Implementing pkg EducationLaz corrupts "Options" 10 years 5 months ago #4772

Bernard Asher Topic Author Offline New Member Posts: 16 Thank you received: 1	After installing the EducationLaz 1.01 package you cannot choose the "Tools - Options" menu choice anymore It fails with the message "Unknown/Unsupported Targa image type". This didn't happen in CT 4.4, but now in 4.6 it happens, both in Win32 and Win64 versions. Can anyone help me with this?

I can understand that no one responded to this bug report. You have to use the Education package to fully understand its virtues. The one most important feature is its ability to make components and tabs from the component palette invisible. For anyone who likes a small palette of just the components used in his projects, the Education package is indispensable.

So, please Mr. Sternas, can you have a look at this?

I wouldn't mind debugging this problem myself. However I have no idea how to debug the IDE (I rebuilt it already with Dwarf2 debugging options).
First of all I would have to block the system from stripping the debug information.
If I open the project "C:\codetyphon\typhon\ide\typhon.lpi" and try to run it, it says:

No program file "C:\codetyphon\typhon\typhon.exe" found

which is true but very unhelpful.
If I try to build it, it says:

The program's compiler options has no compile options

which is wrong and even more unhelpful.
So, what is the right way to debug the IDE?

Thanks.

The problem with the Education package stems from a possibly invalid icon in the dwScript package. Ignoring the exception that results from it cures the problem.

The Education package still does not display the correct icons for any components, though.

This is the patch:

Module EduCompPalette:
procedure TEduCompPaletteFrame.FillComponentTreeView;
.
.
Line 174:
//    if ResHandle <> nil then                             // BA
//      Image := CreateBitmapFromResourceName(HInstance, ResHandle.Name) //BA
      if ResHandle <> nil then begin                       // BA
        Try                                                // BA
          Image := CreateBitmapFromResourceName(HInstance, ResHandle.Name) //BA
        except                                             // BA
          Image := nil;                                    // BA
        end;                                               // BA
      end                                                  // BA
