Hi

I have small ask

why win32.inc, objpas.inc, thread.inc, dynlibs.inc are in RTL\WIN32

for me thea should be in RTL\WIN32\WININC or other include directory

The same is in RTL\INC, here should be only *.inc files (I think so)

Darek

WININC contains only include files of the windows unit.

The same is in RTL\INC, here should be only *.inc files (I think so)

This is to keep directory count low. rtl/inc contains the files which are common to all oses and processors.

and what about RTL\OBJPAS and RTL\OBJPAS\CLASSES

Object Pascal units like sysutils or classes :)

and RTL\OBJPAS\CLASSES

The sysutils and classes units are huge so they are put into separate directories.

One more
is it possible change name of RTL\OBJPAS\CLASSES\ACTION.INC this has the same like in lazarus LCL\INCLUDE\ACTION.INC

some times it's complicate live

change name in RTL is better
name of classes: tBasicActionLink -> name of file ACTIONL.INC

in Lazarus is TAction

Darek

PS. Thx for reply for my ask.

Compile the RTL with RELEASE=1 added to the make command line. That will add -Ur. The -Ur sets the unit to not be recompiled also when changed sources are found.

Hi
I know how to avoid this, but some times this cause trouble (for example when I want to compile RTL by command line, or when I search file , ect)

Darek

When we start doing such requests where do we end? Next candidates are file.inc and text.inc...

IMHO, the LCL file should be renamed in LclAction.inc to avoid conflicts. So I send this mail also to the lazarus list.

Darek,

I am not connected to the Free Pascal team so I feel free to ask you to stop wasting their time with a lot of trivial questions.

They have better things to do than answer them.

Thank you,

If we don't have tme/don't like to answer a question we simply don't do :) Asking a lot helps us often to think about our own position and to improve things, so feel free to do it :)

I try to download last 1.9 sources but cannot access FPC archives via FTP, your server (ftp://ftp.freepascal.org) seems to be down. What is happened with it?
