShowModal.

[Lazarus] DefaultTranslator, LCLGetLanguageIDs and Portuguese language trouble...
As far as i know, reading Lazarus wiki, these files were standardized as two letters for country (xx.po). It seems that the idea was not to have language variations. Today, we already have some variations implemented, like af_ZA and zn_CN So, what to follow. What´s stated on wiki or implementing language variations ? I see the following possibilities: - Review the 2 letters standard, - Release implementation of language variations (IDETranslations will be updated for every new language variation), - Normalize locale returns in LCLProc to map the correct 2 letters. Currently the code for Linux returns only the first 2 letters of Locale (ex. pt_BR returns pt) - Any portuguese language variations here could be solved only mapping pt to pb. Or we can rename the files from pb.po to pt.po - Other languages have to follow the same rule. So, en_US and en_GB will be simple en, thus mapping to en.po files.

[Lazarus] DefaultTranslator, LCLGetLanguageIDs and Portuguese language trouble...
Please, revert this submit. This will not work. By renaming the files you disrupted the IDE translations. Before taking any actions, we must decide the best thing to do. Renaming the files, as you did, will frustrate our collegues from Portugal, since their locale will not find the correct files and they will end up with the english version. Did you read my previous post ? Option 01: Rename the files to *.pt.po instead of pt_BR.po Change IDETranslations.pas ( Portuguese ) pb - pt Option 02: Make a statement on Lazarus wiki to permit language variations. Brazilizan Portuguese files will be renamed to .pt_BR.po Portugal Portuguese should provide their own translations files (.pt_PT or whatever.) Change IDETranslations to identify Portuguese Brazilian, Portuguese Portugal, . Modify LCLProc (Linux) to return the entire Locale variable, instead of Copy(1,2).. Option 03: Do not touch any files or any code, except LCLProc to return locale which starts with pt to pb. Do not change what is stated on wiki. Do not permit language variations. Mantain the already implemented rule. So Portugal Portuguese will have to use Brazilian Portuguese language files. Please, think on this with care. This is not a matter to rename files only. This is about to change a rule. Will be great if other Lazarus Team take a look on this, before any actions. Regards, MarceloB. Paula 29.01.2011 13:34, Maxim Ganetsky wrote: Yes, it works.

Is that Lazarus code? If so, the string will be utf-8 encoded and you cannot
assume that str[i] corresponds to the i'th character of the string. Even if
it's not Lazarus code, it could still be utf-8 encoded depending on what the
source of the string is and/or the locale settings of the system.
Yes, it is Lazarus code. Okay so I think that we have found the problem. Now
how do I fix it?
If you want to access individual characters, it's probably the easiest to
convert it to a unicodestring first:
var
utxt: unicodestring;
begin
..
utxt:=utf8decode(txt);
{ now perform all operations on utxt instead of on txt }
..
end;
I will use this code (listed above) in preference to the latter code, as
you state the latter code has a higher probability of data loss.
Note:
1) even in UTF-16 (which is the encoding of a unicodestring), a single character may take
up more than one code point, so this is not 100% safe yet either. If you want a guarantee
to string[i] corresponding 1 single character, you
a) have to normalize the unicode string to remove decomposed characters, and
then
b) convert it to an UTF-32 string. You can use this routine for the
unicodestring to UTF-32 conversion:
http://www.freepascal.org/docs-html/rtl/system/unicodestringtoucs4string.html
(note that UCS4String is a dynamic array, not a string type)
I don't know whether Lazarus contains platform-indepdendent wrappers for a).
FPC itself at least doesn't at this time.
2) you will have to make sure that your Rects_low and LastCharacterDefined are
defined in terms of UTF-16. Unless they are all plain ASCII characters (i.e., with an ordinal
value=127), using a simple range is unlikely to work correctly.
This is how Rect_low (=0) and LastCharacterDefined (byte) are declared.
unit uFixedWidthFonts;
{$MODE Delphi}
interface
uses
graphics, ExtCtrls, SysUtils, Dialogs, SDL;
const
Rects_low = 0;
Rects_high = 255;
type
PFixedFont = ^TFixedFont;
TFixedFont = object
private
Image: TBitmap;
// [ALVAROGP] Rects redefined as array of class TSDL_Rect
{
Rects: array[Rects_low..Rects_high] of PSDL_Rect;
}
Rects: array[Rects_low..Rects_high] of TSDL_Rect;
public
LastCharacterDefined: byte;
TransparentColor,
TextColor,
BackgroundColor: Tcolor;
// this is used only when UseTransparentBackground is false
Char_width,
Char_height: byte; // default is 8x8
ReverseVideo: Boolean; // default =false
HorizontalGap: byte;
// Horizontal Gap between characters in Pixels -- default =1
UseTransparentBackground: Boolean;
constructor Initialize;
procedure LoadFont(const Fontfile: string);
procedure FreeUpAll;
destructor Finalize;
procedure WriteText2(x, y: integer; Txt: string;
var PaintBox1: TPaintBox);
end;
var
Font1: PFixedFont;
A simpler alternative, with fairly high chances of data loss, is something like
this:
var
mytxt: ansistring;
begin
mytxt:=utf8decode(txt);
{ now perform all operations on mytxt instead of on txt }
...
end;
This will first decode the UTF-8 encoded string to an UTF-16 encoded unicodestring, and
then convert this unicodestring to a plain ansistring. Data loss can happen in case the
string contains characters that cannot be represented using the ansi (~
default) code page of the system the program is running on. Such non-representable
characters will be replaced by '?'.
I could have used your above code as unknown characters appearing as '?'
characters is acceptable.
In summary, unless you are an expert at working with unicode, you should not
work with such string at the character/code point level, and use higher level
helpers instead to achieve what you want to do. You may want to ask for help
about that on the Lazarus mailing list (subscription information at
http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus), by describing
what exactly it is you want to do rather than showing how you are currently
doing it.
I am not a unicode expert, but I am interested to learn new skills.
Yes, I am a member of the Lazarus list. For some reason I got Lazarus
and Free Pascal confused and perhaps wrongly assumed that this question
was better suited to the FP list.
