Updating SVN downloaded packages in Lazarus?
« on: December 09, 2014, 12:33:35 am »
Sorry if this is a basic question, but say I download a component using SVN (e.g. RichMemo), then I install the component into Lazarus and everything is fine. Then some weeks later I come back and use SVN Update to update the component directory.

Do I need to recompile the IDE to obtain the new changes, or delete and reinstall the component, or do anything else to ensure I have the latest component in my IDE?

(sorry, I may have put this in the wrong forum)

Recompile the IDE, the compiler can detect changes in the source and will recompile automatically all needed units.
