So they support now native development on MacOS X as well? Or is cross compilation from win still the only way?

Cross compilation *to* win from any targets works very well with FPC. The problem are platforms like linux where linking is basically impossible without having the libraries of the target system available. _______________________________________________ fpc-devel maillist - fpc-devel@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-devel
