Uploading all project code for wiki samples in .zip format
ArminLinder:
Hi all,
I wanted to contribute to the wiki and provide a complete code sample (including the lfm files) in zip format. Unfortunately the wiki will let me only upload several graphics file formats, but no zip archives.
Is there a way to provide a complete code sample project?
Thnx, Armin.

AFAIK this is not possible. In my TAChart tutorials I worked around this issue by pasting the code into the wiki article (https://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/TAChart_Tutorial:_Stacked_BarSeries#Source_code). Awful, but at least something...

Maybe, just maybe, have a look at this please -

Hi Davo,
Not sure what you are after :-)
- Advocate to allow an archive format in the forum attachments, or
- Advocate to publish the complete code samples through [your?] git and put a link in the wiki?
- Something else?
I do, at least, see common ground in what we think an Entrepeneur ("Beginner") can expect in 2022 if he does decide to give Lazarus and FPC a try. Hardly a 10 page article teaching how to compile Lazarus and FPC from source is helpful :-). Instead, GUI examples working right out of the box are expected.
Armin.

Awful, indeed. I also thought about ignoring the GUI/Object Inspector and assign all properties in code. Maybe this would [for my rather short code samples] be a better way to deal with the problem than delivering resource files.
