TAChart source code will be converted from Delphi syntax to FPC syntax, wich will make it more uniform with the rest of LCL. -- Alexander S.

Hi, I guess the subject says it all.

The latter is correct, you shouldn't. Worse it varies in Delphi too depending on version and optimization level. (2 and 3 skipped) > 4.

[Lazarus] SQLdb tab
I am running Lazarus 0.9.26 under Gentoo Linux 2.6.27 using gtk2 widgets. The Lazarus IDE did not have a SQLdb tab when I first installed it (using a Gentoo ebuild). I looked in /usr/share/lazarus[/components, etc.] and found that the units had not been built; after some experimentation I managed to get the "bigidecomponents" target built. This caused the SQLDBlaz package in the "Installed Packages" dialogue to change from a version of 0.0 to 1.0.1, so I had hoped that installing it from the dialogue and restarting Lazarus would cause the SQLdb tab to appear. It didn't. I noticed that the .o & .ppu files built by the "make bigidecomponents" were not copied or moved to /usr/share/lazarus/units/i386-linux. Since the IDE picked up the version change correctly, I have assumed that it was not necessary to copy them there. So, what have I missed? -- Regards, Dave [RLU #314465] === david.w.n...@ntlworld.com (David W Noon) === ___ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lazarus.freepascal.org http://www.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
[Lazarus] Delphi5 -> Lazarus issues
Just recently I (Lazarus newcomer) converted a 4'500 lines tool for Finite Element mesh manipulations from Delphi 5 to Lazarus. 99.9% went extremely well (a big compliment to all contributers!), but 4 small differences made a little bit of headaches: 1. After finalisation of "For I:=B To E Do..." in Delphi is I=E+1, in Lazarus it is I=E. (I remember, that using a For loop counter after finalisation is not recommended, but...) 2. Starting the program's form with wsNormal and when increasing it later manually, the clipping limits of a TPaintBox.Canvas are not updated. Only forcing a repaint by covering it with another program's form and taking it away again helps. 3. The OnClick event of a ComboBox in Delphi happens only, when an Item is selected, in Lazarus it is already issued after a click for opening the Items list. 4. The stack seems to be limited to approx. 220 kB and to date I did not find the way to increase it ( (*$M, MinStackSize, MaxStackSize*) ?). A procedure trying to initialise approx. 800 kB for arrays caused a SIGSEGV.

[Lazarus] File open dialog doesn't work on an user account in Mac OS X
Hello, folks, I like to program in Pascal for so many years, dating back to th e Pascal/MT+, and greatly appreciate the FPC and Lazarus. Now I have a problem in using Lazarus on an user account in Mac OS X 10.4.11 ( Japanese). If I log-in on the administrator account, Lazarus and applications built by Lazarus work well. But if I use daily user account, Lazarus itself and Lazarus-made applications make an error at opening the file dialog. For e xample on the IDE, clicking the right button at the lazarus directory entry (a t Enviromnent -> Options) arises a floating point exception and IDE goes to di e. I guess it may do something with perivilege system but cannot troubleshoot further. Would you like to tell me any idea to solve the problem ? I tried Lazarus 0.9.26 for Mac OS X PPC, and recent snapshots (lazarus-0.9.26 .1.18700-20090216-powerpc-macosx.dmg and lazarus-0.9.27.18700-20090216-powerpc -macosx.dmg), in vain.
