[Lazarus] Very strange errors when editing programs using Frames
Hi All! I'm not sure if the following is a new bug or whether it only occurs in Lazarus for Windows 1.4RC2 or RC3. I have been testing Lazarus 1.4RC2 and now Lazarus 1.4RC3 on Windows 7 and have encountered strange behavior with frames. I have simplified the code down to an app that displays a very simple frame after a button push. There is only one *unusual* factor in this app (but it is common to many programs I wrote in Delphi and Lazarus for Linux). That is, I subclass TFrame to add functionality to all descendent frames, for example: TFrameX = class(TFrame) public Print; virtual; // Now the main program can call Print on a framex and // the frame-specific printing occurs. constructor Create; override; end; the remainder of the frames in the apps are subclassed from TFrameX. TFrame1 = class(TFrameX) ... The issue is that when editing the MAIN program's appearance using the Object Inspector, (specifically changing *Position*), the .lfm file for the FRAME /occasionally/ gets an entry for*Position*! (sometimes *TabOrder*, too.). I can't pinpoint exactly the time at which this extraneous data appears, but it doing a series of normal editing operations such as moving the windows, changing the properties of the MAIN or FRAME for a few minutes (but not changing the code) will definitely cause it to happen. Once it does, the object inspector for Frame1 has an entry for *Position* (and sometimes *TabOrder*) which is not present when a frame is first created. After this appears, reloading the Frame form will /sometimes/ raise an exception in the IDE complaining about the unknown property for the Frame. The intermittent (apparently) nature of this is puzzling. Subsequently, when I attempt to run the program, one of two possible situations occur: 1.Clicking on the button that displays the frame calls the code but does not display the frame, or, 2.Clicking on the button raises an exception describing the extraneous entry in the .lfm file. I haven't been able to figure out why one or the other happens, but for any given compilation the error remains the same. I have a simple app that demonstrates this problem if anyone would like to try to replicate my troubles ;-) .

Re: [Lazarus] Very strange errors when editing programs using Frames
Don, Welcome to the wonderful world of Lazarus frames! I use them a lot including subclassed frames as you are doing. They are very useful for structuring complex forms as well as common elements, but the IDE will bite you back if you are not careful. I don't think I have seen exactly what you have, but I have seen many strange behaviours. The main advice I would give is to make sure that when you are editing a frame, all forms using that frame are closed. Otherwise, the IDE typically decides that any properties you update in the frame do not apply to the form's instance of the frame and overrides them. The worst case is when you add an event to a component on the original frame. If any forms using that frame are open, that event usually gets set to none on the form and you have to edit the .lfm to restore sanity. Getting used to editing lfm files is one of the delights of using frames as it is the only way of recovering from the IDE overriding property values in using forms - Lazarus unfortunately does not have the Delphi Object Inspector's revert to inherited option. In many cases I have it found it more reliable to add a frame programmatically in the form's loaded method. That way you ensure that the IDE does not helpfully modify properties for you. If you do do that, beware, for some reason loaded can get called more than once for each form. Tony Whyman MWA On 08/04/15 14:58, Donald Ziesig wrote: Hi All!

[Lazarus] 1.4RC3 Install issue
Hi all, I've not had any problems up to date with installing the deb Lazarus RC1 and RC2 files. But today something is different. Installed (in this order) fpc_2.6.4-150228_amd64.deb fpc-src_2.6.4-150228_amd64.deb (this had already been installed for RC2, but I went ahead and reinstalled just in case) lazarus_1.4RC3-0_amd64.deb On startup lazarus complained of path so I selected the appropriate 1.4Rc3 folder and that was fine. But compiler tab complains fpc.cfg is missing. I've looked in /etc and there is an fpc.cfg there dated today. It had initially complained that my compiler (usr/bin/fpc) does not support target x86_64-Linux. The fpc in /usr/bin is dated from 20.04.2014 I then went and chose /usr/lib/fpc/2.6.4/ppcx64, and it made the same complaint, and still have the missing fpc.cfg message. That user lib ppcx64 file is also dated in Apr. 20 2014. Closed the dialog, restarted Lazarus and it went through the exact same complaints. I had been working with Martin Frb in making a debuggable Fpc, but that was weeks ago and I've been using RC2 daily since then from, I believe, the proper folders. No idea why, or what to do. -- ___ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus.freepascal.org http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus

[Lazarus] Is it possible to change LazLogger to use unbuffered output?
Hi All! LazLogger is quite useful in debugging components, but it would be much more useful if the output were unbuffered such that lines written to DebugLn would show in the terminal immediately. Right now, only a portion of the debug output appears unless I append many dummy characters to the debug output to flush the output buffer. Otherwise I can't see all of my output until well after it has been written.

(sometimes *TabOrder*, too.). I can't pinpoint exactly the time at which this extraneous data appears, but it doing a series of normal editing operations such as moving the windows, changing the properties of the MAIN or FRAME for a few minutes (but not changing the code) will definitely cause it to happen. Once it does, the object inspector for Frame1 has an entry for *Position* (and sometimes *TabOrder*) which is not present when a frame is first created. After this appears, reloading the Frame form will /sometimes/ raise an exception in the IDE complaining about the unknown property for the Frame. Do you mean Position or Left, Top? TabOrder is a normal TFrame property. It is set automatically by the LCL for all controls. The intermittent (apparently) nature of this is puzzling. Subsequently, when I attempt to run the program, one of two possible situations occur: 1.Clicking on the button that displays the frame calls the code but does not display the frame, or, 2.Clicking on the button raises an exception describing the extraneous entry in the .lfm file. I haven't been able to figure out why one or the other happens, but for any given compilation the error remains the same. I have a simple app that demonstrates this problem if anyone would like to try to replicate my troubles ;-) . Please create a bug report.

I implemented it only for some basic types and it works only for TComponent properties. So it does not work for Label1.Font.Color, because Font is not a TComponent.

There is property LazLogger.CloseLogFileBetweenWrites : Boolean So in your initialization: LazLogger.CloseLogFileBetweenWrites := True; might help -- ___ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus.freepascal.org http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
