Could you please give me a link to download 3.0.2 source archive? I'm on the FPC sourceforge page but I'm very confused as to what is what. -----Original Message----- From: fpc-pascal [mailto:fpc-pascal-boun...@lists.freepascal.org] On Behalf Of Graeme Geldenhuys Sent: Monday, May 15, 2017 12:18 PM To: fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org Subject: Re: [fpc-pascal] FPC 64bit for windows On 2017-05-15 16:57, James Richters wrote: > I'm not quite following your batch file.

If you want the FPC 3.0.2 version, then download the official source archive for the 3.0.2 release from FPC's SourceForge page. > Here is where I am at: I have just downloaded your repo at > https://github.com/graemeg/freepascal and I have it saved at That repo only tracks the Trunk (unstable) branch. So if you want the source code of a stable release, download the archive from SourceForge. > 'J:\Programming\FreePascal' Is there a better place to download the > x86 64bit source? I normally order my directories as follows: c:\FPC \2.6.4\ \src \i386-win32 \bin \lib \share \x86_64-win64 \bin \lib \share \3.0.2\ \src \i386-win32 \bin \lib \share \x86_64-win64 \bin \lib \share So a source archive will be unpacked in the correct "src" directory. This setup also allows me to have a single global fpc.cfg file for all FPC versions. The paths in that fpc.cfg file uses FPC's macros to expand to the correct versions. My Linux and FreeBSD systems have a similar layout. > What directory do I put 'go.bat' It will go in the c:\fpc\<version>\ directory. But it doesn't really matter, as long as you adjust the paths inside the patch file to match your environment. Where am I setting Install_prefix? > Is that where I put the source code or where I want the compiled > version to go? That's where the new compiled version will go. So if you use FPC 2.6.4 to build a new 3.0.0 compiler, then the install prefix will translate to the path: c:\fpc\3.0.0\x86_64-win64\ Regards, Graeme -- fpGUI Toolkit - a cross-platform GUI toolkit using Free Pascal http://fpgui.sourceforge.net/ My public PGP key: http://tinyurl.com/graeme-pgp _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
