We test CodeTyphon ver 4.80 on
Ubuntu 14.04 (Trusty Tahr) Beta 2
with Unity Desktop

Some screens from CodeTyphon Installation and Build procedure for Unity or KDE desktops
the procedure is the same both desktops use QT library:

1)-Copy, Unzip CodeTyphonIns.zip
2)-Give full "sudo" permissions to current user.

add in the end of /etc/sudoers the line

3)-Install CodeTyphon
4)-Select QT library from "Platform Setup"
5)-Install "System Libraries" from CT setup script.
6)-Build ALL (Freepascal and Typhon IDE). At this step CT will build and QT4Pas library from sources,
so building need more time...

General CT tests list for Unity Desktop (use QT library):

-CT System libraries installation
-CT Installation
-CT Build All procedure
-CT Update procedure
-CT ToolChains download procedure
-FreePascal compiler tests
-Typhon IDE tools tests
-CodeOcean samples tests

Some CodeOcean tests screens for CT libraries:

pl_Graphics32,
pl_ColorLib,
pl_BGRAbitmap, pl_BGRAcontrols,
pl_VirtualTrees,
pl_AGGPas,
pl_ExControls,
some tools and the new "Update/Download lab CT version" functionality..

and lets go to GTK Library now...

For GTK library MATE, GNOME, CINNAMON, LXDE and Xfce desktops:

1)-From CTCenter-Setup, select GTK2 Platform
3)-From CTCenter execute "Remove and Build Big IDE" to build Typhon IDE for GTK2

Note1: Also you can reinstall CT (clean install) and Build ALL for GTK2 Platform...

Note2:To install MATE Desktop execute in a terminal the commands:
have fun...

Very nice screenshots! Did you also try any GLScene sample?

I was able to run CT 4.8 on ubuntu 12.0.4. Attached is a shot with a GLScene sample running.

I have a IDE crash with using some Indy components (IdMCastClient). Have you a solution ?
Thanks

Follow the procedure described
I tried to install it several times and returns

sorry my bad english

Sir
did you install system libraries?
can you post here the building log (after zip) ?

follows the installation log

I'm trying to install CT 5.0 on Ubuntu 14.04.01. There are some system libs/software that are not installed. Did anyone tried this ? How to properly install ?
I've tried to build anyways, but it fails to start. I get the info that the config is from 4.9 and if I want to upgrade. Doesn't matter if I choose to upgrade or not the CT shuts down right after that.

Sir
did you follow our test here
Did you use Unity desktop ? In this case you must build Typhon for QT platform
Did you remove any other Lazarus or FreePascal installation ?
Did you install "System Libraries" ?
Can you post (after zip) the CTCenter Build Log ? info

We need more info to give you our help

Hi,

No, I didn't follow any tests - I did what I always do when upgrading. Launched the install in the terminal, and then:
0) Install System Libraries
and then
8) Remove and Build ALL
then I get my backup config back to the ~/.typhonX folder
then I launch CT and do config upgrade.
Sorry, not using CTCenter in any of the steps above (don't even know how to install via CTCenter).

The weird thing is that just now I've finished another attempt at the installation and now the IDE starts (after upgrading the config).
And just did a
7) Remove ALL
and now
0) Install System Libraries
to get the install logs


EDIT: From what I can tell some library versions are newer in current Ubuntu. And some binaries are not there.
EDIT2: Some parts of that log are in Polish, if there's something that needs to be translated then give me a shout.

"then I get my backup config back to the ~/.typhonX folder"

I think this is the problem .TyphonX directory has and the Typhon IDE version
file environmentoptions.xml line 4

Oh, errors on Make-links on "System Libraries" script are nothing
we must change this...

Maybe, but it launched after the last build.
Oh, I forgot to write earlier that it didn't launch even with the default config - sorry.
Also, I'm using gnome with gnome-session-fallback installed.

What about the libs/binaries that don't install ? Should I ignore that or is that fixable ?

Ignore these errors Sir
we must re-write this OS script (ln1_SysLibraries_Make_Links.sh) for better Ubuntu support
We have Ubuntu 14.10 for test in out Lab so is the proper time...

PS: Please use CTCenter for daily CodeTyphon Actions (Installation Status, Rebuilding , Update etc)

Thank you.
Only thing I use CTCenter for is to execute "FPCxx build cross element ALL". It's much easier to run the install from the terminal and run the options 0 and 8 then to use CTCenter for that (to be honest I didn't even search for any option regarding that in the CTCenter).

Have fun Sir

I've installed on Ubuntu 14.04 64 bits, and all works fine. When you install , it creates a hide directory in your home ".typhon64". How the installation must be with root user, you need change the permission of this directory (sudo chmod -R 777 /home/your_user_name/.typhon64) , because the permission is only for root. So the IDE starts ok.

Hello, i use Typhon 5.2 in last xubuntu. It works perfectly. I can place component and run it but when i press the delete button on design window, not remove component, it's delete code from source window. But active windows is design window. How can i solve this ?
Thank u
