Hello,

I would like to point out, in the first place, that I am new at this, but when I found the project, it really interested me a lot. I've been trying to put the Lazarus to work for a long time (in win98 to make the try in Linux thereafter), and I couldn't make it. The problems that arise are the following: I can see the I.D.E., but a message continuously appears in the DOS screen, which says:

"gdk-CRITICAL **:file gdkdraw.c: line 122 (gdk_drawable_unref): assertion 'drawable != NULL' failed."

I'm not positive about this message showing a flaw in the Lazarus concerning graphics properties, ineffective mouse reply and display of the editor, apart from being extremely slow.

I would appreciate your guiding me toward a possible solution to this problem.

Thank you very much.

Rolando.

For now you can ignore this message. Some (or should I say most) of the routines arent finihed yet.

Unfortunately the windows version has a problem at this moment which results in a continuous redrawing. It appears that there is a difference in behaviour between the win32 and the Linux GTK implementation. Since most of the developmnet is done on Linux this error is hard to track down.

I would appreciate your guiding me toward a possible solution to this problem.

I would suggest to try the Linux version.
