A Pascal Library with Demos

[sysrpl]

I just wanted you guys to know I wrote a landing page for my recently updated Codebot Cross pascal library.

https://www.getlazarus.org/cross/

There's some good information there about how it works and what it does, along with links to demos.

Enjoy

By all accounts that is a very nicely done job.

Thanks for sharing.

Very nice ! And many thanks for sharing.
Few remarks.
1: On FPC trunk, the library does not compile due to the overloaded functions problem.
2: I guess the examples need a dependency on codebot-control/design lpk.

thanks

@DonAlfredo

Can you explain what is the problems with fpc trunk and overloads? I use a pretty much up to date FPC and do not have that problem.

And yes, the design time package is needed if you want to open some of the examples form files in the IDE designers, as the designer time package uses the register component and / or register property and component editor extensions.

Thank you for the feedback.

Edit: I can see your attached screen capture now. I'll check into the problem but I've compiled for Windows with this library recently and didn't have the problem your are highlighting.

[DonAlfredo]

The problem occurs only when compiling for win64.

codebot.interop.windows.gdiplus.pas(11906,45) Error: Can't determine which overloaded function to call
codebot.interop.windows.gdiplus.pas(8215,24) Hint: Found declaration: constructor Create(QWord;QWord);
codebot.interop.windows.gdiplus.pas(8094,24) Hint: Found declaration: constructor Create(LongInt;LongInt;LongInt=`2498570`);

Edit.
For sure this is a compiler problem.
But I guess the best thing to do is a work-around in the sources until a fix is available.

Try this.

1 Open the codebot.lpk package and press the build button. You should get no errors.
2 Open the codebot_controls.lpk package and press the build button. You should get no errors.
3 Open the codebot_controls_design.lpk package and press the build button. You should get no errors.
4 In the codebot_controls_design.lpk package click use -> install, then click yes to rebuild the Lazarus IDE.

If any of the steps fail, try exiting Lazarus, opening it again, and starting over from step 1.
