Requirements:
- Lazarus 2.0 RC1 (or trunk)
- FPC 3.0.4 (or trunk)
Build ZCAD:
- install cad_sources/other/rtl-generics_for_FPC304 package to lazarus if you use fpc 3.0.4
- install cad_sources/other/rtl-generics_dummy package to lazarus if you use trunk fpc
- install zcad packages from 'cad_sources/components' to lazarus
- install third party packages from 'cad_sources/other' to lazarus
- check whether the PATH variable includes path to lazbuild binary
- if need set PATH variable:
$ export PATH="$PATH:/your/patch/to/lazarus/" - run
$ ./zcad.sh(or zcadelectrotech.sh) file - open zcad.lpi in lazarus and compile
