Not designtime, but runtime you can simply set a property using values
from {$I http://www.freepascal.org/docs-html/prog/progsu41.html

label1.caption:='{$i %FPCVERSION%} {$i %date%} {$i %time%}';

note though that because FPC can build incremental that means the
buildtime FOR THAT MODULE! If you routine do a full build for a real
release, that is not a problem though.

See the constants in unit LCLVersion, these will give you LCL (that is
Lazarus) version.
I do not know how to get svn revision number, but, as we can see it is
in Lazarus about box, apparently there is a way to add svn revision as
well.

It comes from ide\revision.inc:

Code: Text  [Select][+][-]window.onload = function(){var x1 =
document.getElementById("main_content_section"); if (x1) { var x =
document.getElementsByClassName("geshi");for (var i = 0; i // Created
by Svn2RevisionIncconst RevisionStr = '41139';

I think freeman35 is asking for fpc svn revision number and build
date, not Lazarus information, which is already shown.
The fpc build (compile) date is available in the plethora of data
under View->IDE Internals, but I don't see there the fpc svn revision
number, though I might have missed it.

AFAIK fpc svn revision number can be included and be shown with the
-iW switch only if you build fpc from svn and do a "make revision" in
the compiler dir before the usual "make all install ... etc" in the
top dir.

Yse I talk about "fpc svn revision number and build date"  lazarus was
there and just fpc version on there 2.7.1 etc.
I checked fp IDE about box, NO svn revision info too
Why I need, I actually update svn version in 1-2 days. some bugs been
and I need to know versions. best easy way look at to lazarus about
form. Lazarus svnrevision number is there but just fpc version is
write there (2.7.1)
@howardpc Yes fpc compiled date and other info there ,but no fpc svn
revision number anywhere
This is my suggestion, this fpc info add to lazarus about form too

Swipe to copy info from about form to keyboard buffer would be useful.
