Can't find unit winsvc

[olger901]

Hello all,

I got some really simple delphi apps that I tried to compile with lazarus, however when I compile them I get the error:

blaat.pas (1,1) Fatal: Can't find unit WinSvc

what could I be doing wrong?

Where doe the unit WinSvc come from ? (doesn't sound like a "simple" app)

[olger901]

well I was writing a service manager using Delphi until my trial expired, so now I am trying to do so using lazarus

So you need to write a winsvc unit too, but maybe packages/extra/winunits/jwawinsvc.pas, from the fpcsrc directory can be used too? (I don't know what winsvc contains, but the jedi unit seems to be about services too.) If this is the case, just replace winsvc by jwawinsvc in your source code.
