No, the AggPas code is still kept in a separate folder. The only
mixing between fpGUI & AppPas is localised to a single unit, and that
unit is not needed for any of AggPas specific code or demos.

No, I meant not under fpGUI, thanks.

The original AggPas author only released AggPas as a zip / tarball
archive.  There never was any public source code repository. The
original author also moved on, and created a commercial venture from
AggPas, now called CrossGL (Cross platform Graphics Library), so he
doesn't work on the original AggPas version any more.

Also, fpGUI can now use AggPas as the graphics library (instead of
XLib or GDI) - see the screenshot in the fpgui.development newsgroup.
Once fully tested, it will become the default graphics library for
fpGUI, so a copy of AggPas must be included with fpGUI to compile.

As for Lazarus including a copy of AggPas - I have no idea what was
the plans behind that. They will never use AggPas as a graphics
library for LCL, because it is not "native". Lazarus's AggPas package
is also not a default installed package in Lazarus IDE as far as I
know. So it seems the thinking was to supply an optional and more
powerful Canvas class, compared to the default LCL Canvas, for those
developers that need it in specialised projects.

I does now! ;-)

I haven't publish my copy of AggPas yet (which contains the 64-bit
fixes). I'll probably push those changes to the fpGUI repository later
today or tomorrow.

I'll also supply some of the vital patches to the Lazarus community,
so they can fix their AggPas copy.

Hi Graeme, this is completely off topic. Does AggPas works in 64bits Linux? I 
remember it didn't compile last year.

I owe you a beer!  :-)

The original constructor in TfpgCanvasBase was virtual, but some
descendant classes did a 'reintroduce' of the constructor which wasn't
virtual. Looking at the code now, the reintroduce isn't needed any
more and thus removed.

It works perfectly now, thanks!!  fpGUI developers can now easily
switch between X11, GDI and AggPas canvas's. :-D

Is the constructor virtual?
