Title: New project doesn\'t auto-create first form

Entered by: Tony Maro

When creating a new project, the default form it creates is not added to the auto-create forms list, resulting in an application that does nothing...

Title: Missing winapi.pp ???

Entered by: Serg

After downloading snapshot and trying MAKE under winxp I\'m got  \"postscriptprinter.pas(245,62) Fatal: Can\'t find unit WINAPI\"
winapi.inc and winapih.inc are present, but winapi.pp is absent!

Every editor handles symlinks differently.
I would suggest a message, when the IDE detects an already opened link, but others seems to prefer more automatic ways. Ideas?

Mattias

Well, in the fileutil.pp unit (isn't that what it was?) didn't I notice some routines that would extract out symlinks back to the real full path? You could do that on each of the opened editor files and on the error from the compiler to see if they match...

----- Original Message -----

I find it only does this if I'm accessing a unit that I've compiled into the palette. Part may have to do with my symlinks, because I'll sometimes open the file from /home/tony/lazarus/components/custom instead of what Lazarus has set as path which is
/usr/src/lazaruscvs/lazarus/components/custom - so truly it looks just like two separate files.

filectrl.pp.
Just to avoid misunderstandings: I just wanted to know, when the IDE should do the symlink check and what it should do on finding one. Anjuta, moleskine, emacs, ... every editor does it differently.

You could do that on each of the opened editor files and on the error from the compiler to see if they match...

If I understand it correct, you suggest to do a symlink check whenever a file is opened automatically in the editor. Should there be a message or should it automatically go to the already opened file?

Mattias

There should be a message. In the best case, make it configurable. 'Warn when opening symlinked file twice' or something.

Somehow the filenames look different for the IDE.
Is the file on a windows vfat filesystem?

BTW, how can I get the filename on disk in such a case?

Aha, double slash...

Maybe when it saves the settings we could have Lazarus detect this and remove the extra slash at the end of paths? Or is that dangerous in Linux because it might break some other compatibility? I've only been doing Linux programming for less than a year, and I've learned to expect the unexpected...

-Tony

Normally, linux ignores double slashes in paths.
Windows is more difficult in this matter.

I would think just do it automatically, since after the check you can be sure they are one and the same...

-Tony

Has nothing to do with linux.
The IDE normally uses the TrimFilename function to normalize filenames, which is neccessary to compare filenames. This eleminates double slashes, parent dirs '..', current dirs '.' and spaces at start and end of filenames. There was one normalization missing.
But for readability, environment directories are now always appended a slash.

No

Hi, I found the problem, I have: /home/prog/lazarus/ in "enviroment->enviroment options->lazarus directory" I corrected that as: /home/prog/lazarus

thanks
