[Lazarus] Lazarus-ccr Access

[Werner Pamler via Lazarus]

is that a candidate for ccr and can i get access to it?

It was Felipe who gave me commit rights for ccr, just contact him
directly referring to this thread. You'll find his mail address by
seeking his posts in this mailing list.

But to be honest, having exerienced a series of severe downs of
SourceFourge recently, I'd not recommend anybody to post new activities
to CCR (=SourceForce) any more. You are already on github, why don't you
stay there? You just should make sure that your package is added to
OnlinePackageManager such that it is easily reachable by Lazarus - but
in the forum there is already a discussion about this.

TStringGrid sorts everything as string!
To improve that i developed TSortGrid, derived from TStringGrid, but
capable of sorting Integer, Float, Date, Time, String and show up-
and down- Arrows in Titlebar.

You can also distribute it with Fppkg. The project is already on
github, adding it to the Lazarus-CCR does not add much value.
If you create an fpmake.pp file for it and send me the archive for it.
(fppkg archive) then I'll add it to the testing-repository. (btw: you
also may do this yourself, but for that you need an account and some
help.)

Hi Joost,

just discovered "online package manager"

it gets the packages from http://packages.lazarus-ide.org

This online package manager is a great tool and this location seems to
be the right place?

Howto upload to this URL?

p.s. never created a fpmake.pp :-(

Forget it, for now. I see that it is about TStringGrid, not TStringList.
Packages that depend on the LCL are a little bit hard in fpmake.

I think adding it to packages.lazarus-ide.org is a good idea. I do not
know how to do so, but others in this link must be able to tell you.

I've had a look at your code. Woudn't it be a good idea to add a setting
on how to sort. For example: float, string, date etc? And then an
'automatic' option for the current behaviour.

Even better would be to add this option on a per-column basis.

Regards,

Joost.

That sounds like a very useful addition. Thanks for your effort and sharing.

CCR is for community developed and maintained components, so I'm sure
your component would be welcomed.

Just to let you know, Lazarus-CCR also has a Git section, so you can
always import your existing repository into Lazarus-CCR keeping any
development history in tact. Just let the maintainers/admin people or
Lazarus-CCR know where you want to place your code.

https://sourceforge.net/p/lazarus-ccr/_list/git?source=navbar

I've been contributing to the "dcpcrypt" git repository there.

Graeme
