[fpc-pascal] Understanding the usage of resources in Linux
Hello all, I want to use resources with FPC 2.6.2. Reading on Lazarus wiki, I knew it's recommended the usage of Lazarus resources (lazres). This is not an option for me. "lazres" expects a lrs file and I can't generate it. I am blind. I can install Lazarus in my Linux, but only to use some units. The graphical interface of Lazarus is completely inaccessible. I searched for a lrs example. I thought I could write it manually. But it's impossible. It's a complex and a very large file. The choices are: 1. A command line program generates the lrs file. Something like: "program file1.tpl file2.wav. After this, I could use lazres. 2. In my Ubuntu 13.10 64 bits, a program compile rc scripts into a res files. For a long time, I tried to do it. I heard resources have a bad behaviour in Linux. Well, my question is: using Ubuntu 13.10 64 bits and only the command line and a text editor like Gedit, is it possible to add files as resources in my executable? -- Regards, Luciano de Souza ___ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
[fpc-pascal] EpikTimer v1.0.1 released
Hi, I've spoken to Tom and he agreed. We moved the EpikTimer repository to Github. The Lazarus-CCR version will be deleted by Tom in due time. I applied some of my changes to code in Github (more changes recently discussed in this mailing list will follow soon), fixed the "etdemo" project to be compilable again, updated the demo to use FPC Resources instead of the old *.lrs files. I've also bumped the version number and created a new release. Hopefully this will resolve the issue about people downloading the 2006 old archive version. I've also updated the Free Pascal Wiki page with the latest information.

How to port Delphi code like Canvas.TextFlags := Canvas.TextFlags or ETO_RTLREADING Canvas.TextFlags := Canvas.TextFlags or LAYOUT_SUPERSCRIPT; TextStyle was the closest thing to TextFlags I could find. If nobody knows the answer, I will continue my experiments. I know this is not a Lazarus list.

Why can't I set members of TextStyle in TCanvas? For example : Canvas.TextStyle.RightToLeft := True; or Canvas.TextStyle.Layout := tlTop; give : Error: Argument can't be assigned to Canvas.TextStyle is a replacement for Delphi's Canvas.TextFlags, isn't it? ___ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal

When reading, I'd suggest following the suggested behaviour in the spec: 1. Try to read UTF8 filename from the EFS; if not present fall back to 2. Try to read extra fields filename as implemented by info-zip/abbrevia etc, if not present fall back to 3. current behaviour (reading filename as is) ___ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
