Subject: [Lazarus] Missing resources???
Message-ID: <10157531625474342@myt6-c0045123b21e.qloud-c.yandex.net>

Hi all

I experience a strange issue.
I managed to build Lazarus GUI project for Windows. Lazarus v2.1.0
It's cross-compilation if it matters. This project is built from simple makefile made by hand, -WG flag passed to compiler.

However, on start it neither shows main form nor emits any errors/exceptions.

Looks I can only suspect something is wrong. 
Can it be due to resource files not linked in properly? How can it be checked? 
I tried both .res & .lrs files generation using lazres.
Where compiler looks for .res files? It's not clear from documentation.

Any help?

Denis Golovan

My main form had my second display Left,Top coordinates.
Thus it just wasn't visible.

Subject: [Lazarus] Lazarus Release Candidate 1 of 2.2.0
Message-ID: <df4b97c0-ef82-280b-c14e-4be0df75196e@netcologne.de>

The Lazarus team is glad to announce the first release candidate of
Lazarus 2.2.

This release was built with FPC 3.2.2.

Here is the list of changes for Lazarus and Free Pascal:
http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Lazarus_2.2.0_release_notes
http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/User_Changes_3.2.2

Here is the list of fixes for Lazarus 2.2.x:
http://wiki.freepascal.org/Lazarus_2.2_fixes_branch

The release is available for download on SourceForge:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/lazarus/files/

Choose your CPU, OS, distro and then the "Lazarus 2.2RC1" directory.

Checksums for the SourceForge files:
https://www.lazarus-ide.org/index.php?page=checksums#2_2_0RC1

Minimum requirements:

Windows:
   2k, XP, Vista, 7, 8, 8.1 and 10, 32 or 64bit.

FreeBSD/Linux:
   gtk 2.8 for gtk2, qt4.5 for qt, qt5.6 for qt5, 32 or 64bit.

Mac OS X:
   Cocoa (64bit) 10.12 to 11.4, Carbon (32bit) 10.5 to 10.14, qt and
   qt5 (32 or 64bit).

The svn tag is
http://svn.freepascal.org/svn/lazarus/tags/lazarus_2_2_0_RC1

Last trunk svn revision was r65398.

For people who are blocked by SF, the Lazarus releases from SourceForge
are mirrored at:ftp://ftp.freepascal.org/pub/lazarus/releases/

== Why should everybody (including you) test the release candidate? ==

In the past weeks the Lazarus team has stabilized the 2.2 fixes branch.
The resulting 2.2RC1 is now stable enough to be used by any one for
test purposes.

However many of the fixes and new features that where committed since
the release of 2.0 required changes to the code of existing features
too. While we have tested those ourselves, there may still be problems
that only occur with very specific configurations or one project in a
million.

Yes, it may be that you are the only person with a project, that will
not work in the new IDE. So if you do not test, we can not fix it.

Please do not wait for the final release, in order to test. It may be
too late. Once the release is out we will have to be more selective
about which fixes can be merged for further 2.2.x releases. So it may
be, that we can not merge the fix you require. And then you will miss
out on all the new features.

== How to test ==

Download and install the 2.2 RC1.
- On Windows you can install as a 2ndary install, that will not affect your current install:
http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Multiple_Lazarus#Installation_of_multiple_Lazarus
- On other platforms, if you install to a new location you need to use
--primary-config-path

In either case you should make backups. (including your primary config)

Open your project in the current Lazarus (2.0.x), and use "Publish Project" from the project menu. This creates a clean copy of your project.

You can then open that copy in the RC1. Please test:
- If you can edit forms in the designer
   - rename components / change properties in Object inspector / Add new events
   - Add components to form / Move components on form
   - Frames, if you use them
- If you can navigate the source code (e.g. jump to implementation)
- Auto completion in source code
- Compile, debug and run
- Anything else you use in your daily work

Hi,

i just "ruined" layout of the anchor docking manager in the IDE.

Reinstall the package does not restore the default layout and pulling
for example object inspector does not help.

I would expect the IDE would show where to place the object inspector by
painting a frame where it would sit if i stop dragging?!

Tipps are welcome ...

If your main problem is resetting messed up settings for anchordocking
package, you can edit or delete the saved settings.  Open
environmentoptions.xml in your Lazarus profile folder (e.g. on Windows:
c:\users\username\AppData\Local\lazarus), search for <AnchorDocking> and
either edit or delete the node (I didn't test this myself...).
Alternatively delete the file, or the whole lazarus folder - but this will
obviously delete a whole bunch of history and other settings too. This is
for Lazarus 2.0.10, newer versions may be a bit different.

Can you explain, what you have done? I can only fix/work on things, I'm
aware about.

Maybe you have disabled the option "Show headers". Only with this option
enabled you can drag and drop the windows (click on header, hold header
and move window).

I don't remember exactly what i've done in the past.

I  used anchordockingdsgn package for a long time and today i thought:
what happens if i drag "project inspector" for example to another
position ... bad idea(!!)

Things got worse as i tried to restore the initial settings of this
package.

Reinstalled the package, read the wiki ... no success,  but then with
google i found the  mentioned Lazarus forum thread: close all windows
except source editor and then  rearrange all windows.

Would be usefull if there was something like restore default settings?!

I never use such a workaround to rearrange the windows. And thats IMO
the problem. I know what I have to do to get my layout back, but I don't
know what other people try to do.

> Would be usefull if there was something like restore default settings?!

Yes, this seems a good idea! Can you make a bug report and assign it to me?!

we can add your gitlab account to the info of the converted bugs/notes.

But you need to provide the info.

To map your gitlab user name (or ID) to the
mantis user, we ask that you file an issue in the mantis project of the

Subject: [Lazarus] .mo files not working in multi language
Message-ID: <23503888-b1a9-67fd-0c73-4573650e40fd@web.de>

Hi!

sorry if I'm wrong here, but I posed my question in the Lazarus forum 
and was redirected here, so I am asking here again...

After some years of pausing Lazarus development, I just started again 
with a small project and the problems I had years ago with MultiLanguage 
- these days, I managed to create a working multilanguage application, 
but when I try to distribute it, I run into problems.

My directory structure looks like this:
project (main folder): project1.exe
!--languages (sub folder): project1.de.mo, project1.en.mo

With this setting, switching from the default (German) to English (en) 
does not work. It seems the .mo files are just being ignored. When I add 
the .PO files to the subfolder, it works.

Can you advise? I just don't want to have to distribute the plain text 
.po files...

Thx!
Dietmar

Make sure you are using at least Lazarus 2.2 RC1.
Make sure you do not have PO and POT files in this subdirectory.

Subject: [Lazarus] Planed work (moving to git) on the weekend 23rd - 26th
Message-ID: <319901a5-a5a8-24ff-d12b-d353a9f1ce4c@mfriebe.de>

On the upcoming weekend (starting Friday night) we will be moving to GitLab.

During this time, there may be interruptions to some of our services.

- SVN will become read-only.
   There may be short intervals were it will not be reachable.
- Mantis/Bugtracker will become readable.
   May be made a forwarder to the GitLab issue tracker.
   May be taken offline. Otherwise there may be short intervals were it 
will not be reachable.

The forum should not be affected and continue to work as normal.

The list of new Url will be posted when the move has been done.

[hr]
Sorry for the rather late notice.

We plan are read-only GitHub mirror.
GitHub advertises that the repro can be read with an svn client too.
So for those needing read only access, there will be an svn link (I have 
not tested how well the GitHub svn wrapper works)
The link will be available from the "clone" menu in GitHub (apparently 
the same link for git and svn)

Actually

read only during the weekend. Once the new URL are released, the 
existing svn will become unavailable (by the end of the month)

one further question:
Is it possible to add the .mo files as resources so that they are being 
hold in the exe file? How could I achieve this?

Put them to RES or LRS file, link this file to your program, then 
extract them at runtime to some directory and load it from there.

Can't you use them from the resource like you can with po-files?

type
  TTransalateFromLazarusResourceResult = (trSuccess,

Yes, this should work the same way for MO files. In this case 
LCLTranslator unit will not help, functions from GetText should be 
called instead.

Thanks for your effort. Can you give an example here how to substitute 
LCLTranslator by GetText?

Subject: [Lazarus] Important update / change for the Lazarus GIT repro
Message-ID: <cd243278-974d-32e6-709f-3f5e7345fa22@mfriebe.de>

*** Concerning the main Lazarus GIT repository

Unfortunately an error had made it into the conversion from SVN to GIT.
The previously published GIT repro would under certain circumstances 
cause issues when history was accessed.
This means we have to do a new conversion from scratch.
    Therefore

*** The existing GIT repository has been taken down.
*** And it will be replaced by a new one.

The new repro will be made available at the same url, once it is ready.

=>    If you have a clone/fork of the old repro:

You can either

* delete your checkout / make a new clone

This will be the simplest way, if you have no local changes

* pull / remote update (for seasoned git users)

This will download the entire new repro too.
You will basically experience that every branch in the repro has been 
force-pushed, and diverged from your old data.
You can then "reset" tracking branches as needed. And/Or rebase local 
feature branches.

=>    Issue reports:


All issue reports will be reset to their last mantis status.
There have been a few new reports. Those will be recovered.
If you added notes/changes to existing reports, we will try to recover 
them, but you may have to redo them.

Further updates will be made available as they emerge.

We are sorry for any inconvenience caused.

Use the released FPC 3.2.2 or get the latest FPC trunk. Now you have an old
