Hi,

Since revision 490, FreeBSD has been certified as a supported platform of fpGUI! :)

I've used FPC 2.2.0 under DesktopBSD v1.6 (which is derived from FreeBSD 6). I've compiled all the example and prototype projects and tested each one individually. Everything works exactly like under Linux and Windows.

As a side note... I'm also getting ready for the next fpGUI release. A few minor fixes are all that is left. fpGUI has had some major improvements and fixes added since the previous v0.5 release. The next release should be a good one!

Regards,
- Graeme -

I've been waiting to compile Lazarus IDE using fpGUI. If it happens, I'll be confidently using fpGUI. ;)

Congratulations and thanks for the great work of you (and your team). :)

No you can't. At this time fpGUI is a stand-alone GUI toolkit for the Free Pascal Compiler. You can create GUI applications using Lazurus as your IDE (editor only) or any other editor for that matter and use fpGUI's UI Designer (visual form designer). This will give you fpGUI based applications - nothing to do with the Lazarus LCL.

To actually compile Lazarus with the fpGUI toolkit, we need to first create a LCL-fpGUI widgetset, like the others that exist (Win32, Qt, GTK etc). The LCL-fpGUI that is currently in Lazarus is just a skeleton widgetset and has about 3 components working (TForm, TButton and TLabel) and they aren't complete either. It was simply an exercise to see what would be required to make fpGUI a supported toolkit for the LCL. There are plans to complete the LCL-fpGUI widgetset, but that is still months away.

Regards,
