Thanks for this! But nobody use Lazarus on MacOSX?You might try Lazarus-qt4. I have packaged it as fink package. Contrary to carbon it is even 64-bit. Although it is ugly as it could be, but lazarus-gtk2 is second option.
Scrollbox functionality is completed broken (under Carbon allways visible BOTH scrollbars). Under Cocoa scrollbox don't do anything (ScrollBy). http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=30910
Even Lazarus IDE have issues with this (in editor, in project options) :'(
/home/userxy/tmp/project1: Exit code 256, Fehler: 1
project1.lpr(20,1) Error: Error while linking
Lazarus-1.6.4-amd64 for Linux Debian-8.2 with fpc 3.0.2 install ok, but, compile and running find "error while linking", compile stop.Same error on the clean Linuxmint 64 Rosa
lazarus-1.6.4-fpc-3.0.0-win64.exeshould be
lazarus-1.6.4-fpc-3.0.2-win64.exeand so on.
it did not work for debian 8 anymore (near compiling)....I'm under Debian 8 (Jessie) x64 and both Lazarus 1.6.2 and 1.6.4 work for me.
What is the official repo for FPC 3.0.2?
What is the official repo for FPC 3.0.2?
The .tar standalone installers are the official FPC distribution. Distribution packages are 3rd party, though we do try to keep a copy of the package info (like .spec's in Fedora's case) in case a maintainer stops.
While rebuilding the IDE I got an ambiguous "error while linking", however, I quickly solved it by searching this forum.
Thanks, especially for the trailing null fix. What a relief.Heh, that opened another can of worms as we know.
Error while linking ... Usually a clean build solves all such problems.
Otherwise see the FAQ.

GTK2 devel or some other package is not installed.
Enterprises pretend like Pascal is a forgotten language, and Oberon does not exist at all. But who cares about the enterprises. The crippled languages they offer (Java, C#) are not even able to compile into native machine code. Those virtual machines do not have any scientific value. Excuse me, but we won't write any code for imaginary machines.
If we also consider the fact that C++ is a systems-programming language, we can easily realize that we don't have any other choice than Pascal for professional software development. Object Pascal is the only programming language in the world!
Are you a troll or is there something... wrong... with you?I don't think anyone here cares one bit what you think, so let it go.
As it is to find in forum - "a lot" of people do not quickly solve this problem... - maybe you could quickly help... :)
Well... I've tried it again and it won't work as it did a few days ago :-[ Maybe, I've missed something, sorry...
You could try
Tools->Rescan FPC Source Directory
I built a 64bit version of Lazarus 1.6.4 - FPC 3.0.2 using fpcupdeluxe, and when I do Clean and Build IDE it takes forever. I usually have to abort the compilation and restart it.
And then from then on when I start to compile project it apparently goes back to rebuilding the packages it did not complete before I aborted the rebuild.
Any ideas why this could happening? I could
Since version 1.6 (not sure which version, specifically), the file .po file generated for the internationalization (enabling i18n to project), no longer contains the labels of the columns (TGridColumnTitle.Caption) so it is not possible to internationalize the project.
How do I report this malfunction to the team?
Strange - TGridColumnTitle.Caption is of type TCaption and should work just fine. Report to mantis.freepascal.org (http://mantis.freepascal.org) with a simple demo application. Thanks.Many thanks for the link. I'm going to write immediately explaining the problem.

Expect 1.8 soon :)
How soon?
Can't it go into fixes?
I installed 1.6.4 and it appeared to be working. I then installed AncorDocking and it lost the Run and Switch to Form icons. By View I tried to find those tools, but I did not see anything that looked like them. I selected something that might be right and the installation crashed.Try with clean configuration. Lazarus 1.6.4 works for many people. It apparently does not have so serious bugs.

Has anyone else had problems with critical sections, specificly EnterCriticalSection and LeaveCriticalSection, blowing up when running on Mac and Lazarus 1.6.4?
I would like to ask if there is any solution to the HiDPI problem (like in a MacBook Pro Retina) and Lazarus.Yes there is but you have to switch to Lazarus trunk or wait for Lazarus 1.8(it's just around the corner).
Probably because 1.6.4 comes with fpc 3.0Actually it comes with FPC 3.0.2 which indeed had many changes compared to FPC 3.0.
Just playing around with C:\lazarus\examples\ ...I fixed it in r54833 (trunk). It will be backported to 1.8, too.
dbeditmask - exception on first start .. :)
.. will be backported to 1.8, too.How far away is 1.8 ?
How far away is 1.8 ?Not decided yet. During the summer depending on how many RCs are needed.
Okay, this gives me some time .. :)How far away is 1.8 ?Not decided yet. During the summer depending on how many RCs are needed.
I recommend the fixes_1_8 branch already now for people who have problems with earlier versions.
The step from 1.4 to 1.6 was a large one for me because of the new UTF-8 mode.The Unicode change with FPC 3 broke some old code which is unusual.
Will there be big changes from 1.6 to 1.8, compared to this ?
I believe your code works with 1.8 as is. The IDE is improved, too. I dare to say it is safe to switch! Just try yourself.This is good news ! Thanks !

That sounds tempting. What changes have been made to the IDE for 1.8?At least there is the new menu designer and the online package manager by GetMem is included.
thanks to the best team ever ;D i saw many developers like me will be very happy if lazarus support midi formsmidi forms? any link to explain the concept?
