[fpc-devel] Wrong reference to bugtracker in svn log

2020-08-28 Thread Bart via fpc-devel
Hi,

Bugtracker issue #35022 was resolved in r44477.
Unfortunately in the bugtracker itself it states the issue is resolved
in r44478.
The log entry for r44477 states that this revision resolves bug #36809
(that however was fixed in r44429).

I stumbled upon this because someone reported a crash in a TRegIniFile
example (which I could not reproduce), but I noticed it wrote to the
wrong key.
So I tried to find the revision that fixed that in trunk and the
associated bugreport, which then sent me on a wild goose chase.

Can somebody fix the "fixed in revision field" for #35022?
Cano somebody fix the svn log entry for r44477, so that it correctly
references issue #35022?

B.t.w. In the bugtracker this fix was targeted for 3.2.0, but
apparently it did not make it there (it seems to be merged to the
fixes branch in the mean time though).

Small tip: _the_ place to put your breakpoint in the compiler to catch
syntax errors, internal errors, and basically any other kind of error
that's not a crash/runtime error is verbose.GenerateError

Boian just today I made a little patch for a bug in the compiler 
(https://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=37650) and I recorded a short 8 min 
video showing the process. I'm admittedly pretty terrible at making videos but 
it may be useful to just see the basics. I'm using VSCode as the 
editor/debugger and I go into how that works with Pascal but obviously you 
could do this with Lazarus (I prefer the debugger in VSCode so I use that when 
I'm doing debugger heavy work).
