Re: [Lazarus] SQLDB invalid handle
Bram Kuijvenhoven wrote: I don't have a Sybase server or even a Sybase ODBC driver here, but after modifying your code to connect to a MySQL server that I have running, I also got an exception (an Access Violation actually). Note that if the query SQL is invalid (such as a non existing table name in SELECT), I get an Access Violation instead. Did you adapt the SQL to your database? On the other hand, I tested FPC 2.2.2 with Firebird (ODBC) and it gives the same error. However, with IBConnection instead of ODBCConnection, there is no error. So the error lies specifically in TODBCConnection. ___ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lazarus.freepascal.org http://www.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus

Thanks! I had spent half an hour looking for the chm files to no avail. I guess http://www.hu.freepascal.org/lazarus/ should be updated to reflect this file. As for the search index, are you referring to what appears under Index or Search? Other lhelp bugs: - The top of the Index page is covered by some invisible control. Navigating to the Search page then back to the Index page solves this. - The Search page does not have an edit box to type the search keyword. - Invoking lhelp from the IDE inevitably launches a console terminal (Win XP) which is unnecessary.

Re: [Lazarus] Register Package Help
Mattias Gaertner wrote: You named the package the same as the unit. The IDE should not allow this. Please create a bug report and explain how you did that. Did you create a new package, added the file and then saved the package? Well the IDE allows it AFAIK. I encountered this bug a long time ago by creating a new package with a unit, and saving the package (Save or Save As??) with the same name as that of the unit. Hadn't I had a backup, I would have lost the unit altogether as the IDE happily replaced my unit without warning. The bug tracker was down then, and I forgot later on about the issue.

Re: [Lazarus] Printing in Text mode on Windows?
Lee Jenkins wrote: I did happen upon the rawmodetest example in /components/printing, but it doesn't seem to work. I tried it on Windows using an Epson 220 dot matrix receipt printer installed with the Generic Text Drive without success. Any pointers? It should work. In its normal mode, the Epson TM-U220 will print any printable ASCII character it receives. If your printer is a serial one, you should take care of the serial parameters such as the baud rate and flow control. Using a parallel printer would be much easier. In any case, you can test the raw mode printing without using any printer at all. Just set the port of the Generic Text Printer to File, print using your routine, and inspect the file. That would show you whether it is your routine's fault or the printer's (which could be set to page mode).

As usually I've done on other distro I downloaded fpc 2.2.0 script and got a svn checkout from lazarus repository. Now, I had to login as root to install fpc script because for default sudo is not allowed on Mepis, so I did not have write permission on /etc for fpc.cfg and it was fine but now, when I tried to compile Lazarus, I got the tipical Can't find unit contnrs used by Masks. Of course, trying to compile as root works fine and I can have a working Lazarus as well. I checked fpc.cfg path and it seems ok ! Any ideas ? Thanks Antonio I had a similar problem 2 days ago trying to compile and install FPC 2.2.1 on Windows. I ran fpcmkcfg to create fpc.cfg and changed the paths manually to absolute ones as they were relative ones due to the exact error message you described.

Typing in the IDE editor is a nightmare; you have to push each button for about a second to get it to show up in the editor. On the other hand, this problem does not show up when typing in Compiler Options dialog box or in other applications. Must be either a Synedit or Lazarus editor issue. Any ideas?
