the compiler says "Can't find unit ComponentTreeView used by ObjectInspector".
This message in plain English language seems clear to me, also because I am accustomed to it (I have been working with Delphi since v. 1). Nothing of that. The compiler wants to mean "I found unit ComponentTreeView and want to compile it again but I should not". As in the old joke, this clearly shows that Lazarus is female :) I hope you are wrong, because I wont work with a tool that gives so misleading messages. Anyway your suggestions didnt work ... or I didnt apply them in the correct way. This is what I did 1. added switch -vut to CONFIGURE BUILD LAZARUS http://it.tinypic.com/r/f24u83/5 2. opened the package I am interested in http://it.tinypic.com/r/rc8tok/5 3. compiled the package http://it.tinypic.com/r/s2fd3s/5 4. tried to install it... http://it.tinypic.com/r/2a7bpg9/5 http://it.tinypic.com/r/qqx17l/5 5. after a few minutes, I see the same error message as before http://it.tinypic.com/r/2il24ur/5 I hope that Lazarus _really_ cant find unit ComponentTreeView and that there is a way to tell Lazarus where to search for it... :) Thank you Peppe 2014/1/10 Mattias Gaertner <[email protected]>: > On Fri, 10 Jan 2014 22:49:53 +0100 > duilio foschi <[email protected]> wrote: > >>[...] >> type to Lazarus package (*.lpk), locate and open GR32_DSGN_L.dpk >>[...] >> Only at the last step, when Lazarus compiles itself, I get the >> following error message: >> ..\ideintf\objectinspector.pp(47,3) Fatal: Can't find unit >> ComponentTreeView used by ObjectInspector >> >> A screenshot with the error message was uploaded at >> http://it.tinypic.com/r/v4s76w/5 > > The screenshot shows that componenttreeview.ppu was found, but the > compiler thinks it needs to be recompiled. > > >> I searched for file >> ComponentTreeView.pas > > Wrong track.
