lazutils, fixed encoding of string returned by GetAppConfigFileUTF8 (was ansi, should be utf8) ........ LazUtils: better fix for encoding of string returned by GetAppConfigFileUTF8 (Use WideString variant of GetSpecialDir which retruns UTF8: copy/paste error in r43495 #cba214753b) ........ git-svn-id: branches/fixes_1_2@43619 - |

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 at www.freepascal.org 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 (gtk, gtk2 and qt4), all flavors of Windows (even wince), Mac OS X (carbon, gtk, qt4), FreeBSD (gtk, gtk2). There is experimental support for Solaris and the native Pascal backend fpgui which runs on Windows, Wince and Linux. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 the file docs/INSTALL. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Usage: Start the IDE with: []$ cd your/lazarus/directory []$ ./lazarus -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Documentation: The official site is www.lazarus.freepascal.org. There you can find the FAQ - the frequently asked questions. Documents about specific topics can be found at 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 the bug tracking tool at the website, or send an email to the list. Patches can be sent as .zip or .tgz attachments directly to the mailing list if small, or (preferably) to the bug tracker at http://bugs.freepascal.org/my_view_page.php or send the patch to patch@dommelstein.net.
