Hello, FPC developers' list

Lazarus is switched to use fcl-res already and some lazarus/fpc users have troubles with their old/new projects.

I'm trying to figure out myself what are the problems in real but I will not refuse fpc developers help:

Best regards,
Paul Ishenin.

I confirm that if lazarus project has spaces in the path then fpc fails to compile:

/usr/bin/ppc386 -B -MObjFPC -Scghi -O1 -gl -WG -vewnhi -l "-Fi/home/paul/Development/laztest/path with spaces/lib/i386-linux/" -Fu/home/paul/Development/lazarus/lcl/units/i386-linux/ -Fu/home/paul/Development/lazarus/lcl/units/i386-linux/gtk2/ -Fu/home/paul/Development/lazarus/packager/units/i386-linux/ "-Fu/home/paul/Development/laztest/path with spaces/" -Fu.

When I compile from the console (not lazarus) with -vd I see:

i see successful resource compilation by fpcres.

Together with Dmitry we found the solution. Patch is attached.

Maybe StringToPPChar should be fixed instead?

thanks,
