Because there is a cycle. It is built relatively late, and then it could only be used to generate files AFTER it was built. ... but the compiler directory itself uses it. > If not possible, why don't put it in, eg, /install/binw32? That directory is for external binaries, not for FPC generated ones. _______________________________________________ fpc-devel maillist - fpc-devel@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-devel
