You can use the FPC database test suite for that (e.g. dbtestframework_gui), see e.g. http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Databases#Running_FPC_database_tests
You can add new unit tests to e.g. testspecifictbufdataset.pas > When you are done, you build all fpc packages that depend on these ppus and > copy > all new files to the install folders (fpc\2.6.2\units\...). > The safest way is too simply rebuild the whole fpc and call make install. > Please read the documentation about building and installing fpc. Additionally, if you want to have your additions to bufdataset incorporated into FPC, please submit a patch against fpc trunk (in other words, please be prepared to copy over your changes to FPC trunk) Looking forward to your updates! -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus.freepascal.org http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
