FPC source and Lazarus
« on: February 18, 2005, 09:14:54 pm »
I'm trying to improve my understanding of Lazarus.  Why does Lazarus need the FPC source?  I understand the need for the LCL source etc by why the FPC source?  Thanks.

FPC source and Lazarus

There are a lot of possibilities. One of them:
It uses the source to determine what properties for example a TComponent has, for example for code completion. Having the source of TControl and that it is derived from TComponent, is not enough, therefore you need to look at the declaration of TComponent.
