Is Lazarus Linux Application ?

[bee]

About your HowTo posts, I found them a little bit "unusual" since you need to run Lazarus (always?) as root. You seemed to be improvising a bit there. If it works then good for you then.

There's something I don't understand, Mr./Mrs. sternas. Your profile says you joined to the Lazarus forums in 2004. In all these four years, What did you do? I mean, you ask that "all this MultiOS Story is Fake". If you were using Lazarus from 2004 you must know about it.

By the way, I agree that Mr. bee is a bit rude sometimes, but his last post is a kind one so I think your last one is out of place.

Well, just changing some user permissions (go+x may be?) should fix this, shouldn't it?

Hahaha... I won't be rude if he asked a little bit polite. I'm not that bad. I'm just easily intrigued by FUD, especially about FPC and Lazarus.

It should, or sort of. FPC and Lazarus has provided good build scripts for us so you shouldn't need to do that. Simply "make clean" then "make all" then "sudo make install" from within the svn folder, then they're all set. Ok, I make a bit simplification here, but you should know what I mean. Just read the wikis, they're all there! Why don't just people read the provided wiki, or google a bit, instead of spreading FUD? I don't understand. Maybe professionals don't know how to use wiki?

Anyway, he had solved his problem using his own way. Let's wish him luck.

Dear Sir (Martinez)
<<There's something I don't understand, Mr./Mrs. sternas. Your profile says you joined to the Lazarus forums in 2004. In all these four years, What did you do? I mean, you ask that "all this MultiOS Story is Fake". If you were using Lazarus from 2004 you must know about it. >>

That's right sir,
BUT, all these years I see a forum with no <<essential>> posts.
With my post, (sorry) but I want to see the quality (the level) of this forum.
I support Freepascal and lazarus but WE must go further and not with this kind of forum level.

Do you agree sir?

Dear Sir (bee)

Execute <<sudo nautilus>> to a terminal
and change user permissions to /tmp folder
or
delete all project files to /tmp folder
OK.

@sternas:
Hey, I'm not the one who had problem with FPC/Laz installation. I had them all set on my development machine (windows, linux, and mac). I don't need to open terminal nor become root to run Lazarus on Linux. Synaptic even provide shortcut on its start menu inside programming section. Yes, you can do it all by yourself manually. But, with current modern Linux distros, it should be lot easier and more user friendly.

Oh..
CAN YOU POST A PHOTO OF YOUR Mutli-OS <<development machine>> SIR ?
Only ONE photo with Lazarus SVN and Freepascal SVN (for Vista 64 for sample)?

Sorry, I don't use windows vista. I'm still on XP.

Here is on Mac OS X... http://beeography.files.wordpress.com/2008/04/laz-924-maci386.jpg
Here is on Ubuntu Gutsy... http://beeography.files.wordpress.com/2007/09/laz-0922-gtk2-ubuntu.png

Satisfied?

BTW, you don't need to SHOUT for asking something!

[Sternas Stefanos]

Your Mac version is 0.9.24.
Your Ubuntu version is 0.9.22 (how old is this version ?)
Your Windows (Oh my God) is 0.9.18 (how old is this Version?)
But, none of your photos is SVN version, Only installation... ?

Oh... to our lesson now.

Thanks for the <<Dogfight>> Sir (lee)

Wrong! It's 0.9.24.1, the fixes version of 0.9.24. Learn to look?! It's available on SVN.

Yes, they are old. I'm too lazy to capture my latest Lazarus. I just informed you my old Lazarus capture. Lesson to learn (for you?)... the SVN is available since ages and there are SVN versions for stable releases as well. I use SVN for three versions of each FPC and Lazarus version: stable (from tags), fix (from branches), and devel (from trunk), and install them altogether.

I doubt you understand my language, but I once posted about my experience working with FPC/Lazarus SVN, in my blog here. Oh wait, it's an old post too! You must think that it's not valid either, right? I advertise a lot about FPC/Lazarus to Delphi/Pascal developers community in my country. That's why I wrote about FPC/Laz in my blog mostly using my native language, to attract other Delphi/Pascal developers fellows in my country to FPC/Laz as cross platform pascal dev-tool. So, I don't need to prove to you that I do use SVN.

BTW... I'm glad to know you (finally) able to install Lazarus. I hope now you know that multi OS development using FPC/Laz is not fake! I also hope you don't spread that FUD again.

Good luck.
