Is there a chance to make Lazarus 1.8 build natively with KControls? I don't understand the details, but I know how to patch it .. :)

With current https://bitbucket.org/tkweb/kcontrols/get/tip.zip our project https://github.com/tomboy-notes/tomboy-ng fails to compile with lazbuild 1.8.0RC5: tkweb-kcontrols-e4ec3f5e4b06/source/kgrids.pas(2945,15) Error: (3058) There is no method in an ancestor class to be overridden: "DoAutoAdjustLayout(const TLayoutAdjustmentPolicy;const Double;const Double;const Boolean); http://www.tkweb.eu/en/delphicomp/kcontrols.html?action=commentaddform&par=5a14825e01662 https://bitbucket.org/tkweb/kcontrols/commits/9fab2d710a8c (commented in trunk)

DoAutoAdjustLayout exists in 1.8. Please provide some small example demonstrating the problem.

Thanks for looking into this!

As code is a moving target, it's good to have tests. It looks like the fix has been backported meanwhile. Anyway I attach my test scripts, please excuse that I cannot provide a smaller example.

Just during writing the test script I saw

$ ././test_kcontrols_1.7.sh
kcontrols/source/kmemortf.pas(4030,10) Error: (5000) Identifier not
found "UTF8Copy"

Tk recommends: "Check if LazUTF8.pas has this function. If not then you must update to newer Lazarus version (I recommend using the trunk via fpcupdeluxe)."

I just redownloaded the archive for KControls 1.7 and it magically works. I don't understand it, but it's fine. No changes to Lazarus 1.8RC5 needed.

$ ././test_kcontrols_trunk.sh
Test for KControls trunk succeeded.

The list of changes since the last release is immense and I am sure after two years work the author will be happy to release a new version known to work with upcoming Lazarus 1.8.
$ diff -r kcontrols_17 kcontrols_trunk|less
