I don't have the problem under Linux, and I used Lazarus SVN of yesterday (which I think is recent enough). I don't know how to override the '/tmp' in Lazarus to see if Lazarus IDE will have problems with spaces in directory names under Linux too. As far as I know Linux doesn't use a TEMP environment variable like Windows - /tmp always exist under *nix type OSes so is normally a safe choice. -- Regards, - Graeme - ___ fpGUI - a cross-platform Free Pascal GUI toolkit http://opensoft.homeip.net/fpgui/ ___ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal

On linux *you* don't use project1.rc, so you don't miss it. Linux simply doesn't support icons in executables like windows does. It has nothing to do with the location on /tmp.

I have been trying to compile a simple test program and I keep getting the following errors: c:\lazarus\fpc\2.2.4\bin\i386-win32\windres.exe: can't open file `project1.manifest': No such file or directory I am about a week ahead of you with Lazarus, and I struggled with that error too. It seems you must save the project once before you can compile it. After the first save, you can make changes and recompile without saving again, but that first save seems to be crucial.

After the first save, you can make changes and recompile without saving again, but that first save seems to be crucial. Please report this in Mantis as a Windows specific bug. Under Linux (just tried again with latest SVN version) one could always (as long as I can remember) compile and run projects without saving them. The IDE automatically saves the project to the global /tmp directory (which has read/write access for all users on the system). I would have thought under Windows it would use a similar process, using the logged-in users temp directory somewhere inside Documents and Settings directory. -- Regards, - Graeme - ___ fpGUI - a cross-platform Free Pascal GUI toolkit http://opensoft.homeip.net/fpgui/ ___ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal

It's not a windows bug, I think that the /tmp folder of the user has spaces: C:\users\John Smith\temp And this could raise problems. I had tested the new project (clean) compilation and works perfectly in WinXP but my /tmp is C:\Temp. I think it will happend in any platform when the temp folder points to somewhere with spaces. -- Best regards, JoshyFun ___ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
