Lazarus Ide
lazarus / 1-Linux

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Can someone help a noob?

I've new to freebsd and I've installed FreePascal on it.  No offense
but the ide is unusable, it ignores the mouse and strange characters
show up on the display.  (Of course it might be that I haven't
configured it properly for KDE.)

The pics of the Lazarus Ide look GREAT and I can't wait to try it!
 What do I need to download and how do I install it?

Also - I compiled a cgi Hello, world app in freebsd and it's almost
80k.  The same app compiled using FreePascal under Bloodshed'd ide in
Win98 is 17k.  Any thoughts?  I compiled it w/o debug info on both
platforms.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Please forgive my ignorance, I'm trying to kiss the evil empire
goodbye after 20 years.  Everything is new and strange.

I managed to dowload Lazarus via cvs.  It appears that I need to
compile it.  Do I just type 'make' while in the directory?  I
downloaded it to /usr/local/bin/lazarus, I hope that's an appropriate
place to put it.

Place it where you like, however something like .../src/... seems more
logic :-)

Issuing make should do the trick, the the FAQ section for more details

----------------------------------------------------------------------
jpartridge · 2003-09-02 10:47

Following the instructions in the faq I ran make while in the lazarus
directory and got these error messages:


makefile line 10 needs an operator
makefile line 12 needs an operator
unknown modifier '/'           <- quite a few times
error expanding embedded variable


Any help would sure be appreciated.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
jpartridge · 2003-09-02 11:23

Thanks for responding Marc.  /usr/scr it is.  

I moved the files to scr and ran make again and doh, apparently I left
a few lines out the errors list.

makefile line 7: missing dependancy operator
unknown modifier ','
unknown modifier ','
makefile line 10: need an operator
makefile line 12: need an operator
unknown modifier '/' <- many times
error expanding embedded variable

I am no FreeBSD user and I don't know if it is obvious to you, but
according to Marco's BuildFaq at www.stack.nl/~marcov/buildfaq.pdf you
should use gmake as make executable. You didn't mention using gmake.

Did you use that or just plain make?

gmake is the gnu make utility. I don't know if it is installed on your
system. If it is try gmake instead of make in the lazarus source
directory.

From the BuildFaq:
Quote*BSD: Uses a pmake variant which is slightly different. The
makefile template used by FPC isn’t compatible with pmake at this
moment. (hint, hint) GNU make is installable from the ports tree,
usually as devel/gmake. Don’t forget to put the bin directory of the
ports-$PREFIX (/usr/local/bin, /usr/pkg/bin etc) into your path, and
substitute all use of make by “gmake”.

Thank you vrs!  I didn't know about the buildfaq.

I'll do it first thing in the morning.

But then I'll have a new problem - tearing myself away so I can go to
work

This is what I get when running gmake.
Any thoughts?
I've tried to find the answer in the faqs but they seem to expect at
least some knowledge (or intelligence)

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Just some thought, hopefully helpful.
glib12 is the glib library part of gtk-1.2.
Do you have gtk 1.2 (and also glib 1.2) installed? On my linux
computer it is called: libglib-1.2.so.0.0.10, with a symlink from
/usr/lib/libglib.so
Looking at glib.pp pascal header file for glib, (assuming freebsd also
has libraries starting with lib and extension so) I supose you need a
file libglib12.so.

Thx for taking the time to look that up Vincent.

Yes, I do have the libraries installed (I installed them after getting
a helpful error message from an earlier gmake attempt).

I ran the sysinstall program to make sure and glib-1.2.10_8 and
gtk-1.2.10_9 are installed.
Here's what I found looking for libglib files:
Quoteypeast01# find / -name "libglib*"
/usr/local/lib/libglib12.a
/usr/local/lib/libglib12.so
/usr/local/lib/libglib12.so.3
/usr/compat/linux/usr/lib/libglib-1.2.so.0
/usr/compat/linux/usr/lib/libglib-1.2.so.0.0.6


Since I don't yet know how to tell the OS where to put the output from
the various ways to install software I would think it's safe to say
that anything installed should be easy for software to find.  Here's
my path settings:
Quote(/sbin /bin /usr/sbin /usr/bin /usr/games /usr/local/sbin
/usr/local/bin /usr/X11R6/bin /root/bin)

The number of "usage: dirname path" lines when I ran gmake combined
with my being so new to freebsd has you thinking that something is out
of sync directory structure-wise?  I could repartition and reinstall
freebsd if you think that would help.

Thanks again.

Has anyone gotten the Lazarus Ide to run under freebsd?

----------------------------------------------------------------------
vrs · 2003-09-12 06:41

Marco van de Voort has. If you ask your question on the Lazarus list,
he will probably answer you.

Quote from: "jpartridge"Has anyone gotten the Lazarus Ide to run under
freebsd?

Yes... But not untill I manaually hacked link.res file..

After running gmake,  it will produces the following output..
usr/libexec/elf/ld: cannot find -lglib12
lazarus.pp(352) Error: Error while linking
Closing script ./ppas.sh
gmake[1]: *** [lazarus] Error 1
gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/lazarus'
gmake: *** [ide] Error 2

At this point don't give up, you are rpobably only a minute away from
sucess.

In the current direct you will find a file called link.res. At the top
of this fiile is the line like SEARCH_DIR(/usr/lib/)

Add a line

SEARCH_DIR(/usr/local/lib/)

At the top of file link.res is fine. (doesn't really matter)...

You then run ./ppas.sh to re-link the object files.

Enjoy...
