Lazarus is still building for ARM, I'll report back when I know how that looks. I'll also check the exact kernel versions that the test systems have running, in case there's some problem.


I'll see if I find the time => it should be simple to copy the code from unit GDBMIClasses) TPseoudoTerminal.Open /Read and make a small test app, that will open a pseudo terminal, set the handle to none-blocking read, and call read on it => and test if read will block or not.

Ok, the below code, imualtes the pseudoterminal handling => the read is supposed to bne none blocking.

maybe some of the constants are indeed wrong for your system (endianess)?

Thanks, I'll work on that as soon as I have time. If it were a simple endianness issue I'd expect PPC (PowerPC, in an old Mac) to fail.

>>   O_NONBLOCK = &04000;

For some reason that reminded me of a discussion of serial access on OSX in the fpc-pascal ML a few days ago. Nobody actually said in that thread that that varied by architecture, but a bit of Googling got me http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1093174 hence on one of my systems

$ find . -name fcntl.h -exec grep O_NONBLOCK \{\} \; -print

#define O_NONBLOCK      0x4000
./include/asm-sparc64/fcntl.h

etc. Also fpc/.../linux/ostypes.inc specifically has a different value for SPARC... GOK who's originally responsible for that inconsistency.
