Software Description:
Lazarus provides developers with a feature-richdevelopment environment for Delphi, enabling them to create fullyfunctional, cross-platform applications designed for both personaland commercial use.
With a history of more than 15 years, the Lazarus project includesa comprehensive IDE for Free Pascal that comes with debugging andcompiling capabilities, along with additional components,frameworks and packages required in the development process.
Lazarus is a Delphi compatible cross-platform IDE for Free Pascal.It includes LCL which is more or less compatible with Delphi’s VCL.Free Pascal is a GPL’ed compiler that runs on Linux, Win32, OS/2,68K and more. Free Pascal is designed to be able to understand andcompile Delphi syntax, which is OOP.
Lazarus is the part of the missing puzzle that will allow you todevelop Delphi like programs in all of the above platforms. UnlikeJava which strives to be a write once run anywhere, Lazarus andFree Pascal strives for write once compile anywhere. Since theexact same compiler is available on all of the above platforms itmeans you don’t need to do any recoding to produce identicalproducts for different platforms.
An intuitive IDE
Thanks to the tab-based interface and the accessible toolbars, theIDE is very easy to work with. It comes with a detachable sourcecode editor that allows syntax highlighting, line numbering,comment insertion, code completion and syntax checking, which arecommon features for any application of its kind.
You can use it to manage your project, import Delphi code and filesto Lazarus, manage project requirements or use the includedcollection of templates to help you get started.
Integrated graphical form designer
Lazarus also comes with a graphical form designer, ready to assistdevelopers in creating user interfaces with a more complex layoutand multiple components. Its rich and diverse object libraryincludes various components, such as drop-down lists, buttons,menus, text input fields, check boxes, shapes, scroll boxes,progress bars, navigation buttons, tool bars, tab-based menus,image lists, dialogs, data control tools, charts and the list doesnot end here. It can also integrate Pascal scripts, databasemanagement tools and specific LazControls.
The ‘Object Inspector’ helps you configure the properties of eachitem, set the response to user actions, manage anchors and setrestrictions for specific widget sets. The application also comeswith an integrated debugger that can help you quickly identifyerrors within your code, as well as a compiler that enables you toeasily deploy the project.
An application suitable for any Delphi programmer
Lazarus is an open-source package that developers can use to buildDelphi applications of all kinds. Thanks to the intuitive IDE andthe wide range of components and functions, it can be considered areal asset to those who like working with Delphi.
Here are some key features of “Lazarus”:
Freedom
– LGPL licensed libraries allow you to create your ownapplications under any license you desire. Even commercial closedsource.
– GPL licensed IDE
– Cross Platform IDE. Work on your favourite system.
– Platform independent projects out of the box. Simply copyyour project to another platform and compile it.
– Build native binaries. Distribute your binaries withoutdependencies on any runtime environment.
Ease of use
– Installer, with all required files available
– Easy Drag & Drop Form designer to create powerfullayouts
– Automatic synchronization between GUI-Forms and code
– Powerful code editor with syntax highlighting and codecompletion
– Navigate pascal source code
– Refactoring tools
– Integrated build system and debugger. Run, test and debugyour projects from the IDE
Extensibility
– Open Source. You can add or modify existing code andcomponents to meet your requirements
– Lazarus package system allows to install 3rd party add onsfor more components or to extend the IDE
– Several database frameworks to meet your requirements
– Reporting and Charting
– A choice of Networking libraries available.
– Utf8 and i18n support. Translate your projects.
– Many more components. Build in and for download
Cross Platform
Lazarus runs on Windows, MacOS, Linux and many other platforms.Even on Raspberry Pi! The programs you create also runs on theseplatforms. Enjoy the same experience on your favorite OS. SeeInstalling Lazarus for OS-specific instructions forinstallation.
Powerful, Fast
Lazarus is a capable IDE for handling large projects. Its compilerFPC is being constantly developed to improve performance. As anexample for the project size the IDE can handle, and theperformance of the resulting application: The Lazarus IDE itself isdeveloped using Lazarus.
Drag and Drop Form Designer
Lazarus has a graphical form designer with guidelines for aligningwith adjacent components. There are numerous components for almostevery software imaginable, already ready to be used. Furthercomponents can be added to the IDE by Lazarus Package Files(LPKs).
Cross-platform
Lazarus form designer uses LCL (Lazarus Component Library) which isespecially designed for cross platform usage. Building your projectfor different platforms will give you native look and feel on eachplatform. There are no changes to the project needed.
Modern, Object oriented language
Lazarus uses Free Pascal as its language which is an Object Pascaldialect. It is constantly developed to integrate new features thatcan be expected in modern programming languages.
Easily Extendable
Hundreds of developers are developing and maintaining their LazarusLibraries and Lazarus Packages (LPKs). You can find almost any kindof library that you may need.
Open source
Lazarus is open source and the core libraries are distributed underLGPL with the extra permission of static linking. So you can createnon-commercial and commercial applications with it.
This applies to LCL, FCL, RTL. It covers all the standardcomponents and many other. Some of the packages with extracomponents may be GPL, MPL or other
Frameworks
Various Frameworks are available which saves your time on certaincodebase.
Installer Size: 120 + 135 MB
