Inoussa, please make a new release of WST. The current release does not compile with FPC 3.0.
Details:
 http://forum.lazarus.freepascal.org/index.php/topic,24519.msg232372.html#msg232372
WST trunk compiles.
Getting WST release versions now is confusing. Your home page says "Current Version is 0.6" but a download link gets 0.6.1.
The SourceForge page
only shows version 0.5.

Please also provide a package for our new online package manager.
It has a nice wizard for generating the needed package.
Package authors / maintainers must be active providing new versions in future. Otherwise the whole idea will not work.

There is a lengthy discussion about OPM in Lazarus forum.
BTW, it is a big thing, one of the missing pieces in Lazarus.

Regards,
Juha

Hi Juha,

Thank you for the effort. I will take a look the weekend.

Best regards.

There is still no new release.
How about a package for the Online Package Manager?
Inoussa, please test with Lazarus 1.8RC1.

Hello Juha,

I just committed FPC 3.1.1+ support, compile and test with Lazarus 1.8RC2.

I will have a look at the package manager later.

I am sorry for the delay.

Best regards.

Thanks.
Now a new release would be more important. People who search for latest WST find an old release that does not even compile.
Somebody (GetMem maybe) can make a package for Online Package Manager so it is ready for Lazarus 1.8.
In future it would be nice if you provided packages of new WST releases.

Regards,
Juha

Yes, WST trunk works with Lazarus 1.8RC2. Forgot to mention.

That will be great.

I will do.


I committed a fix for the Type Library Editor.

Thank you.
How about the new release? The homepage:
still says "Current Version is 0.6" but it does not even compile.
The SourceForge CCR page:
offers only version 0.5.

When are you planning to jump to version number 1.0?
I think WST is mature enough for it now. If not, then just make it 0.7.

I am planing the next version to be 1.0; But for that, a revised
documentation and samples will be needed.

I can publish a version 0.7 in the meantime though.
