Well, here's an example for you of why people may refuse to use SVN. I downloaded the sources via svn and built Lazarus, no problem in that step. Then I ran V2.0 and started installing some packages I use. I got the following error on rebuilding Lazarus, line 1134 of IBCustomDataSet, which is " Result := ValidUTF8String(TextToSingleLine(Result))" The error message was "Identifier not found, ValidUTF8String". Now what? Brian. -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus-ide.org https://lists.lazarus-ide.org/listinfo/lazarus
