[fpc-pascal]Linker error under FreeBSD
Hello I tried to compile a program with fpc (for FreeBSD). The objectfile was build, but the linker put an error msg on the screen. linking /usr/bin/ld cannot find -ldl ehh ? I looked in the /usr/bin dir, the gnu linker is there. What`s the problem ?

Re: [fpc-pascal]TRegistry unit not functional on win32?
On Tue, 8 Jul 2003, Ronald L Fox wrote: Aloha, I'm trying to use the TRegistry object of fpc 1.0.6 for Win32 on Win2k to check for the presence of a particular key, 'HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SimonTatham\PuTTY\SshHostKeys' and value name '[EMAIL PROTECTED]:ahost.ourdomain.com'. I've studied the Registry unit's source from \source\fcl\inc\registry.pp and the Borland Delphi 2.0 VCL help file but can't get anything but lies from my code. A simple test program and runtime output below illustrates the problem. No matter what I enter, the program indicates that the key exists and that it has no subkeys and no values. Since the keys are supposed to be relative to the base or root key, I know that there is no nada key but that there is a Software key with many subkeys and values. Is this unit supposed to be functional? Any idea how I can perform this simple existence test if Registry isn't functional? The official 1.0.6 release didn't contain a functional registry unit. However, the latest sources do contain a version that works on Windows and on Linux. You can always download the latest sources and compile the unit yourself.

RE: [fpc-pascal]Need packages.zip , link is down.
You can get the whole of the current v10 or v11 source from ftp.freepascal.org/pub/fpc/snapshot/v11/source or /v10/source in fpc.zip, or you can get packages.zip from these directories too... The ftp site has been down for a few days but seems ok at the moment. hth Regards John -Original Message- From: Karim Forsthofer [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, July 08, 2003 21:47 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [fpc-pascal]Need packages.zip , link is down. Hello I need the packages.zip from the fpc page. But the download link is not up since a long time. Is there an other link, or can anybody send it to me ? That would be great. By the way, a lot of download links (mirrors) are down on the fpc page. I only found my FreeBSD fpc Version avaliable on the japan pub.

Re: [fpc-pascal]TRegistry unit not functional on win32?
Is the unit verified to work on Win NT?? (i.e. NT4 - XP) because the 9x registry is different to the NT one. Could be a security issue. Matt ___ fpc-pascal maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal

[fpc-pascal]New to the list/question
Pascal enthusiasts, I'm new to the list and just wanted to introduce myself. I got my first tast of Pascal in college on a VAX 11/750 under the VMS operating system. Nowdays Linux is my preferred platform. I was thrilled to discover Free Pascal. It's like becoming reacquanted with an old friend. I have one question. Are there any modules available to easily create text based user interfaces? I know now days everyone prefers GUI interfaces. For quick data entry one can't beat a good old text based user interface.

[fpc-pascal]FORTRAN-like read
I want to provide a formatted read like FORTRAN's. I have found a public-domain implementation but it concatenats the input data as bytes, making assumptions about the endian-ness and size of various types. The alternatives I've devised are (1) returning a sequence of strings or (2) a linked list of records. Is there a way, possibly an OOP way, of representing a sequence of values of arbitrary type?

Re: [fpc-pascal]New to the list/question
Alan, I'm looking for something with some form of form management capabilities. Something that would let one define a form, add some widgets to the form, then call a function to handle user input, navigating between widgets, and the like.

All your programs will, by default, be console applications that use write/writeln and read/readln.
