I installed Lazarus on my Pi2B (see other therad) and am now using fpc 3.1.1 and Lazarus 1.5. I also installed tightvnc for GUI access via VNC from my Win7 PC.
My first test program on the Pi2B is a GUI application with 2 edit boxes and 2 buttons to test MD5 calculations. One button calculates MD5 of a text in one edit box and displays on the other. The other button calculates the MD5 of the Application.Exename (its own executable file) and displays the executable file name in one edit box and MD5 in the other. Total lines of code in the two events are 7. Amazingly this little program is 24.5 Mbytes as shown: -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 24493881 Oct 3 21:35 project1 So my questions are: 1) Why is Lazarus creating such an enormously big executable file? 2) Why is it placing the project files in /root/tmp? Why not in /home/pi/something_or_other? Is this normal or have I installed Lazarus in some strange way that bypasses the user Pi? -- Bo Berglund Developer in Sweden -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus.freepascal.org http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
