[Vasudev Ram]

Hi list,

Is there a way to interact with this list via the Web?

By interact, I mean, both read and post messages.

I have seen the main page for the list, where one can subscribe, etc.
and do know that there are archives. But archives are only for
reading, and not in a convenient format like a NNTP  newsreader or
email client.

Is there any way (including third-party, such as Gmane or similar
tools), by which one can both read messages from, and write messages
to, the list, via the Web ?

Thanks,

i already done that. I posted here also because i wanted to share it 
with users who doesn't keep track that list while using the wst framework.



BTW: if the content is indeed UTF8, IIRC, it's not a bug to explicitly
specify charset=UTF-8; a similar fix was needed for exporting XML files

AFAIU, in the SOAP HTTP Binding the character encoding in the 
Content-Type header is optional.

OK, thanks. I've really figured that out - function should return PChar, not 
string.
I'm writing an replacement for closed-source component (also written in 
Pascal), and using disassembler because of that. This component 
intercommunicate with two others, loadable library (on one side) written in 
Pascal and application (on other side) written in C#, both are closed-source.
Anyway, thanks for help!

Ansistrings results are returned in a hidden call-by-reference parameter, so 
the offset should be correct.

Hello, guys!
Firstly, thank you for such a great project! It's very nice to use it in a 
study process in a school/university.
And now a question :)
I have some trouble working on one of my projects, it's code is here:
https://github.com/Barracuda72/PT
The problem is with function "SentenceSample" in "PT4LibIFace.pas"; there are 
two ways - my stupidness or mysterious behavior of FPC compiler.
Code:
-
function SentenceSample(N: integer): string; stdcall;
begin
  //writeln('N = ', N);
  //SentenceSample := RuGetSentence(N);
  inc(N);
end;
-
Of course, inc(N); added just to simplify disassembling. And there is disasm:
-
sentencesample  proc near
  pushebp
  mov ebp, esp
  inc [ebp+0Ch]
  leave
  retn8
-
As you can see, procedure has only one parameter, but FPC generates code as if 
there are two 
parameters; and the main problem is that it trying to work with wrong variable 
(N is in ebp+08, 
not 0C; it's obvious and proved by debugging). The result is bad =)
So, can you say, there am I wrong?
Ah, I'm using Lazarus 1.0.14 with FPC 2.6.2, Win32 build

   Class function doGLobal (Arg : ArgType) : Resulttype;

I presume you know about class methods such as TObject's

class function ClassName : shortstring;

that you can use like this

procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
begin
  ShowMessageFmt('Class name of TEdit is %s', [TEdit.ClassName]);
end;

without needing to instantiate a TEdit instance?

Duplicate identifier in derived generic (was: Re: [fpc-pascal] (no subject))

Why? If I change "FreeObjects" to "aFreeObjects" then it works. Again why?


You simply picked a bad example, because "TFPGObjectList" contains a 
property called "FreeObjects", thus mode ObjFPC will not allow you to 
declare a similar identifier again in this class.


Though it's inconsistent (and in my opinion a bug) that the duplicated 
declaration inside "TFPGObjectList" itself is not detected...


Note: if the property in "TFPGObjectList" would be moved before the 
constructor it should be detected as duplicate.



Is it even ok to derive classes from specialized classes like that?


Of course it is. In Delphi (and my generics branch) even the following 
is allowed:


{$mode delphi}

type
  TSomeDerivedList = class(TFPGObjectList)
// ...

I try to learn to use generics properly.
First, this is a class definition without generics:

  TMyDerived = class(TObjectList)
  private
MyInt: integer;
  public
constructor Create(FreeObjects: Boolean=True);
  end;

It works. Now I try to derive a class with generics:

  TMyGen = specialize TFPGObjectList;

  TMyDerived = class(TMyGen)
  private
MyInt: integer;
  public
constructor Create(FreeObjects: Boolean=True);
  end;

It says:
 unit1.pas(40,24) Error: Duplicate identifier "FreeObjects"

Why? If I change "FreeObjects" to "aFreeObjects" then it works. Again why?

These are obviously all valid. There's also another possibility though
(having advantages and disadvantages compared to this) - you could have an
include file specifying this define and reference this include file from
all (relevant) source files. The advantage is that this works
independently from the chosen compilation method (fpc from command line,
makefile, all IDEs, etc.). The disadvantage is obviously that if you need
to make sure that you don't forget the include file reference in any of
your (relevant) files.

The ProcessMessages is there (I guess) for allowing the Application

I have the following part of a unit code which can be compiled successfully

  {$IFNDEF NOFORMSPLEASE}
  if soProcessMessages in oSearchOptions then
Application.ProcessMessages;
  {$ENDIF}

My question is, how can I use this unit from my console application? I know

this is a unit for searching folders/files, I want to use it too in my console 
application.

Any help appreciated. Thanks.

http://svn.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/trunk/rtl/objpas/dateutil.inc?view=diff&r1=12957&r2=12958
shows that a change was recently made which replaces "Trunc" with
"Round" in the *Between routines in dateutil.inc (DaysBetween,
HoursBetween, etc.).

So this program:
-

program Project1;

{$mode objfpc}{$H+}

uses
  Classes,SysUtils,DateUtils;

var
  val1, val2 : TDateTime;
begin
  val1 := 39939.0;
  val2 := 39939.796069305557;
  writeln(DaysBetween(val1, val2));
end.
-

Will now print result in a "1" instead of a "0" which is what I would
have gotten before.

Now I know I can just use trunc(DaySpan(val1, val2)) to achieve the
same result, but I was just curious as to why this change was made
which so drastically changes the functionality of these calls.

Thanks,

-SG

There is unfortunately an error in the default IDE configuration

 Well of course i read that, but there is no ports unit in x64 Linux.

uses
  Classes, SysUtils, LResources, Forms, Controls, Graphics, Dialogs, ExtCtrls,
 {$IFDEF WIN32}
   Windows;
 {$ENDIF}
 {$IFDEF Unix}
   ports;
 {$ENDIF}

You see the given examples are using ports unit in *nix.

I'd say - go for Lazarus!
www.lazarus.freepascal.org
It's a great IDE, and it actually gets the job done.
I am using it for a while now.

At least for me it doesn't on XP and I never heard that it does on XP.
9x/ME is another story, the console implementation of 9x/ME is poor. I
think the best option for 9x/ME users is 1.0.10/go32v2.

I think there are some problems with links in on-line fpc documentation. For
example look at

and link to "Programmers guide" at the bottom of the page or

I'd add to this - what's your (the original poster) definition of “weak
hardware”, and what is the program intended to do (at least roughly -
what kind of tasks)? This might help to find the best alternative solution
if necessary.

This question has been asked before. See the community site:
http://community.freepascal.org:1/bboard/q-and-a-fetch-msg.tcl?msg_id=GQ&topic_id=4&topic=Developing%20for%20Dos

But I'm afraid the answer will turn out to be negative.

I have some big TP 5.5 program to port to some more recent compiler, and FP 
seems a fair choice, since a little trial convinced me of the great quality of 
the product.

Yet my target hardware is so poor that we have to stick to MS-DOS 6.20.

The fact is that I need to also port some multi-tasking software. I know DOS is 
not multi-tasking, but I had that software sold by a french company (that has 
long ago dissapeared halas) that fooled the Turbo Pascal 5.5 code into behaving 
in a multi tasking way (the DOS way, in fact you just switch between contexts, 
nothing more).

I also found some interesting software on the Internet providing what I need 
(MTASK) yet it seems to be adapted only to the Turbo Pascal code compiled 
behaviour, probably much different from Free PAscal.

My question is :

Is there, to your knowledge, anywhere (or anyone that would know) I could get 
some Free Pascal code of a "multitasker" under DOS ?

Regards.

Dear Sir,

This computer is Pantium 3, Windows 98, I am trying to make use of Pascal for a school project and to have the program to try some programs like calculator(addition, subtraction...), 

I downloaded Pascal from the site www.freepascal.org and choosed the Win32 - the download which consisted of the biggest size (18KB) or something like that, then I downloaded it and installed it and got this program.

I may be asked more questions about my computer system and program downloaded in this e-mail address [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I hope to recieving back from you.

It is already installed. However, the installation program does not 
automatically add an entry to the Start menu and also does not place an 
icon on your Desktop. You can start the IDE by choosing "Run..." in the 
Start menu and by typing "c:\pp\bin\win32\fp.exe" in the dialog box you 
get. It may be easier for you to install DevPascal though 
(), it uses FPC as compiler 
but behaves more like other Windows programs.
