Hi All,

When installing lNet package:

C:\prog\lazarus\lnet\lib\lwebserver.pp(645,53) Error: absolute can only
be associated with a var or const

But it *is* a var:

var
   lServerSocket: TLHTTPServerSocket absolute FSocket;

??

Kind regerds,
John

If FSocket is a member variable of a class it is not a variable.

You can only use absolute for variables which address is known on forehand.

FWIW, i use lNet trunk and is compiled / installed fine in lazarus trunk.

regards,

Hmmm,
There was an old lNet version lying around...
Allthough I selected the trunk version, the old sourcefiles where used.

Weird that I could not delete the directory where the old version was, even after closing Lazarus and checking in taskmanager that there was no lazarus running.. had to restart the machine to get rid of this dir.

It now installs ok. However, weird again, upon rebuilding lazarus.exe grew from abt 13 MB to 126 MB... but thats another issue I guess..

tnx
John

That's the debug info... add "-Xs" or "-Xg" to the additional options for compiling the IDE (at least I hope that this works ^^).

-Xs removes the debug infos
-Xg puts the debug infos in an external file

Well, if you use TortoiseSVN, sometimes the TSVNCache service lock-out the dir for processing.

Tried -Xs, -dXs in the options box, tried to remove "debug" and "verbose" from "edit defines", but still 126 MB... The Help button takes me to the Wiki, where it says that I can enter options in the options-box... right...

Can someone point me to the right syntax?

I do have TurtoiseSVN set up, but only on the lazarus-dir, not on the the lNet package directory. Sure Turtoise does not lock folders where no svn-check is setup?

Try -g- -Xs (at least that's what I use on the command line).

Try -g- -Xs (at least that's what I use on the command line). Henry

Thanks Henry, that did the job! Back to 13 MB again... :-)
