Hi,

The documentation has been re-generated and put on the website. the fpc/dist/2.4.0/docs directory on the FTP server contains also a version of the latest docs.

They have been re-generated from version 2.4.0.

Reason for the update is the complete documentation of the DB unit: it has been finished, and adds roughly 200 pages (in PDF) to the documentation. I thought that was worth an update.

It may take a while before the mirrors catch up.

Michael.

Because till you pointed it out to me, I didn't know the LCL documentation was there.

Thanks Michael. I gather that's just the FCL class documentation, and not the Language Reference Guide?

I think Marco did some changes to the language reference guide. (I saw some mantis "closed" reports flying by) if so, his changes are included in the build.

Why, were you expecting some changes ?

Not too important or urgent, but I know I sumitted some Language Ref changes to Mantis, and they are not yet in the latest docs.

Anyway, I first need to complete the Lang Ref doc for INF, then I'll get the latest docs from SVN and update the INF doc were needed.

PS:
I can't remember all the lang ref changes I submitted, but I do remember one of them was about UnicodeString type - currently not mentioned in the ref document.

They were minor spelling fixes from Graeme iirc, but I though they were after the regen of the docs.

Btw, this week I'll try to fix the scripts so that the reference guide is properly linked again. I found the reason for the random exceptions, so now I can debug reasonably again.

I only fixed spelling and formatting issues, not content.

Thanks Marco, I'll get an update later... strange I never got Mantis status emails.

I can't find it, i tried dl. from website
(ftp://ftp.freepascal.org/pub/fpc/docs-pdf/fcl.pdf), from ftp (ftp://ftp.freepascal.org/pub/fpc/docs-pdf) but there is no change from 2.4.0 original documentation nor dates.

Can you post the file's url? Thanks for the work.

P.S. Sorry if it messup your thread views but i can't find the original message

I forgot about this location, my apologies :/

Please try again with ftp://ftp.freepascal.org/pub/fpc/docs-pdf/fcl.pdf.

Michael.

I'm downloading it now.

Thanks and Good Work!

There is an easy way to have the wiki's of lazarus and fpc saved to my PC? Like an off-line resource?
