You can install into that folder without problems. As said the two IDEs
won't conflict with each other (except the file associations, but most
applications have a similar problem ^^).
Thanks for the clarification!
I will go ahead and install fpc, then change the compiler location in
Lazarus and recompile it and go from there. :-)
OOPS!
Forgot to ask:
If I do this in the directory C:\Programs\lazarus:
C:\Programs\lazarus\fpc\2.4.2\bin\i386-win32\make.exe clean all
will this recompile lazarus with the new fpc?
Or do I need to make some changes elsewhere first?
How is the new compiler specified for the rebuild?
When you do this in C:\Programs\lazarus the make utility will look for
fpc in %PATH%. Execute "fpc -i" in a console window and at the top of
the output you'll see the version number of the compiler. If you want to
use a different one you need to specify it to the make utility by
setting the "FPC" variable.
E.g.
C:\Programs\lazarus\>
C:\Programs\lazarus\fpc\2.4.2\bin\i386-win32\make.exe clean all
FPC=Some\Other\Dir\With\fpc.exe
If you have used the installer for 2.4.2 the path
"C:\Programs\lazarus\fpc\2.4.2\bin\i386-win32" should already be in
%PATH% (and thus you could also just use "make" without the path...).
You can also recompile the IDE from within the IDE if you want to.

Sven
