The FPC user manual states the compiler will look for a configuration
file fpc.cfg in the following places:
• Under UNIX (such as LINUX)
1. The current directory.
2. Your home directory, it looks for .fpc.cfg.
3. The directory specified in the environment variable PPC_CONFIG_PATH,
and if it is
not set, it will look in the etc directory above the compiler directory.
(For instance, if the
compiler is in /usr/local/bin, it will look in /usr/local/etc)
4. The directory /etc.
• Under all other OSes:
1. The current directory.
2. If it is set, the directory specified in the environment variable
PPC_CONFIG_PATH.
3. The directory where the compiler is.
whereas the IDE looks in the following places:
1. $HOME/.fpc.cfg
2. compiler path + fpc.cfg
3. working directory + fpc.cfg
4. /etc/fpc.cfg (on Unix only)
1. Shouldn't the IDE follow what the FPC user manual states? In
particular, compilerpath/../etc vs compilerpath
2. I tried to put fpc.cfg in the fpc binary directory, but the IDE did
not detect it. Is that a bug?
