ok... 6 directories made...
There is an one error:
Change this c:\freepascal\fpc\2.5.1\ to c:\freepascal\fpc\2.4.3\
I changed on the wiki.
yes, i saw the note on another list about some changes...
b. Dir: c:\freepascal\fpc\2.4.3
URL: http://svn.freepascal.org/svn/fpc/branches/fixes_2_4/
wait... i don't have a c:\freepascal\fpc\2.4.3 directory... ok...
let's
create it real quick...
md c:\freeepascal\fpc\2.4.3
Oh, you saw... =)
well, kinda had to since the instructions for the SVN update pointed to a
different directory ;)
18. step 6: execute makelaz.bat to make lazarus... utoh! problem... i
suspect
the fpcmkcfg command line in 16a2 to be in error... when i compare the
posted fpc.cfg in the wiki with the one generated, the paths are
different
in the generated one... they all contain "\bin\i386-win32" which is not
in
the one posted on the wiki...
a. here's the output and the error i get...
Copy fpc.cfg script on the page... it works.
i've done that and yes, it does work... however, the (buried) question is if the
commandline's basepath= is incorrect...
i've done this a couple of times and get the same error... however, fixing
the paths in the fpc.cfg to remove the "\bin\i386-win32" portion put there
by the above fpcmake command in 16a2 seems to fix this problem...
is the fpcmkcfg command in 16a2 incorrect? should the basepath simply be
"C:\freepascal\fpc\2.4.3" or will this cause other problems??
I use the script on the page... the fpcmkcfg was included later (by
someone), but I not tested.
ahhh... can you say if, as asked above, the basepath= portion is what is in
error??
FYI: i'm looking to expand on the given instructions to include what is
necessary to add cross compilation from OS whatever to OS something else... i
hope that there's only a few minor changes needed... FPC is already placed into
its own directory with an i386-win32 path... what would be needed to add
i386-GO2V2 and i386-OS2 to the instructions? those are examples but are my
target platforms so they serve as live examples :P
i note that the lazarus does not seem to take into account the target OS and so
simply takes the whole freepascal/laz directory to hand... what is needed to
configure it for i386-win32, i386-GO2V2 and i386-OS2??
correcting the 13 instances to remove the "\bin\i386-win32" portion allow
makelaz.bat to execute and there appears to be a valid executable at the
end... i'm even able to create, compile and execute the two button "your
first lazarus program" tutorial (when i can locate it in the wiki) so i
assume that i have a valid fpc and lazarus environment...
am i missing anything? what about cross-compiling capabilities? i should be
able to add OS/2 and DOS to this setup pretty easily, right? i know i need
libraries and such for them to get started with... are there step by step
instructions that will meld with this layout??
thanks for reading... i hope this one wasn't off topic or otherwise
undesired as so many of my past posts seemingly have been...
Please, try again. I saw the wiki instructions. I think just the path
(\2.5.1 to \2.4.3) was wrong (before, at the first time, I used the
2.5.1 compiler. After I changed to 2.4.3 and I forgot to change the
wiki... sorry).
not a problem... as noted, i got thru it other than the fpcmkcfg commandline
problem which i questioned originally... plus having the answers to
adding/moving the example method to support crosscompiling with little
modification other than holefully unzipping compiler X and libs Y would be a
huge godsend ;)
