It's pretty simple if someone can improve it, it would help

[Lazarus] Tool to convert a multiline text to a pascal string constant

2016-02-02 Thread Luiz Americo Pereira Camara 
Hi is there any tool for Lazarus to convert a multi line text (xml snipet,
SQL) to a string constant?

Currently i'm using the following regular expression

http://regexr.com/3cna5

If some one knows a better regular expression that handles putting ';'
instead of '+ LineEnding +' in last line would help also

Well, that's a lot shorter than the program I wrote to doo just that.

Shouldn't there be something already in Lazarus itself that you could use?
Back at the time when all resources were pascal string constants?

I think it doesn't replace single-quote character (') by doubled
single-quote character ( '' )

As part of PasDoc project we have developed simple file_to_pascal_string
utility for this purpose. Just get
http://svn.code.sf.net/p/pasdoc/code/trunk/source/tools/file_to_pascal_string.dpr
and compile it.

Alongside, there's also file_to_pascal_data that converts anything to an
"array [0 .. Xxx] of Byte" (good to include binary data in the same
way). See
http://svn.code.sf.net/p/pasdoc/code/trunk/source/tools/file_to_pascal_data.dpr
. And see http://pasdoc.sipsolutions.net/ for whole PasDoc website and
links to whole SVN and GIT sources.

I'm using these utilities throughout my projects -- PasDoc, Castle Game
Engine, to include text and binary data inside compiled file. (Although
at some point I may migrate to using FPC cross-platform resource files
for similar purpose.)

Regards,
Michalis

In MSEide select the text in source editor, RightClick-'Convert to Pascal 
string'. Code is here:
https://gitlab.com/mseide-msegui/mseide-msegui/raw/master/lib/common/kernel/mseformatstr.pas
Function "stringtopascalstring()".

Yes, the tiSQLEditor (written for the tiOPF project) can do just that
(and much more of course). It can convert text to the clipboard (in the
case of the application, normally SQL statements, but any text really)
to Object Pascal strings. It can do the reverse too.  You are welcome to
copy the relevant code out of the project and make a small Memo plus one
Button tool, or simply download the latest binary of tiSQLEditor.


http://sourceforge.net/p/tiopf/tiopf_apps/ci/master/tree/tiSQLEditor_fpGUI/

The code is located in the frm_editor.pas unit.


Binaries of tiSQLEditor can be downloaded from here:

   http://sourceforge.net/projects/tiopf/files/Utilities/

Re: [Lazarus] Tool to convert a multiline text to a pascal string constant

2016-02-02 Thread Den 
I submitted a patch at one point that never got accepted which uses 
{$INCLUDESTRINGFILE filename} and it includes it as a string. So you 
could do:


Const SOME_TEXT = {$INCLUDESTRINGFILE sometext.txt};

I've seen a couple of Debian's fpc "upgrades" break Lazarus, but I'm
running Jessie (stable). All I did to fix the problem was disallow
upgrades to either Lazarus or fpc, and I download the .debs from
SourceForge. 

I do also have an installation from getlazarus that's working just
fine once someone sent me a replacement script, that's fpc 3.1.1 and
Lazarus 1.7. Once again, though, this is Jessie, not sid. 

Brian.
