Hi all,
New features:
- building via external tools (fpc and make)
- "build lazarus" - the IDE can now compile itself
- method jumping will now consider comments
Explanation:
New options for external tools:
Output scanning for fpc and make messages.
A freepascal projects, which requires a make you can now
easily compile it via lazarus. The IDE can now invoke the make,
scan the code for fpc messages and if an error occurs, the file
be opened with the errorline highlighted.
For example:
Defining a key for building lazarus:
Go to Tools->Settings... and add a new external tool.
Fill in:
Title: build lazarus
Programfilename: /usr/bin/make
Parameters:
Working Directory: $(LazarusDir)
Turn both scan options on.
Define a key (e.g. Ctrl+Shift+L).
Click OK.
And click Ok again.
pressing Ctrl+Shift+L will now compile lazarus.
New tool: 'Build Lazarus' and 'Configure "Build Lazarus"'
This is a tool for lazarus developers. The IDE can now
compile itself and lazarus parts. You can define a key
for this tool.
Jump to method (Ctrl+Shift+CursorUp/Down)
Will now consider comments. If there is a comment in front
of a procedure, the jump will be adjusted.
