Installation

LNet 0.5+:

  • In the lazarus/components directory, unzip the files from lnet-<version>.zip file. The lnet-<version> folder will be created.
  • Open lazarus
  • Open the package lnet-<version>/lazaruspackage/lnetvisual.lpk with Component/Open package file (.lpk)
  • Click on Install and answer ‘Yes’ when you are asked about Lazarus rebuilding. A new tab named ‘lNet’ will be created in the components palette.

NOTE: users who don’t want to depend on LCL but use LNet in Lazarus (non-visually), can just compile lnetbase.lpk, which adds all the base units to path.

LNet 0.4:

  • In the lazarus/components directory, unzip the files from lnet-<version>.zip file. The lnet-<version> folder will be created.
  • Open lazarus
  • Open the package lnet-<version>/lazaruspackage/lnetpackage.lpk with Component/Open package file (.lpk)
  • Click on Compile
  • Open the package lnet-<version>/lazaruspackage/ide/lnetidepackage.lpk with Component/Open package file (.lpk)
  • Click on Install and answer ‘Yes’ when you are asked about Lazarus rebuilding. A new tab named ‘lNet’ will be created in the components palette.

NOTE: older lNet is extraced to “lnetpackage” dir. Since 0.4.0 the “visual” and “non visual” packages are in one distribution file.
