I chose LazSerial (available via Online Package Manager in Lazarus). Now the same problem as outlined earlier in this thread popped up again! In this case I found a few threads in the Lazarus forum where the problem had a solution: https://forum.lazarus.freepascal.org/index.php/topic,7143.msg33501.html https://forum.lazarus.freepascal.org/index.php/topic,21998.msg129236.html In the unit where LazSerial is referenced I added an extra uses item like this: {$IFDEF FPC} interfaces, //Needed for LazSerial to work in a Console program LazSerial, //The serial component {$ELSE} //Delphi When I now build the project the linker does not trigger any complaints about missing Menu related identifiers and the build succeeds! -- Bo Berglund Developer in Sweden -- _______________________________________________ lazarus mailing list lazarus@lists.lazarus-ide.org https://lists.lazarus-ide.org/listinfo/lazarus
