IMO we (FPC/Lazarus) should be prepared for providing a new home
for desparate Delphi coders, which will trash RadStudio for too
little and too slow progress, and lack of compatibility, at a
too high price. Failing to encourage this move will force most
current Delphi coders to use better supported development
environments, most likely C#. 
  
  Usually I do not interfere in these philosophical debates and just
  this one won't hurt I believe. I'm a delphinian since TurboPascal
  DOS and Delphi 1 on Windws 3.11: this a long time ago. I used
  almost all versions and stopped to buy new releases with D2007.
  Then I discoreved FPC and Lazaus at my actual job position. And
  because we develop for Windows as well as Linux platforms I'm very
  happy in my job using these pair. I'm not involved in GUI
  applications and that's why I do not really care about visual
  components. A very important thing for me is the reliability and
  the fact that FPC+Lazarus are multi-platform. But, closer to my
  day to day work, the most important feature is obviously the
  stability and continuity of both projects. I don't know if you can
  understand how much I'm happy when I change to a new version and I
  can continue my current job after a few minutes instead of hours
  or even days and most important perhaps, continue using my habits
  which means to become productive within minutes. Of course l take
  afterwards some time to see and learn what's new. You can easily
  understand why I hate Windo$, but this only my opinion.
  
  Maybe one thing could make happier than now: is it out there any
  plans to have Lazarus to manage project groups ? It is the only
  problem which bothers me. 
  
  Anyway, having furthermore a team of guys (no girls ?   ;-) )  like you
  behind the scene lets me very comfortable to go on with my
  projects. Thanks to you all.

IMO it also would look like much more profitable to me, to make
Wirth's Oberon as popular as Delphi was. At a closer look it has
a GUI well suited for handhelds, competing with Win8 or other OS
for portables. And as its memory is fully garbage collected, it
also would fit neatly into any .NET environment. Again I wonder
how Niklaus was ahead of the mainstream (hardware) development
with his ideas :-)

On 04/24/2013 04:42 PM, Hans-Peter Diettrich wrote:
But AFAIK according inter-process communication is very platform 
specific, dunno what common means the RTL offers for such purposes.


Obviously, the RTL alone can't do it. The dirty details of the 
EventQueue handling needs to be done in the LCL (or at least with the 
LCL in mind), because you need to merge the GUI-events with the internal 
"language" events. ( I understand that with Windows the merging needs to 
take place at the "output" of the EventQueue(s), while with other 
WidgetTypes the merging needs to take place at the "input" of the 
EventQueue(s). )


This is why I claim, that a decent solution needs to introduce 
modifications in the RTL and in all LCL WidgetType implementations (that 
provide GUI-events). (You can take a look at the mse-project that seems 
to have a kind of unified RTL and LCL. here the EventQueues already 
works perfectly on all supported platforms with and without a GUI binding.


I feel that the code for the "Language" event queue needs to be done in 
the RTL (I suppose it already is, because you can use it via 
checksynchronize() ). The LCL WidgetType code thus should not create yet 
another Queue (as it is done right now), but the RTL should enable it to 
merge events GUI form an external Queue (such as existing in Windows) or 
push GUI events in the RTL Queue (supposedly viable for GTK and other 
Widgets)


On top of this decent "full featured" non-GUI WidgetTypes (for 
"embedded" main programs, CGI-programs, Daemons, Windows services, ...), 
and new WidgetTypes (e.g. Browser handled: similar to ExtPascel, ...) 
can much easier be done.


I suppose this is the main problem: for a decent solution a common 
concept for RTL and LCL (i.e. a decent interface-definition based on 
objects) needs to be defined and agreed upon by both core teams, before 
any work can be started. (I fear this never will happen.)

WinForms is not 100% portable via Mono (last I checked). I wouldn't go
that route either because Microsoft will be on your case when it suits
them - and probably just when your product becomes successful.

I didn't mean the whole IDE. Just parts: help system, editor, form
designer, language tool in editor (like what CodeTools is). But that
sure makes it about 70% of what an IDE is.

Java seems way more lucrative to me... The Java eco-system is massive,
and that also opens the doors to Android (which is also Java and the
biggest mobile platform). But that's just me thinking out loud.

Neither Mono nor DotGNU are implementations of whatever MS understands

If it is that slow they should just offer ready made virtual machines that
can be installed for testing, or create some Amazon images for it. The
Amazon part may be easier as the licensing is taken care of, but with local
virtual machines will that be an issue? Who wants to spend 2 hours
installing a piece of software, go though complicated licensing steps just
to discover its bugs?

This is why Linux rules.

I think I played already with this but nothing changed (I set 
TListBox.ScrollWidth to arbitrary high values).

And even if it works, would I have to scan all string widths after each change 
to find the widest string and then set TListBox.ScrollWidth to it?
That would be very awkward.

Re: [Lazarus] Can not run in debug mode for WinCe

2013-04-25 Thread GREP 
I ran this same project with Lazrus 0.0... for about a year.
The gdb was the same.
The problem is clearly with some settings/options in Lazarus.
There are *NO BLUE DOTS* in the compiledsource.The break points
show a question mark.
I have the D:\ in Other source. 
That workaround does not work here.

I don't use  WinCE myself, so I can only be of limited help here. (I do 
know the debugger stuff)


Please generate and provide a log: 
http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/GDB_Debugger_Tips#Log_info_for_debug_session



In the debugger options is a property grid. One entry is 
InternalStartBreak. Please try, if changing this makes a difference. 
(try entry or main)

Are you debugging with the emulator or a real device?

For me I used the emulator and followed the wiki instructions and it
all just worked. So maybe you should try the emulator if possible for
your project.

Hello,

That's exactly what the operative system do in autosize columns, but 
usually only in additions, so you only store the largest one and the one 
that would add, if the new one is larger, scroll is adjusted, if 
smaller, nothing is done until a full autosize is requested.

[Lazarus] Error writing to remote device (emulator)

2013-04-25 Thread GREP 
Sorry if I doublepost. I had posted this in the forum.lazarus.freepascal, BUT
afterward I noticed
that the last post there (WinCE widgetset) was dated 11-April, and the
previous one dec-2012, so I assume it is kind of in a sleeping mode.

I am trying to run my app on the WM6.1 emulator, but I get this error:
(debugger output)
~"Uploading file to device: \\Storage Card\\app.exe\n"
&"error writing to remote device - 0.\n"
I use -eval-command="set remotedirectory \Storage Card" in
Tools->Options->Debugger.

My app is 22.6 Mb, band runs fine when I copy manually to the sharedforlder
and run directly form WM 6.1 emulator, but the debugger copies always 2.41
MB and then gets the error.
Any idea why?
I am using Lazarus 1.0.8, SVN Rev 40573.
The error came out of the blue ski.
I had just fixed some problems with  building the app correctly, and did run
fine a few times on the WM 6.1.
Then there it comes the error.
I even reset the emulator, re-booted the PC (XP). I ran out of ideas
Any Help?

Not related to your problem, but i use external debug file, it reduce the
size of exe and stay at your PC,

Be sure you can Explore files using ActiveSync

Re: [Lazarus] Error writing to remote device (emulator)

2013-04-25 Thread GREP 
This is a real pain in the neck.
Google-searching for "error writing to remote device" gives only the source
code of the gdb.
And since the complete line is "error writing to remote device - 0", it
seems
that Cegetlasterror() returns 0.
But what may cause the gdb copying to stop as soon as it has copied
2.41 MB? Is it something in  the Device Manager/Emulator, or something
in the Lazarus settings/option? 
As I said it is a real pain

[Lazarus] Something is unstable....

2013-04-25 Thread GREP 
I recompiled the lazarus itself with "Clean all" option.
I recompiled my app eliminating the -eval comma "set remote directory..."
I ran it and it crashed (b/c of storage memory shortage)
I re-instated the -eval command, and now I see the blueish dots in the code,
the app.exe 
is indeed copied in its entirety to the storage card, BUT before it is
loaded 
in the WM 6.1 emulator, I start to see these errores:

Project raised exception class RunError 201
in file \wince\wincewinapi.inc at line 3036
Then Range check error same file, same line.
The file is lazarus\lcl\interfaces\wince\wincewinapi.inc, the line is:
 // We get some information before calling SetScrollInfo because it changes
  // the GWL_STYLE under Windows CE
  dwStyle := GetWindowLong(Handle, GWL_STYLE);

The debugger output shows also

&"info line \"D:\\hd\\unit101.pas\":174\n"
&"No source file named D:\\hd\\unit101.pas.\n"
VERY STRANGELY b/c now the breakpoint line shows the ok sign, not the ?.
And all lines of code show the blue dot. and of course the unit101 exists

These are the option/settings:
