This is why I really like your bundle. I already have own configuration of
Lazarus 1.4.4 to develop my application on Ubuntu 14.04. I can't try
experimental versions because deb package of the application will be
created with Lazarus and Freepascal available for Ubuntu 14.04 and newer.
If I want newer Lazarus and fpc, I have to create own Ubuntu 14.04
packages. These packages are used as dependency for my personal repository
on Launchpad. You bundle is my easy-to-use way to see what is happening in
trunk right now.


BTW my personal repository with Lazarus 1.4.4 and fpc 2.6.4 is available at
https://launchpad.net/~ok2cqr/+archive/ubuntu/lazarus. I suppose there will
be also packages for fpc 3.0 and newer version of Lazarus as well.

IT WORKS!

I haven't re-installed the component that uses RegExpr in the package 
yet, but what I have is sufficient for this project so far.


Now all I need is to get the IDE/debugger to run as root so I can debug 
the Pi's hardware I/O software.


Will keep you posted.

Many thanks,

Don

Sandro,

If you're using my bundles and you want more packages, just use the
"Packages > Install/Uninstall Packages" menu item, choose any of the
packages you want, then click "Save and rebuild IDE".

If the package you want to install isn't in the "Install/Uninstall
Packages" list, then use the "Packages > Open package file" menu item and
click "Compile". You can do this for multiple packages, then go back to
"Packages > Install/Uninstall Packages" and you'll see those packages are
now available for install. Or, if you just want that one package, you can
click "Use > Install" on the previously mentioned package dialog with the
"Compile" button.

And finally, regarding make useride, if you want to build from the command
line you need to use lazbuild on each of the packages you want to include
before calling "make useride". And yes, if you want to d what I do, which
is to keep the configurations for Lazarus in the same folder as the lazarus
executable, you need to use --pcp with lazbuild.

Petr,

I'm unsure when or if the official Lazarus builds will include anchor
docking and the docked form designer installed and arranged ergonomically.
These are additional packages which users are supposed to know about and
install themselves. There is also the of issue that there is no default
anchor docking layout scheme.

Also, you should know that the bundles I put together are specifically
designer not to interfere with other copies of Lazarus and Free Pascal.
Both programs have been setup to store their configuration information in
their own folders and they will not create issues with or change the
settings of other Free Pascal compilers or Lazarus copies you might have
installed side by side.

HI Anthony,

You recently replied to Sandro:

If you're using my bundles and you want more packages, just use the 
"Packages > Install/Uninstall Packages" menu item, choose any of the 
packages you want, then click "Save and rebuild IDE".


I had not used those steps before so I tried, using the "Packages > 
Install/Uninstall Packages" menu item, selected my existing package and 
click "Save and rebuild IDE".  The Messages box immediately (it doesn't 
look like it tried to do anything) is populated with "Panic *** make No 
rule to make target 'idepkg' Stop"


When I load the package dialog for my component library and click on Use 
> Install it asks if I want to rebuild the Ide.  I click Yes and it 
reports the exact same error.


Just out of curiosity, where (path and name) is the makefile for 
building the ide so I can investigate this problem on my own?


I did try make clean bigide and make bigide and the response was that it 
could not find target 'clean' or target 'bigide'.


Thanks,

Don Ziesig

Mattias,

I am pretty sure the problem is I removed a few files I shouldn't have
while attempting to reduce the total install size for Pi. I'll issue a post
an updated Pi bundle in a few hours (later tonight).

I'll look into it and reissue a new bundle for the Pi. I may have been

If you ever want to uninstall, just use "rm -rf " where

Great!  I had already figured out the rm -rf to remove the new 
installation.


I understand about the SD squeeze.  I ran into that problem at the 
beginning, too.  SD cards are so cheap that I bought a 16 GB card, 
copied the 8 GB noobs SD to it then resized the partitions.  I now have 
over 12 GB free on /home. :-)


Before I tried installing the old components I tried to set up lazarus 
so it would run as root (the PI I am working on will never be connected 
to the net once lazarus is setup, and it needs to be root to debug 
digital IO).  It worked the first time, but after a reboot it kept 
complaining about not finding system.ppu even though system.ppu was 
where it was supposed to be.  It also suggested that I look at fpc.cfg 
(which did not change either).  Just to be sure, I did the rm -rf and 
re-ran setup.sh.  I had 1.4.4 working by calling startlazarus via sudo, 
but that route doesn't seem to be available anymore.  I did audit file 
ownership and protections but they seemed correct.  Any ideas?


Thanks for the excellent work.

Don

You need to change to the lazarus directory before calling make.

I would prefer to build useride with all my favourite packages.

Is it possible to pass:

--primary-config-path= or --pcp=

while calling "make useride"?

Thanx in advance for the answer.

[Lazarus] Get Lazarus January 2016 Update

2016-01-20 Thread Anthony Walter 
I've posted new installer for Free Pascal and Lazarus at getlazarus.org.
Here is an overview of the what's new:

Video:

http://www.getlazarus.org/new/

Changes include:

A new Lazarus layout with the component pallet removed and coolbar buttons
in its place. The a docked form designer is now the default form editor.

The new menu editor is included along with my application explorer tool.
The source to the application explorer is in the components folder and
might be of interest to users wanting to try their hand at extending the
IDE,

The new documentation site at docs.getlazarus.org is now the F1 help site.

Minimal FPC 3.0.0 compilers with friendly setup scripts are now available
at http://www.getlazarus.org/setup/minimal/. I've also updated the "making
it yourself" page with better instructions.

Finally FPC 3.1.1 trunk includes support for generic functions/procedures,
which are quite nice.
