Martin 66bc8c9281 IDE: Run/Debug, refactored getting the "working directory" for the project. Related to issue #32331
- "Debug" and "Run without Debug" now use the same steps to get the "working directory":
1: BuildMode.RunParams "working directory" set by user (New, this can now be relative to project dir)
2: Project Dir, if not virtual
3: Directory from Host-App (RunParams), or if (and only if) Host-App is empty from Project.exe
(If host app is in %PATH, then there is no "working directory")

1 and 2 are as before.
3 was used before for "debugging", but "run without debug" did use: "Launch-App", "Host-App", Project.exe

Welcome to Lazarus

Lazarus is a Rapid Application Development Tool for Free Pascal. It comes with the LCL - Lazarus component library, which contains platform independent visual components like buttons, windows, checkbox, treeview and many, many more. The LCL is platform independent, so you can write an application once and then compile for various platforms without changing code.

Free Pascal is a fast Object Pascal compiler (and more), that runs on more than 20 platforms (Linux, Windows, BSD, OS/2, DOS, PowerPC, and many more).

The LCL currently supports:

  • Linux/FreeBSD (GTK2, Qt4 and Qt5)
  • all flavors of Windows (even WinCE)
  • Mac OS X (Cocoa, Carbon, GTK2, Qt4, Qt5)

There is an experimental support for:

  • GTK3
  • Solaris

The LCL still contains code for GTK1, although that is obsolete.


Compilation: You don't need ./configure, just do make clean bigide. (BSD users: gmake clean bigide).

This will create the Lazarus executable with a lot of packages. Start it and enjoy.

If the above gives an error, you can try to build a minimal IDE with make clean all.

(BSD users: gmake clean all).


Installation and Requirements:

See docs/INSTALL.txt file.


Usage:

Start the IDE with:

cd your/lazarus/directory
./lazarus

Documentation:

The official site is www.lazarus-ide.org. Documents about specific topics can be found at https://wiki.freepascal.org/Lazarus_Documentation. Examples on how to use the LCL can be found in the 'examples' directory. Help, documents and files about Free Pascal are at www.freepascal.org.


Mailing list:

There is a very active and helpful mailing list for Lazarus, where the developers interact, share ideas, discuss problems, and of course answer questions. You can subscribe at http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus


How to help Lazarus:

If you find bugs, don't hesitate to use issue tracker, or send an email to the list. Lazarus source code and issue tracker are located at GitLab: https://gitlab.com/freepascal.org/lazarus/lazarus
