[Solved] How to install "Generics Collections" in Lazarus 3.2 ?

[jcmontherock]

I found the source at:
https://github.com/maciej-izak/generics.collections/blob/master/Makefile
but there is no "lpk" file to install the package. I seems to me that it was before included in the general installation of Lazarus.

That branch was integrated into FPC years ago, so it should already be in your lazarus.

That looks like a dead repo to me. At least it hasn't been updated in the last 5 years.

Besides, you already have that code in the fpc/3.2.2/source/packages/rtl-generics/src/generics.collections.pas directory. And it has been updated recently.

Edit: @marcov was quicker...

and fcl-generics contains bug fixes. Just do not use that repo unless you are on a very old Lazarus and/or fpc.

I found it in fpc directory. But how do I install it ? It's not by default in version 3.2. It didn't find sparta_generics.

It is just there. There is no need to install it, just use it by declaring it in the unit/program uses list.

Yes it is.

It didn't find sparta_generics.

That is something else.

I'm finding what it happen: package "sparta_generics" was mandatory in project in old Lazarus versions. It's not necessary now. I didn't recompile my application for a long time. I suppress this dependency in project and now it's OK.
Thanks to everybody.
