Download Lastest laraus [Solved]

Just saw a number of new items that I want to use, or look at, that  have been added to the latest beta version of Lazarus.

How do I get the latest that version, and install it?

Sorry if this is covered else where..

Beta? It's been ages since I saw a beta release for Lazarus. Typically there will only be RC before stable release. In short, there's no such beta. There are only releases, fixes and trunk. You might refer to trunk, which is the current bleeding edge development where new features, fixes to old bugs, new bugs and even sometimes build errors may occur. To get it, read http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Getting_Lazarus#Getting_Lazarus_SVN_development_version

Sorry About the Beta Comment.

Downloaded lazarus-ccr-svn-4938 that has the Items I wanted to check out.

But the instructions on how to install it for Windows are not clear.. Do I copy that files to the c:\lazarus directory? then what?

I could not find a "Make" in the lazarus directory.

Sorry if it is a simple answer, but still getting use to lazarus IDE.

If you have some troubles with "make" you can use non-official precompiled Lazarus distro (official distro for mORMot framework ) at:

http://newpascal.org

it contains latest (maybe few days old) pure Lazarus trunk & FPC trunk (with few patches & modifications).

Have you read this:

and this:

Installing Lazarus/FPC from sources is not easy for beginners, but it's worth to learn. Try it, you will be glad once you already know how to do it.

Very good advise!

Downloaded lazarus-ccr-svn-4938 that has the Items I wanted to check out.

So you installed Lazarus 1.6 and have downloaded the "Lazarus Code and Component Repository" and want to check out some of these components. There is no need to install the Lazarus/FPC trunk (the " bleeding edge" one) from sources. You can just copy the complete unzipped lazarus-ccr-svn to a directory (can be under C:\Lazarus) and install the package you want (which resides in the subdirectories).

You can follow the instructions on the wiki-page to install packages:

And how to install it on a mac?

And how to install it on a mac?

It's all in the wiki

  http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Installing_Lazarus_on_MacOS_X.


You could use packages

  http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Installing_Lazarus_on_MacOS_X#Install_Packages_.2F_Released_version

or use fink

  http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Installing_Lazarus_on_MacOS_X#Installation_using_fink.

or even from sources ...

Installing isn't the problem.
But using the debugger is.
I can install Lazarus 1.6 and the rest with ease.
But then the problem starts if you want to use the debugger on Yosemite. It stops everytime you debug.
And if i install it on El Capitan the debugger won't even start.


So how to install this debugger (like GDB) on El Capitan or Yosemite so that it works with Lazarus 1.6 and fpc 3.0.


That is my real question.

Maybe the solution in this post still works:

I will have a try tomorrow and let you know

Yes this still works


I have made a new topic about it here

Hi
Done a search on NewPascal and could not find a section to post issues; could not find an area on there site either.

I installed in Required Folder c:\NewPascal; lazarus starts fine; but not able to add components; when I compile a component I get c:\users\Alfred not found.  My system does not have a user named Alfred.

Does anyone know where to post issues for NewPascal ?
