2.1 Installing Lazarus under Windows:
ToDo: Write me.
Under windows the IDE does not run well. So don't expect too much.
Thx to Joe for this Step-by-step description:
You have to download the lazarus source:
ftp://ftp.freepascal.org/pub/fpc/source/lazarus.zip
Then unzip it to c:\lazarus for example.
You have to install at least fpc1.0.6. It compiles to me and lazarus.exe
works. The path to my fpc is: c:\pp\bin\win32. In this directory you
can find a lot of exe (make, grep, ppc386, and so on).
Open a command line. Start->Run...>command or choose MS-DOS icon.
Type:
cd c:\lazarus
set path=c:\pp\bin\win32;c:\lazarus //of course change the first to
//the path of yours
windres -i lazarus.rc -o lazarus.res
make
If you are lucky then you can type: lazarus.exe
At this moment I do not suggest to try source editor (if you compiled
with 1.0.6 on win98se). Maybe you have to reboot. Dialogs work and the
property editor but... Look and you will see.
(With fpc1.0.7 no hangs.)
You can compile examples also:
cd examples
make
If you extracted lazarus to another drive, eg.: d:\lazarus. It can happen
that you need the gnu utility to make it. If you have it, you can take its
path to set path=...;<gmakepath> but it is simpler not to choose drive d:\
That's all.
