Hi Lazarus list,

$ mkdir lazarus_0.9.30
$ svn co http://svn.freepascal.org/svn/lazarus/branches/fixes_0_9_30/
lazarus_0.9.30
$ cd lazarus_0_9_30
$ mv lazarus lazarus.old
$ make clean all
$ ./lazarus &

works fine.

I strongly suggest to the maintainer of fixes_0_9_30 to rename the lazarus folder to lazarus.old. This avoid the conflict with the lazarus binary file which is created with the "make clean all" command.

Best Regards,
pew

Why has the maintainer to do that? Can't you do that yourself? How can the maintainer do that?

Vincent

to prevent the apparent conflict that is there??

Can't you do that yourself?

if and when one figures out what the problems is, they probably could...

How can the maintainer do that?

it would seem that they would change it in the svn tree if i've read the given list of commands correctly...

Exactly.

I am still learning the svn commands

We need the svn command to rename the folder lazarus to lazarus.old

Please read this page

http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.5/svn.ref.svn.c.move.html

and work out what the command is to rename the folder lazarus to lazarus.old on

http://svn.freepascal.org/svn/lazarus/branches/fixes_0_9_30/lazarus (folder)

needs to be renamed to

http://svn.freepascal.org/svn/lazarus/branches/fixes_0_9_30/lazarus.old

I am still learning the svn commands

That is my problem indeed, I don't see the problem. What is the problem you want to solve?

There is no lazarus folder in svn, it gets the folder name from the svn checkout command which happens on the client.

Hi Lazarus list, $ mkdir lazarus_0.9.30

Unnecessary step.

What? You check it out into lazarus_0.9.30, then cd into lazarus_0_9_30?

$ mv lazarus lazarus.old

There is no "lazarus" file or directory in svn:

hcv at hcv-laptop:~$ svn ls
http://svn.freepascal.org/svn/lazarus/branches/fixes_0_9_30/ | grep lazarus
lazarus.app/

ahhh, yes... now i see what the (supposed) problem is... but since an executable and a directory are quite different, there should be no problem...

i suspect that pew was expecting the svn code to end up directly in his fixes_0_9_30 directory instead of in a directory lazarus under it...

True.

Henry, what's wrong with that? The checkout created a directory, you need to CD into the directory after the checkout, so you can compile Lazarus.

> $ mv lazarus lazarus.old There is no "lazarus" file or directory in svn:

True, there is no 'lazarus' executable yet, and definitely no executable in the repository.

Hi Vincent,

As an interim, please document these steps as a work around:

$ mkdir lazarus_0.9.30
$ svn co http://svn.freepascal.org/svn/lazarus/branches/fixes_0_9_30/
lazarus_0.9.30
$ cd lazarus_0_9_30
$ mv -t lazarus lazarus.old
$ make clean all
$ ./lazarus &

works fine.

Thanks.

To be quite honest I am now more interested in using Java and/or JavaScript for my cross-platform games development and I will pursue porting my existing Delphi and Lazarus games applications to Java/Javascript.

He created "lazarus_0.9.30", but changed into "lazarus_0_9_30" (note: "." "_"). Might be a typo though.

I missed that. But yes, probably a typo. :)

Heh, if it's the _same_ directory, as Sven pointed out. Since he's repeated those commands now, and not fixed the typo, I'm going to assume that this is his problem.

Henry

The requested URL /svn/lazarus/branches/fixes_0_9_30/lazarus was not found on this server.

The repo browser does not list that directory, that's why you cannot check it out - and why it cannot be renamed as well.

Use /svn/lazarus/branches/fixes_0_9_30 instead.

// typo corrected below
$ mkdir lazarus_0_9_30
// typo corrected below
$ svn co http://svn.freepascal.org/svn/lazarus/branches/fixes_0_9_30/
 lazarus_0_9_30
// change directory
$ cd lazarus_0_9_30
// the next step is required because there exists a directory called lazarus
$ mv lazarus lazarus.old
// and this step creates the binary file "lazarus"
$ make clean all
// this step runs the binary file create with the last step
$ ./lazarus &

works fine.

Well the svn command given will create dir lazarus_0.9.30 and NOT lazarus_0_9_30...
Hence it is not possible to cd into the not created directory. Recheck the command that was given in the post.
