For fun, just installed Free Pascal<\/a>, the GDB debugger<\/a> and Lazarus 1.6.0<\/a> onto my Mac.<\/p>\n

First I downloaded and installed, fpc-3.0.0.intel-macosx.dmg, fpcsrc-3.0.0-20151207-macosx.dmg, and lazarus-1.6.i686-macoxs.dmg from SourceForge.net<\/a>.<\/p>\n

When initially launching Lazarus, the GDB debugger could not be found.  The best guide for installing GDB on OS X (which works for El Capitan) was from Neil Traft at ntraft.com<\/a>. Following Neil\u2019s steps, GDB was installed at \/usr\/local\/Cellar\/gdb\/7.10.1\/bin\/gdb.<\/p>\n

Next I put a TButton onto a form and tried to hookup the OnClick.  I was greeted with this error message: lclclasses.pp(26,10) Error: unit not found: Classes.<\/p>\n

<\/a> <\/p>\n

The solution: go to the Lazarus menu item Tools<\/strong> and select Rescan FPC Source Directory<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Making native OS X applications in now fun (and free).<\/p>\n
