I only ever use 'make'. I never use ppc386 directly. I only did so a few minutes ago to test Shane's statement with regards to the Access Violation.

The makefiles place the units in separate dirs,

Correct.

use them from those dirs and will only clean those dirs.

Negative. I did a 'make clean' and it dit NOT remove any of the .o or .ppu from the various 'units' directories. I had to manually remove those files to clean those directories. The 'make clean' should remove them.

If that doesn't work, please let me know which units couldn't be found.

As stated above the 'make clean' doesn't do a complete clean correctly.

As to the lazarus build itself. I have manually cleaned and made sure that no .o .ppu files exist in the Lazarus tree. Then from the IDE's directory I do a 'make'.

This call to 'make' errors with unit 'Interfacebase' not fould. I check and the .o and .ppu do exist. :-\

I call 'make' again. This time it goes until it errors with unit 'Controls' not found.

'Make' again errors with unit 'Forms' not found.

'Make' again errors with unit 'StdCtrls' not found.

'Make again and this time Lazarus is built.

The only significant difference is the fact that I am using a compiler cycled from the main branch and not from the fixed branch. However this shouldn't make a difference. (at least I don't think so).

I'll recheck that tonight.

I guess you ppl all develop under linux. It would be possible to create a rpm file from the current 1.0.5 CVS tree and give it version 1.0.5.laz1. Then you can specify that version as the required compiler

you wrote

Did you commit any changes in gtkinc files? Shane

Nope, I was trying to fix the capture code but haven't found where is goes wrong. It seems that wrong captures are set to (none ?) gtk widgets so gtk doesn't do any capture or so

Marc

You don't need that.

Yesterday I was debugging/modifying some gtkInc files and every modification I made directly compiled with make lcl, a result I never have seen before.

I used a 1.0.5 compiler whith the latest changes, I changed and committed the new makefiles.

Compiling Lazarus with ppc directly gives al kinds of unreproducable problems (on different machines).

I just tried it that way as a test and I can build Lazarus but it still just gives me an Access Violation and nothing more.

However that doesn't address my question about the need for recompiles with make.

Sorry, I thought I did, but no you don't need to recompile.
