[lazarus] Lazarus hanging/crashing

[Shane Miller]

Any idea when the bug in FPC concerning calling functions assigned by doing this:

OnPaint := @FORM1PAINT;

if Assigned(OnPaint) then
   OnPaint(Sender);

This still crashes as of yesterday.....

Thanks
Shane

Speaking of keeping backups of earlier compilers....

I have a bash shell script (but it would run under KSH and other shells) that I
made that cleans everything up properly and builds the compiler and all the
other related parts. It keeps a copy of the compiler. About once a week or so,
I just go through and delete some of the older compilers. But by doing it this
way, I always have at least the last 5 compilers. So it is easy to use older
versions. It is a pretty decent little script for 2 minutes of work. It saves me
a ton of time. Anyway, if anyone wants a copy of this script, let me know and I
will send it to you.


Thanks...Curtis
