Re: [Lazarus] OSX 64 bit Cocoa + Catalina Installer
I have to search my backup drives for some of this code, but I believe I also added a few extra classes to simplify some of the weirdness of Apple's classes. For example I greatly simplified the steps needed to work with CGContext and CGBitmapContextCreate such that it was completely transparent. A TCGBitmap class was defined (not in the framework, but wrapping CGBitmapContextCreate), and it would be compatible with TCGContext, but adding methods for loading, saving, blitting ect. Also some types have been simplified, NSString becomes regular pascal string, NSRect/CGRect becomes TRectF, and so on. Obviously defining all these types is definitely a lot of work, but to reiterate it does aid in type safety, object management, and discovery (how to combine the use the Framework objects with each other). One approach to tackling all this work, if anyone decides it's beneficial, might be to add it in gradually for what is needed, which is how I am using it right now. -- ___ lazarus mailing list lazarus@lists.lazarus-ide.org https://lists.lazarus-ide.org/listinfo/lazarus

Re: [Lazarus] OSX 64 bit Cocoa + Catalina Installer
Dimitry, What I've done is created a reference counted class hierarchy to match part of the Cocoa framework. It's only partially done, but it allows Pascal code to be written to simplify interaction with native OSX frameworks and APIs like AppKit in the following ways: Using NSWindow class as an example: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appkit/nswindow * TNSWindow mirrors NSWindow and uses an automatic reference counting scheme to automatically release objects when they are are no longer needed. * All methods and properties of NSWindow are provided by TNSWindow and there is no need to pass native objects as handles to functions. It's implicit in Self and the underlying handle is manged by TNSWindow -> TNSResponder -> TNSObject -> and ultimately TFrameworkObject. * It uses an object oriented hierarchy the same as the Apple frameworks, only translated to Pascal objects. That is you can pass a derived class to methods of other object methods which may expect any less specific class. * Other classes such as CGContext (TCGContext -> TFrameworkObject) are provided as well as other Apple frameworks classes, all translated to Pascal classes with all the same benefits as outlined above. My implementation isn't complete, which is to say I haven't wrapped every single Apple framework class in the manner described above. For the extremely limited amount of translations I did complete, I saw a big benefit in my own personal projects on OSX. Most notably the way of organizing code I outlined above allowed me to much more easily understand how to use Apple's frameworks, reduce errors with type safety and automatic object lifetime management, as well as aid in the discovery when combining Apple framework object to accomplish programming tasks. I expect if this were integrated into the Cocoa widgetset it would make development a bit easier. Certainly there is a lot of work involved in defining every Apple framework object in this way, but it provides a certain level of organization and usability that I at least feel makes a big difference when working with native Apple APIs. -- ___ lazarus mailing list lazarus@lists.lazarus-ide.org https://lists.lazarus-ide.org/listinfo/lazarus

Re: [Lazarus] OSX 64 bit Cocoa + Catalina Installer
Note to all, the install source I posted comes from a random clone of svn trunk fpc and trunk lazarus put together from whatever was in the svn repository on Saturday. As such it might contain any number of potential bugs. That said, the reason trunk sources should be used is that the Cocoa widgetset is still in a beta state. Personally I've implemented some OSX core classes in a manner that is much more elegant manner that what's currently used in the Cocoa widgetset and if time permits I may propose some of my changes that could push Cocoa forward in a positive direction. I feel that many of the problems everyone might be experiencing is tied to the specific implementation state we currently have. This is not meant as a dig on the Cocoa LCL widgetset developers, obviously its difficult and tedious work trying to create a 100% compatible and bug free implementation and you work is very much appreciated so please keep it up! I know well get it working. On a side note, if anyone reading this message has done some work on committing widgetset code to Lazarus, either with the Gtk3 or Cocoa libraries, and would like to coordinate some of my improvements we can take this discussion to private emails or perhaps freenode irc and we can hash out merging my work. -- ___ lazarus mailing list lazarus@lists.lazarus-ide.org https://lists.lazarus-ide.org/listinfo/lazarus

Re: [Lazarus] OSX 64 bit Cocoa + Catalina Installer
Ryan, To answer your question, I just haven't taken the time to try out lldb yet. I guess it can be switched to lldb in the Lazarus interface. About that crash, it probably comes from somewhere in the Cocoa widgetset, which is currently still in development. It's far along enough to enable the Lazarus IDE to run, but still has problems. Unfortunately Catalina and all OSX versions going forward are 64 bit only, and Carbon is 32 bit only, so we're all going to have to help improve the Cocoa widgetset. The means were going to need to fix errors like you posted. Hopefully we can get some patches submitted to Mantis tagged with Cocoa. -- ___ lazarus mailing list lazarus@lists.lazarus-ide.org https://lists.lazarus-ide.org/listinfo/lazarus

You may want to try these alternate steps and skip the debugger install steps (the script already installed it), and proceed with the code signing steps: https://gist.github.com/hlissner/898b7dfc0a3b63824a70e15cd0180154 https://www.ics.uci.edu/~pattis/common/handouts/macmingweclipse/allexperimental/mac-gdb-install.html If you used Homebrew, then this bit of code will test if the dnu debugger is properly code signed: SIGNED="$(codesign -dv /usr/local/bin/gdb 2>&1)" echo $SIGNED And on Macports use this code: SIGNED="$(codesign -dv /opt/local/bin/ggdb 2>&1)" echo $SIGNED Unsigned gnu debuggers will include this text in $SIGNED: "object is not signed" -- ___ lazarus mailing list lazarus@lists.lazarus-ide.org https://lists.lazarus-ide.org/listinfo/lazarus

Well, yes one day.. But for today, it means you no longer need to codesign gdb. lldb comes with apples tools. (afaik). And lldb is already codesigned. The IDE combines it with fpdebug in order improves the display of watches (more pascal-ish). -- ___ lazarus mailing list lazarus@lists.lazarus-ide.org https://lists.lazarus-ide.org/listinfo/lazarus

Martin, Yes I read the message requesting lldb testing the other day. I haven't taken the time to test it yet, but as I understand it's a great project that will hopefully allow for better debugging (such as inspecting and changing properties at runtime) but is still missing some important functionality. About code signing the gnu debugger, yes this page hopefully will help you get started, but I understand it can be a bit finicky. https://www.getlazarus.org/setup/macintosh/ Most of those steps apply, but the steps to stop the gatekeeper service and restart it may vary a bit depending on your OSX version. Additionally, there may be a more related problem for OSX Catalina users, as it now is forcing non CLI applications from sources other than the official app store to be notarized before being allowed to run. The same gatekeeper service is responsible for this on Catalina. Apparently it can take hours to generate a certificate for you program.app files, and you need to manually insert xml data into the plist data. I've read that Apple has suspended this requirement until sometime in 2020, giving developers more time to adjust, but to me it seems rather draconian. Here is a useful tip though, according to the first comment on a recent HN article you can bypass notarization checks when running your visual apps by right clicking them and selecting open the first time: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21179970 If that doesn't work I've heard holding alt when left clicking your program.app will also bypass notarization checks. And finally, Ryan Joseph put together this useful information and github page related to fpc Catalina development: https://www.mail-archive.com/fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org/msg51807.html The short of all this information is: We need more testing. -- ___ lazarus mailing list lazarus@lists.lazarus-ide.org https://lists.lazarus-ide.org/listinfo/lazarus

[Lazarus] OSX 64 bit Cocoa + Catalina Installer
Testers need. I created a new installer for OSX that includes a 64-bit only Cocoa version of FPC and Lazarus. I don't have Catalina installed, so I am looking for testers and any variety of OSX. The installer is a shells script that will walk you through Xcode, Homebrew or Macports, as well as setting up the debugger. You will also be prompted for a install folder that defaults to $HOME/Development/FreePascal, but you can change the install path during installation. This setup will use configuration files inside of their own folder and will not interfere with you existing versions of Lazarus as long as you donot choose the same folder as your already existing fpc and lazarus locations. To uninstall simply delete the folder you choose for install. Download setup.sh from: https://www.getlazarus.org/download/?platform=macintosh Then ... chmod +x setup.sh ./setup.sh After installation is complete you will get convenience lazarus.app file in you install folder which can be moved anywhere including to your Applications folder. Please note, this setup program installs a 64 bit fpc and lazarus with Cocoa only. It does not install a 32 bit fpc and does not use the Carbon widgetset. -- ___ lazarus mailing list lazarus@lists.lazarus-ide.org https://lists.lazarus-ide.org/listinfo/lazarus
