fpGUI information
=================
This version of fpGUI is based on a implementation where every
widget has a window handle. In other words every widget is actually
an embedded window in the Form (yet another window).
Revision 127 was the last revision which still had the old design - one
handle per Form.
It has been tagged in SubVersion as /tags/single_handle_fpgui
From revision 227, the new design (multi-handle implementation) has
become the new default implementation of fpGUI. It was a complete
rewrite of the code.
To install FPC under Debian/Ubuntu
==================================
Select the fpc.deb metapackage, which depends on a number of sub-packages
containing the compiler, the units and so on. The 'libc' unit provided by
FPC is included in the fp-units-i386.deb package, which is however marked
as "deprecated" by the Ubuntu package manager and is therefore *not*
installed by default using fpc.deb.
The following command will set up FPC under Ubuntu in order to be used with
fpGUI:
sudo apt-get install fpc fp-units-i386
How to compile fpGUI
====================
Please see the readme.txt file in the "src" directory.
System requirements under Linux
===============================
To be able to compile and link fpGUI based applications you need to install
the following library dependencies. The packages will pull in all the other
required packages too.
$ sudo apt-get install libX11-dev
$ sudo apt-get install libXft-dev
