  • Comment: Abandoned project takeover: freepascal

    Logged In: YES user_id=182225 1. Free Pascal is a 32 bit pascal compiler. It is available for different processors (Intel 80386 and compatibles and Motorola 680x0) and operating systems (Linux, FreeBSD, DOS, Win32, OS/2, BeOS, SunOS (Solaris), QNX and Classic Amiga). The language syntax is semantically compatible with TP 7.0 as well as most versions of Delphi (classes, rtti, exceptions,

  • Abandoned project takeover: freepascal

    Hello, I am one of the core developers of the Free Pascal project. (see http://www.freepascal.org) sourceforge hosts a "freepascal" project (http://freepascal.sourceforge.net/), which has never been maintained. The maintainer is not a member of our development group and doesn't answer to our emails, and we'd really like to be able to use this project on sourceforge - we...

  • No possibility to delete key

    There is currently no possibility to delete an entry in a section. I have code which does this, it is attached. Maybe it can be added to the project.

  • TControl.Enabled doesn't cascade correct

    Create a new form, and add a button and a groupbox on it. In the groupbox, add a label and a text edit. disable the groupbox. (i.e. set enabled to false) Add an event handler to the button which toggles the Enabled property of the groupbox. In runtime, when enabling the groupbox, the label on it stays disabled. The problem does not appear when the groupbox is enabled at design time. It also...

  • Comment: SelectDirectory is not consistent

    Logged In: YES user_id=182225 As a side remark: An ansistring function result is always (implicitly) initialized to a zero string. Failing to do so would result in wrong reference counts and access violations. ( This can be verified in the CPU window of the IDE, where it can be seen that prior to calling a function returning an ansistring, the address for the return value is always...

  • Comment: Incorrect SetTextBuf behaviour

    Logged In: YES user_id=182225 First of all, that this would cause problems when repeatedly opening closing these files is not true: After the first close/rewrite, the buffer will be reset to its default 128 byte size. So the effect is practically nihil. Adding an explicit Rewrite/Reset in the initialization unit (that is all that is required to solve the problem, after all) does not change...

  • Comment: FileOpen does not allow O_NONBLOCK

    Logged In: YES user_id=182225 I beg to differ on the first point: from 'man 2 open' O_NONBLOCK or O_NDELAY The file is opened in non-blocking mode. Neither the open nor any subsequent operations on the file descriptor which is returned will cause the calling process to wait. For the handling of FIFOs (named pipes), see also fifo(4). Remark the 'nor any subsequent...

  • Missing cdecl for globfree

    The globfree function definition in the Libc unit has a missing 'cdecl' modifier. Any attempt to use the function as defined in Libc results in stack corruption, causing program crashes. The following declaration is working fine for me: Procedure globfree(__pglob: PGlobData);cdecl;external libcmodulename name 'globfree';.

  • Comment: getitimer declaration in Libc wrong

    Logged In: YES user_id=182225 I know it works correctly (I tried it); I just posted it because as (correctly) pointed out, the compiler may do some wrong optimizations based on the wrong assumption that the __value record is unchanged after the call to getitimer.
