[lazarus] streaming error with TIBDatabase

[hernan.et at pg.com]

Hi all,

How can I get the latest copy of fcl?

Here is what I did.

cvs -d :pserver:cvs at cvs.freepascal.org:/FPC/CVS login
cvs -d :pserver:cvs at cvs.freepascal.org:/FPC/CVS -z 3 update -r FIXES_1_0_0 -Pd fpc

I checked the files db.pp and interbase.pp, the only difference I see are

1. in TIBQuery the property is declared twice in the published section.
2. TDBDataset's Database property was changed from published to public.

Am I doing the right way of getting the latest copy. By the way, I am using WinCVS. And also, I tried to cycle my compiler using the above command to get
the latest updates of the compiler and I get a version of 1.0.8-prexxxxx. Can I use this compiler in Lazarus?

Regards,

Yoyong

Great. Streaming seems to work now. At least if you delete the double
DataBase property of TIBQuery.

I have added a lazarus package InterbaseLaz for interbase. It also shows how
to create packages for the FCL.
