I would say the internal dwarf debugger in Lazarus proved rather more reliable - maybe this is a better default for Linux? What debug type info are you using? I know that gdb has quite some issues with FPC's dwarf 3. There are a few people who say dwarf 3 works for them, but I do highly recommend dwarf-2-with-sets. That said gdb with dwarf-2 is not crash free either. Just a little less likely... Many crashes happens when accessing watches (or locals or parameters). Finding what it crashes on: https://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/GDB_Debugger_Tips#Log_info_for_debug_session Then you might be able to avoid it... Maybe... In Lazarus 2.1 fpdebug is pre-installed. But not yet the default. That decision is still pending. But ultimately the idea is for it to become the default. -- ___ lazarus mailing list lazarus@lists.lazarus-ide.org https://lists.lazarus-ide.org/listinfo/lazarus

I am running Lazarus trunk on Manjaro Linux and just debugged Lazarus IDE itself without problems. (Bug tracker issue #36872). Actually debugging works amazingly well despite its known limitations. My FPC is now 3.0.4 but I don't think it makes a difference. The debug info format has not changed. It is either a Lazarus problem or a Fedora problem.

If your patch works it surely should be applied and merged to 2.0.8 branch. Apparently Michl is not active right now so I assigned the issue to Martin. I myself don't have a Windows now. I am setting up Lazarus under Wine in my new super-computer (!) and then I can test Windows patches, too. Wine has improved steadily and is very good nowadays. Issue #36798 is solved and I believe the commit r62781 can be merged. I will not add it to the list, somebody else must decide it. I see you have added a documentation update _after_ the issue was resolved. Please reopen the issue, it is left unnoticed otherwise.

Re: [Lazarus] We are planning the next release: Lazarus 2.0.8
Martin, I haven't reported this bug because it's difficult to reproduce, but with some of the recent releases and many of the trunk check in there seems to be a lot of problems with the sparta docked form designer (DFD), at least on Linux gtk2. What happens is that with the DFD installed on Linux gtk2 as the user tries to use the left mouse button in the designer to either click on or lasso select controls, the designer acts as if the previous selection is included in the selection. This happens randomly. The effect is that DFD is difficult to use. You go to select a control by clicking on it and instead it creates a selection group including the item you click on and whatever was last selected. This prevents users from editing a component or control using the DFD and instead they have to clear the selection (by clicking on a blank area of the form) then clicking on a control or component. It is very annoying, but doesn't happen 100% of the time, more like 50%. When you have a revision number you feel comfortable for me to test, I can try it and report the status of this issue back. If it fails with that revision I can submit a mantis issue and perhaps look at what's going on as well. For anyone else, if you are using Linux, gtk2, and the DFD, it would be helpful if you could confirm this behavior and perhaps note the pattern you see. That is what is happening when this problem occurs. Thanks. -- ___ lazarus mailing list lazarus@lists.lazarus-ide.org https://lists.lazarus-ide.org/listinfo/lazarus
