I see a potential problem i my yesterday's solution. Now I use an initialized variable (or typized constant) which changes its value at run-time. That is good while compiler compiles only one application (e.g. from the command line). But if compiler will compile more than once at run-time (e. g. it will be a dll called from IDE), all such flag variables should be re-initialized before next job. Currently no re-initialization is provided in my path. Is this re-initialization really actual? -- Best regards, Pavelmailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ fpc-devel maillist - fpc-devel@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-devel

Re[5]: [fpc-devel] is smartlink of Win32 DLLs broken again? And a old FreeBSD port problem additionaly
Hello all, It seems, I solved the smartlink problem. Solution: 1) in pexports.pas, I added into interface part of unit var BinaryContainsExports: boolean = false; 2) in pexports.pas, in first line of main body of read_exports procedure, I added begin BinaryContainsExports:=true; //NEW!!! DefString:=''; 3) in pmodules.pas, I added a reference to pexports into the uses clause of implementation part. 4) in pmodules.pas, I changed a line in proc_program procedure: INSTEAD if assigned(exportlib) and (target_info.system in [system_i386_win32,system_i386_wdosx]) and assigned(current_module._exports.first) then codesegment.concat(tai_const.create_sym(exportlib.edatalabel)); I MADE if assigned(exportlib) and (target_info.system in [system_i386_win32,system_i386_wdosx]) and BinaryContainsExports then codesegment.concat(tai_const.create_sym(exportlib.edatalabel)); That's all. The patched compiler builds my tests correctly. -- Best regards, Pavelmailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ fpc-devel maillist - fpc-devel@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-devel
Re[4]: [fpc-devel] is smartlink of Win32 DLLs broken again? And a old FreeBSD port problem additionaly
Hello all, I found something that explains a loss of reference from PASCALMAIN module to edata module. In pmodules.pas, in proc_program procedure an inserting of this reference is provided. if assigned(exportlib) and (target_info.system in [system_i386_win32,system_i386_wdosx]) and assigned(current_module._exports.first) then But actually current_module._exports.first is nil (at least at this stage). The condition is false, inserting doesn't occur. Pavel ___ fpc-devel maillist - fpc-devel@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-devel

Hello Peter, PV> Since the problem is not in FPC code we can't fix it. I'm not sure that you are right. There were a solution found that was based on a code generated by compiler. An asm/obj module with PASCALMAIN conained a reference to a label which was located in an asm/obj module contained export data section. In current compiler, this label creating is supported but a creation of the reference from PASCALMAIN module is lost. Additionaly, I use ld version 2.15.91 20040904. -- Best regards, Pavelmailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ fpc-devel maillist - fpc-devel@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-devel

Maybe a problem with binutils. The stripping of .stabs sections ("ld -s"
or using strip) is also broken with recent binutils. We can't use old
binutils since they can't link with recent cygwin libraries.
Since the problem is not in FPC code we can't fix it.

[fpc-devel] is smartlink of Win32 DLLs broken again? And a old FreeBSD port problem additionaly
Hello all,
1) I tried now to build a dll with {$smartlink on} using 1.9.9 compiler
built at beginning of April. The created DLL did not contain export
names. An analysis of generated asm code pointed that although a
global label at beginning of .rva-containing asm-file has been
correctly created but the PASCALMAIN module did not contain a
reference to this label. At result, all EDATAs sould be eliminated at
linking stage.
2) Because I braced up, to write this letter :), I would also report a
old problem which I got using an old 1.1 FreeBSD port. I needed to
build a shared UDF library for MySQL. While loading created .so file,
I got an error message - something like "main entry point not found".
An analysis of asm code demonstated that global main function mas
named not "main" but had a name combined from a shared module name and
"_main", therefore the dynamic linker could not find main entry point.
At that time I solved this problem editing the asm code but this way
seems to be not normal.
Sincerely, Pavel
