trouble with packages

I have created a package called "sarala_tools" which I'm using in a 
couple projects. I've found it fun, interesting, and incredibly useful 
to create packages.

All was working great for a while, but now one of my projects has 
decided that it cannot find one of the units that is part of the 
sarala_tools package. I can compile the package just fine from 
the "open loaded package" > "package sarala_tools" window.

When I create a new project that uses the package I don't see such a 
problem.

I'm really not sure how to go about fixing my project. Any tips?

Thanks,
David

Re: QT binding works!

David,

I believe that refers to Environment | Options, then on the Environment Files tab, look for "Lazarus directory".

Thanks.

Re: trouble with packages

David,

Can you right click in the Message window (at bottom) and copy all messages to the clipboard, then send the
last few lines here. I'm curious to see whether it's a checksum issue that I've been wrestling with.

Thanks.

Can you open the package and double click on the unit in question in
that package window? Does it find it and open correctly in the IDE? I
often found that I might have manually renamed a unit (Linux case
sensitive can cause unexpected results). The package compiles fine, but
I experienced the same issues as you. Then when I tried to open that
unit, package says it cannot find it. It seems the old .ppu file fooled
the package for a long while.

Clear you unit output directory by deleting all *.ppu, *.o and *.a files
and recompile the package - it should then complain if it can't find a unit.

Old *.ppu files can be a real evil sometimes.

Other than that, I fully agree with you about Packages. To me, they are
the single most handy feature in Lazarus IDE!

Very handy, but I have some packages installed in lazarus 0.9.26 and
now I would like to install 0.9.28.2.
How can I keep the packages? I mean, is it possible to upgrade lazarus
rather then reinstall?
When I moved from 0.9.24 to 0.9.26 I had to find again on internet all
the packages I used to have and reinstall :-(

My fast observations & qt fixes from last night:
1.I've fixed crash in getRegionType function (qt) which happens when someone 
create region with negative width or height.

2.Orpheus spinner control (and maybe others) crashed under qt because of 
MyMisc.ptInRegion() implementation.

function PtInRegion(RGN: HRGN; X, Y: Integer) : Boolean;
{$IFDEF MSWINDOWS}
begin
  Result := Windows.PtInRegion(RGN, X, Y);
{$ELSE}
var
  ARect : TRect;
  APt   : TPoint;
begin
  GetRgnBox(RGN, @ARect);
  APt.X := X;

I'll check it today.

hm..I don't agree with you at all.IDE works ok, our commercial apps works ok 
(all ported from K3/D7) + 3rd party components (FastReports, TMS grids 
etc...) and we don't have such problems.When you say that something works ok 
on Carbon, but crashes under win32 or gtk2 then it doesn't deserve to blame

In v0.9.28.3 (svn) the Compiler Options dialog is broken


http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=15226

The last two tabs/options:  "Inherited" and "Compilation" doesn't work
correctly.

I don't know if the same applies in Trunk, I only updated to 0.9.28.3
(svn) now and tested that.

I install external 3rdParty packages (not included with Lazarus) in a
separate folder from the Lazarus directory. eg:

 /opt/lazarus/              <-- lazarus IDE, LCL, source
 /opt/lazarus-addons/       <-- external addons

That way I can trash, reinstall, upgrade /opt/lazarus/ and my 3rdParty
addons stay untouched.
