I tried numerous times before and searching my mailing list archive of 3 years I can see numerous other developers also being unsuccessful. I always get a blank output file. :-( Because everybody is using valgrind. I had no need to use gprof for years because valgrind is much better. BTW: Just tried gprof under linux, works as described in the manual. There is a basic native pascal profiler named fprofiler. It's in the fpcprojects section in SVN. The basics work although there are a lot of optimizations possible. The profiler works by inserting timing calls in the actual code, by parsing it first. I wrote a wrapper for the compiler (named fpp) to handle that. http://svn.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/fpprofiler/trunk/?root=fpcprojects Would be nice to create an IDE addin for this tool for Lazarus at some point, never thought of that before.

Hmm, I don't see how that would improve readability. Imho it would just be moving code about in the same class. Making a polymorphic class would modularize the cart component a bit more. It would make it more easy for instance to add mixed charts like line-bar or bar and error bar.

Re: [Lazarus] TAChart: simple patch and a code cleanup question

I also would like to do some code cleanup (e.g. consistent re-indenting) and refactoring of TAChart code. The patches will be fairly intrusive, touching almost every line of code. Will such patches be accepted? Thanks Alexander applied in r17240. About the other patch, please create a report in the bugtracker under patches and assign it to me. I will know what to do. As to the patches themselves, I don't mind you cleaning up code and re-indenting stuff, but please split it up in separate patches, this way we will still be able to see what and why things changed. I prefer that as opposed to one huge patch. Some remarks from my side about the current code; - there's a label/goto construct in the code. will you clean that up as well please while your at it? - I'm not sure if more TSeriesPointerStyles will follow from you, but I could imagine adding a box and whisker plot style point and an errorbar style (other variations on the theme as well) would be possible in the future. So what do you say about implementing a polymorphic TPointStyle class?

[Lazarus] Problems linking with QT4
I have some problems with linking to the QT widgetset. Apparently the linker does not like my library, but I believe to have correctly followed the instructions on the wiki. Is there anything else I need to do (or forget)? ldconfig -p | grep libqt4intf gives: libqt4intf.so (libc6,x86-64) = /usr/local/lib/libqt4intf.so The output of the build process is: Linking ../lazarus /usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/local/lib/libqt4intf.so when searching for -lqt4intf /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lqt4intf lazarus.pp(122,1) Error: Error while linking /usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/local/lib/libqt4intf.so when searching for -lqt4intf /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lqt4intf Regards, Darius ___ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lazarus.freepascal.org http://www.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus

Re: [Lazarus] New about dialog in 0.9.27 (svn trunk)
This has been fixed in r17088. Graeme, can you send me the URL of the bugreport? I recall you mentioning this issue on the ML, but I cannot find the bugreport in the tracker. If it exists then I want to close it.

Re: [Lazarus] Zip files?
Yes there is. Please look here: http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/ZipFile The current implementation though only supports uncompressed streams. But it should be fairly simple to implement compression.
