Lazarus 1.2 Release

[zeljko]

I do not know which of them reads here. But I do know, that there recently was an 2.6.4RC. So 2.6.4 is next, and due soon.

IIRC someone mentioned, that hope was to have 2.8. by the end of the year. But I do not know for sure.

I'm already using 2.6.4 ... svn co http://svn.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/tags/release_2_6_4  .. think that releasee builds are in progress.

I found a serious bug, ppl
Lazarus sometimes throws error message dialog when it detects syntax error in source file being edited
It is real
It was present in 1.2 RC 1 and 1.2 RC 2
Too bad I managed to reproduce it several times, but have not reported it yet properly
But next time I encounter it, I definitely will do so
What is difficult about reporting it is that sometimes it happens, but not too often, like once in 10 hours of work
Present both on Windows and Ubuntu at least

The report will be useful only if the problem can be reproduced or if you provide a debugger backtrace.
I suggest you run Lazarus under a debugger, then you get a backtrace from the error and can make a useful report.

Well, I just got "lucky" and reproduced it again right now
Take a look if interested: http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=25826
I provided backtrace as well

Unfortunately, however, I can't find the files for Mac OS X PowerPC. Are they still concealed at SourceForge?

I don't know about the disk images, but i am working on the fink packages. I will update fpc to 2.6.4 and lazarus to 1.2. For all system higher than 10.5, Aqua(carbon) for powerpc and i386 and gtk2 for X86_64, but give me some days.

MiSchi.

@ Martin_fr
which gdb shows nothing

[Martin_fr]

Which distro are you using?

If gdb is not installed by default, then you should be able to install it from the app center (or whatever it is called on your distro).

@ Martin_fr

I'm using Debian Wheezy 64 bit, now I have installed gdb and Lazarus works fine without error message at starting, then I disabled debugger in options, I always select (None) in debugger, I don't like to use it

Thank you

Thanks Lazarus team for all the effort, some days ago we hope this new version, I will be installed next to the 1.0.10.

I'm not so happy with L1.2, all my projects crashes.

I use  Anydac 6.09 as databaseconnector.
And even the simple demo projects where anydac is used gives a  Fatal: Internal error 200610054.

For  the moment i go back till 1.14.

Such errors are produced by fpc afaik, so problem is maybe with fpc-2.6.2 in your case.

The error you describe comes from the FPC compiler. What version are you using?

[edwinyzh]

Awesome! Many thanks and I might  use it in the future.

PS, the installer (and previous versions of the installers) are too slow on my Windows 7 (with Intel I5 CPU and 6GB RAM) system, and it also slows down the entire system during it's execution...
