Re: [lazarus] Cursor for TShape
there's no way to fix the case where e.g. user code changethe Cursor of the parent while the mouse is over the TShape. Yes, You are right I guess one will have to resort to doing this proposed fix, manually, using OnMouseEnter and OnMouseLeave, for now...That's the first thing I did on Linux.I converted one of my Delphi programs to Lazarus, and in the win32 version of Lazarus it is possible to change the cursor of a TShape. On Linux (gtk1) this doen't work, so I try to get the same behaviour on both platforms by allowing a cursor change on Linux.I try to get as close as possible to Delphi, so converting existing programs will be as easy as possible.

[lazarus] Gtk 1.x theme
Hi, I know this is not directly related to Lazarus, but can anybody recommend a good Gtk 1.x theme I can use under Linux and Lazarus. I really don't like the Default (no theme) theme. I just tried the Gorilla theme. It makes the buttons and scollbars look great, but ToolButtons disappear (eg: the buttons in Lazarus next to the Component Palette). The mouse-over on flat buttons don't seem to work either. I don't need anything flashy, just usable.

[lazarus] keyboard shortcuts in Lazarus menus
Hi, I tried to create a patch for this, but for the life of me, I couldn't find where this is defined in the IDE. If you look at the screenshot supplied, the shortcut key for Shift is spelled Shft. Also the shortcut key for Control is spelled Ctl instead of Ctrl. The keymapping.pp file seemed to be the place to look for this, but I could only find the correct spellings of those keyboard shortcuts. :-( I am using the latest SVN version, and it appears like this under Linux and Windows.

I create the aplha mask in function CreateBitmapMask. I draw source bitmap to monochromatic mask bitmap using a trick which changes the transparent color to white in the mask bitmap. I am not sure if it is multiplatform. And where is the 8 or 16 bit alpha mask created? I don't know what you are actually asking about. The CreateBitmapMask function creates only 1 bit mask, because it is enough to make one color transparent. Is there some need to create any bit-depth masks? I got the bad feeling there is a misunderstanding. At the moment the LCL only provides 1 bit transparency. For the LCL it does not matter if the alpha channel is separated in a MaskHandle or contained in the Handle. The gtk interface uses a combo Handle, while the win32 interface uses a separate MaskHandle. Of course we want alpha transparency, i.e. 1 bit, which is typically 8 or 16 bit alpha channel. AFAIK the gtk1 does not support 8 bit masks (at least not without tricks), but the gtk2 supports them. The only missing part is to add 8 bit transparency support to the gtk2 interface and some properties to TBitmap, so the user can select the alpha depth. I thought, your patch is starting the latter. But maybe you meant something different? Maybe. I wanted to implement bitmap color transparency, which is adjusted through TransparentColor porperty... Huh? This already works. What exactly are you trying to implement? But from my point of view it doesn't work. I have tested it on several various lazarus versions including the latest svn snapshot with attached small project and it simply does not function! Therefore I had thought it's not implemented and created that patch. Maybe it's only some bug occuring on my system. Thanks. The bitmap is loaded transparent. I could not test the := Image1.Picture.Bitmap.Canvas.Pixels[X, Y];, as this does is not yet implemented under gtk1 interface. You want to switch the transparentcolor, when the image is already loaded, right? I implemented that. Aboslutely right. It works but there is a problem with xpm images - when you set some transparent color, strange stripes appear (see screenshot 1). There is another issue: when the bitmap is loaded with default transparency (the left-bottom pixel color is transparent) then all pixels with this color appear to be black if transparent color is changed and the original color is lost (e.g. clFuchsia on sceenshot2). tombo

[lazarus] Unit Output Directory (-FU) option still not working 100%
Using latest SVN lazarus under Linux. There is a difference when you specify the directory in (1) Compiler Options - Unit Output Directory and (2) when you specify the -FUpath in the Compiler Options - Other - custom Options I have not specified a Target Filename in Project Options. (1) seems to always add the -opath and filename effectively giving the same result as the previous -FE option gave. I normally have a directory structure as follows: project \units--- compile .ppu and .o files live here project.exe -- executable and .compiled file lives here *.pas--- all source lives here If I use option (1), my executable ends in the \units directory. If I use option (2), my executable ends in the project directory, which is what I want, except if I specified a path in the Project Options - Target Filename. Below is the two .compiled files (note the -o path): created using option (1) * ?xml version=1.0?

Your questions certainly pointed me in the right direction and here was
the problem:
Unit pgcl uses postgres;
unit postgres {$LINKLIB pq} and uses dlllst
unit dlllst also {$LINKLIB pq}
However under Windows it should be {$LINKLIB libpq} in both files
Also make sure the compiler can find libpq.dll (adding the directory to
the compiler search path)

Please download 0.9.14-1. Detailed list of changes: removed fpc 2.0.0 compatibility workarounds. The IDE supports fpc 2.0.0, but you need at least 2.0.2 to compile Lazarus. removed TSize from LCLType, it it is defined in the FPC unit 'types' IDE now tries to save nearly all project files relative in .lpi compiler options of projects and packages now minimize search path on loading removed TCanvas.BrushCopy, because it was not implemented. added filter for 'Parameter Sender not used' hint removed references to ruwin translations if a package defines UseCThreads in its uses options, the cthreads unit will be add to the uses clause of new projects and applications and to lazarus itself. added cwstring for unix platforms for UTF8 conversion to system character set added simple check if system characterset is UTF8 to skip the conversion step added UTF8 conversion functions to cp1251 and koi8-r, compile with -dMultiLocale from Vasily Volchenko removed lazcwstring.pas, widestring support in fpc 2.0.2 is good enough wince interface: TCustomEdit from Felipe qt4 interface: TBitmap, TComboBox, TApplication, TCustomForm, TCustomButton, TTimer, TCheckBox, TRadioButton, TStaticText from Felipe added source editor popup menu item 'copy filename' fixes for 64 bit platforms added support for compiling for Solaris from Peter Vreman added sql highlighter to IDE added TSynHighlighterAny added keywords to TSynPasSyn: package, requires, contains improved IDE source position jumping when eoScrollPastEOL is disabled added package info in install packages dialog from Tomas Gregorovic added TMenuItem.IsLine from Graeme codetools: implemented parsing 'requires' and 'contains' sections codetools: Added directory cache. This accelerates mass searches. FCL TComponent.ValidateRename is case sensitive. Added case insensitive check in TDesigner, now it does not allow Button1 and BUTTON1. added TWinControl.SelectFirst added code macros (see Environment - Code Templates): date, time, datetime move directory 'debian' to top level: easier for building packages finished implementation of TWinControl.Repaint (fixes issue 1890) added GraphType aliases for Delphi compatibility calling TComboBox.OnSelect when ItemIndex changes moved EndQuerySession and EndSession handling after calling default window proc published TListBox.OnShowHint find dialog: added automatic ssoSelectedOnly if selection contains several lines using combobox autotext for findreplace dialog implemented cbactRetainPrefixCase for TComboBox implemented find declaration of Object Inspector property popupmenu item and context help for properties implemented editor option right margin implemented clearing messages on closing project added messages 'clear' menu item added wsMinimized check to TCustomForm.ShowOnTop added a warning on saving a package for missing files added TDynamicDataQueue in lcl/dynqueue.pas - a dynamic queue to push, pop and top arbitrary data implemented TGtkWidgetSet.SetWidgetFont for gtk2 added example demonstrating how to stream components win32 interface: implemented copying bitmap to clipboard implemented updating line numbers of messages on inserting/deleting lines added multithreading example implemented Quick Fix system and added example for IDE QuickFix item to fix 'Sender not used' items reduced libc dependencies published TComboBox.AutoComplete (issue 1706) added lazarus.lpi - a project info file for the IDE. delphi conversion tools: - added Delphi package conversion tool - moved conversion functions to the new 'converter' directory. - last delphi conversion project/package/unit is now remembered - multiple calls are now possible. That means, you can now start the Delphi project/package/unit converter, abort it at any time, fix some things manually and start the converter again.

Re: [lazarus] Please Help!!!
Thanks for the answers... Its working now, i have needed to add the button procedure to the class, under public worked well... Also, i was having problems, but then i saw that it was needed to specify (Sender:TObject) Then worked... I've used: fpc -Fu/usr/local/share/lazarus/lcl/units/powerpc-darwin -Fu/usr/ local/share/lazarus/lcl/units/powerpc-darwin/gtk -Fl/sw/lib -Fl/usr/ X11R6/lib tests.pas And compiled, and runs, but the button dont shows... So what i did was add: BUTTONS1 := TButton.Create(FORM); (FORM is the variable i've created for FORMCLASS... ) Compiles but button still dont exist.. Then at last looking on lazarus, button events/methods etc.. i sae Parent.. then wrote after Create(Self) BUTTONS1 := TButton.Create(Self); BUTTONS1.Parent:=FORM; And after that, everything worked fine, and the button is there After all of this, i did a test, to see if i can compile ussing Carbon, (i have the lcl compiled and ive tested on lazarus with sucess for textbox, buttons and checkboxes) and well, used this: fpc -Fu/usr/local/share/lazarus/lcl/units/powerpc-darwin -Fu/usr/ local/share/lazarus/lcl/units/powerpc-darwin/carbon -Fl/sw/lib -Fl/ usr/X11R6/lib tests.pas Just changed the /units/powerpc-darwin/gtk to /units/powerpc-darwin/ carbon and well i got these errors Linking tests /usr/bin/ld: Undefined symbols: _ActivateWindow _CallNextEventHandler _CreateEvent _DisposeEventHandlerUPP _GetApplicationEventTarget _GetCurrentEventTime _GetCurrentKeyModifiers _GetEventClass _GetEventDispatcherTarget _GetEventKind _GetEventParameter _GetGlobalMouse _GetKeyboardFocus _GetMainEventQueue _GetNextWindow _GetWindowList _InstallEventHandler _IsWindowActive _NewEventHandlerUPP _PostEventToQueue _QuitApplicationEventLoop _ReceiveNextEvent _ReleaseEvent _RemoveEventHandler _RunApplicationEventLoop _SendEventToEventTarget _SetEventParameter _YieldToAnyThread _GetControlEventTarget _GetWindowEventTarget _CFRelease _CFStringCreateWithCString _CreatePushButtonControl _CFStringGetCString _CFStringGetCStringPtr _CFStringGetLength _CopyControlTitleAsCFString _DisposeControl _HIViewGetBounds _SetControlBounds _SetControlTitleWithCFString _SetWindowBounds _CreateNewWindow _DisposeWindow _SetWindowResizeLimits _SetWindowTitleWithCFString _ShowWindow _CreateCheckBoxControl _CreateEditUnicodeTextControl _GetControl32BitValue _GetControlData _SetControl32BitValue _SetControlData _GetControlProperty _GetWindowProperty _IsValidControlHandle _RemoveControlProperty _RemoveWindowProperty _SetControlProperty _SetWindowProperty _DisposeControlActionUPP _GetCurrentEventButtonState _GetRootControl _GetWindowBounds _HIViewConvertPoint _HIViewGetSuperview _HIViewGetViewForMouseEvent _HIViewGetWindow _NewControlActionUPP tests.pas(71,2) Error: Error while linking Error: /usr/local/bin/ppcppc returned an error exitcode (normal if you did not specify a source file to be compiled) What this can be?

Re: [lazarus] Comments about DB2
Joost van der Sluis wrote: It sounds strange to me the phrase All things above do work, mr. Joost. Would I lose a pointer during the conversations? DB2 is another story as the other natively supported databases (mysql 4.0, 4.1, 5.0, Firebird, PostgreSQL and Oracle). The ODBC-connection is not as powerfull as the others. And in your case, you were using a datatype that isn't supported. Obviously ODBC can handle it, or else it also woudn't work on other ODBC applications, but I don't have any idea how to implement that. But I thought that some others (Bram - the author of the ODBC-connection) was looking at it? Yes, I will take a look at the possibilities to accurately translate the DB2 TIMESTAMP through both ODBC and TField's capabilities. (add here: and investigate the need to implement the TTimeStamp descendant) At the moment I'm very busy and I don't have much time improving the ODBCConnection, so it might take some time. There are some features on my wish-list, and I will implement them in time. I don't need all functionality for the application I primarily created the ODBCConnection for, but I'd like to extend the component such that other people can also use it for other purposes. I'm happy with any feedback about things not working, or feature requests, but I can't promise when I'll have time to implement something new. BTW, I will try to implement reading BLOB fields within a few weeks. There only is a small problem with that at the moment: I need to implement in TODBCConnection the function function CreateBlobStream(Field:TField; Mode:TBlobStreamMode):TStream; However, I need the TSQLHandle here (for the ODBC API call), not the TSQLConnection, where it is a method of. I think the Handle should be passed as an additional parameter. Or is there some way to (correctly) get the TSQLHandle from the Field parameter? Another thought on the problems Arí has with update queries and TODBCConnection: as I need only read access, I never implemented UpdateIndexDefs; might that be required?

Re: [lazarus] Please Help!!!
Hi Vincent.. Yeah looks good, but 100% under lazarus ide, i did the hard way :) Also, there're something about createmacapplication... Its not needed to use ln... Mac programer usually will distribute their applications everything in the same .app application, i mean, the applications are inside a folder with the extension .app and with an structure that createmacapplication creates; but, then the tutorial says you should use ls ive tested; it creates a symbolic link inside the package.. but the app is still not there, so if you send to some one or want to distribute the app, you will have a link inside instead the binary file as usual the mac apps does have inside.. so the right way is just taking the binary and copy / move it to apppname.app/Contents/MacOS/appnamebinary and thats it you can distribute your app. I think createmacapplication can be modified to copy the binary to the right place. Just that, the rest is ok for my opinion.. but also, can be good to have the handly way, ussing just the terminal :) Thanks. Roberto.

I think the Handle should be passed as an additional parameter. Or is there some way to (correctly) get the TSQLHandle from the Field parameter? Based on my experience and lot of years in the field I'd dare to say that TIMESTAMP is most used than BLOB and GRAPHICS. At least if we are speaking about business applications(like banks, credit card operators, etc) Sure, but what I understood from Bram, some other Timestamp/Datetime fields were working, only this particular sort of Timestamp isn't. Another thought on the problems Arí has with update queries and TODBCConnection: as I need only read access, I never implemented UpdateIndexDefs; might that be required? UpdateIndexDefs? What is the function of such method? Since data base manager ever keep the index(es) up-to-date and it has the index(es) description in its areas, I can't imagine... To let modifications things work automatically, it is needed. This function updates the information about the indexes on the table. From this information it derrives what the primary key is. And the where part of the update/insert/delete statements is depending on the primary key... But you could also 'manually' add all fields-definitions, and then set the field that should be used in the where-clause of the sql- statement. I would like to remember that it's so important that DB2 keep the TIMESTAMP in the format with 6 digits of fraction of second. BTW I thing and insist that a return of string [26] will be more easy(I think) and clear. People can do the conversions in the application program. I'm not sure about that. The developer is asking for a Date/time, so he'll expect that he'll get a Date/time. If you need a string from DB2, I would use a cast in the sql-statement.
