Lazarus 1.0.6 release available for download

FYI,  the 1.0.6 installer is identified by Kaspersky Endpoint Security as being infected by Trojan-Ransom.Win32.Gimemo.axlf.

Presumably this is a false positive.

Oops,  I should have qualified the above by saying that it is  the 32bit installer only that Kaspersky does not like.  Specifically, lazarus-1.0.6-fpc-2.6.0-win32.exe

When will there be a version with MacOSX LCL working in cocoa?

We are aware of this. It seems to be the lhelp.exe that Kaspersky dislikes (today a few of the less well known scanners, seem to have copied the signature which leads to the alert). Checked  a huge selection of the installed files via virustotal.com.

Furthermore: If I strip the file lhelp.exe then it is no longer reported. Strip only removes debug symbols.

If concerned you can always build from source.

There are also (and have at random been) some scanners that pick at the gnu tools. Some of those files being unchanged for more than half a decade (the copy in the fpc svn). Within all those years those files have usually been reported clean.

Can you test again with Kaspersky?

I submitted the lhelp file to them for analysis and they confirmed it harmless. It seems they have already updated their signatures too.

Brilliant release as always.
I'm currently using the 1.1 WIP versions in my project (I know I shouldn't but it's working so fine).

Congrats to the team for the best Object Pascal IDE in the world.

I had 1.1, eventually had 1.04.
Originally fpc 2.60 and upgraded to 2.61.
Now I get the 1.06 64bit version which installs fine. I then run the MSSQL example which says it needs atleast 2.61 to run.
If I install 2.61, it overwrites the new 1.06.

What should I do ?

[Vincent Snijders]

Can't you do the same thing as when you upgraded 2.6.0 to 2.6.1 when you had 1.0.4?

Was all a bit of a muddle to be honest. I'll have another try.

Is there any reason why 2.6.1 isn't in the latest build instead of 2.6.0 ?

[Vincent Snijders]

Because it is not a release.

[Zath]

Because it is not a release.

I see.
Still new to all this 
Thanks for your time.

You can try:

install 1.1, then 1.0.6 (but skip the uninstall.
I believe 1.1 with 26.1 will install fpc in a folder 2.6.1, so this will be kept.


Otherwise: Copy the fpc folder, after install of 1.1. FInd the file fpc.cfg and fix all pathes inside using a texteditor.

--
In both cases you then need to open the options in Lazarus and point to the right fpc

Thank you Martin.

Great, this is good news (again).

Mac OS X:        10.5, LCL only 32bit, non LCL apps can be 64bit

BTW, unlike Lazarus 1.0.2 and 1.0.4, the 1.0.6 version supports also Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger again. Thank you for your efforts.
