Hi,

I'm make some changes to the EpikTimer so it can be used for LCL and non-LCL based applications. A simple split so I have a runtime only package and a Lazarus design time package.

How do I contribute to EpikTimer? The copy I got is a release version from the Lazarus-CCR sourceforge page.

Regards,
- Graeme -

I added it to subversion:

http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/EpikTimer#Subversion

Please make a patch against svn

Felipe, maybe it is a good idea to move all code from lazarus-ccr CVS to SVN. Can you do that?

Vincent

Yes, sure. Most projects there seam to have no use today, should they be moved too?

dxgettext/ - Gnu Gettext. Don't we already have that already somewhere else? formstorage/ - Stores some properties of a form in xml. Looks deprecated, as LCL already has that
fparchive/ - Undocumented
fpsystools/ - Looks nice, but isn't modifyed in 4 years. I doubt it still compiles without changes.
gtktrayicon/ - That could have helped a long time ago, but is now surely deprecated as we have TTrayIcon =)
jpeg/ - Looks deprecated
kbdata/ - No idea what this is:
http://lazarus-ccr.cvs.sourceforge.net/lazarus-ccr/kbdata/

It's in SVN..??

svn co
https://lazarus-ccr.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/lazarus-ccr/components/epiktimer epiktimer

I'm about to post my patch as well, so if anything is going to move, please wait a bit. :)

Here is my changes. See attached archive (patch file).

Changes:
* etpackage.lpk is now a runtime only package. FCL dependency only, so it can be used in non-LCL applications.
* Added a new package called etpackage_dsgn.lpk which is a designtime only package. LCL, etpackage requirements.
* Component registration has moved out of epiktimer.pas into etpackage_lcl.pas unit.

I hope it's okay....

Regards,

I was also confused by the possibility that epiktimer would be in cvs, but no. EpikTimer was never in cvs, and is now in svn.

Since I want to close the CVS after the move, I think we should move as much as possible.

See
http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Current_conversion_projects#dxGetText Please move.

formstorage/ - Stores some properties of a form in xml. Looks deprecated, as LCL already has that

fparchive/ - Undocumented

Move it.

fpsystools/ - Looks nice, but isn't modifyed in 4 years. I doubt it still compiles without changes.

Move it, somebody may want to work on it.

gtktrayicon/ - That could have helped a long time ago, but is now surely deprecated as we have TTrayIcon =)

You can leave this out.

jpeg/ - Looks deprecated

Yes, deprecated, no need to move.

kbdata/ - No idea what this is: http://lazarus-ccr.cvs.sourceforge.net/lazarus-ccr/kbdata/

A checkin of the old wiki files. No need to move.

Vincent

It was not in SVN, but in CVS, until you asked for it. Now it is in SVN and will keep there. The Lazarus CCR CVS will be closed.

We are moving from CVS to SVN, so make your patch against the SVN version, please. :-)

Ok, I just wanted to review it. Please apply it.

I don't have write access to SVN, so it's up to you. :)
