2012-06-26 Thread Matthias K.
Hi, After playing around with the jumptable generation for x86_64 (Linux) -- x86/nx86set.pas, i couldn't reproduce bug #0011931 anymore. Before someone else reiterates the building/testing/elf dumping, i'll describe shortly what i've found. The code generation for jumptables didn't change since

I just read your posting on Delphi's DivMod. It doesn't work very well, not on LongInt (Integer) values and negatives, not on Delphi 6, that I'm using, anyway. I wrote an alternative that handles LongInt and negatives. It takes only Integer parameters. It's a function, rather than a

[fpc-devel] DOS problems

2005-04-30 Thread Andres K. Foerster
Hello, I have some trouble with the graph unit on DOS. I use the driver D16Bit, mode m640x480. With FPC 1.9.6 I get only some few lines in the upper part of the screen, the rest stays black. The mode worked with FPC 1.0.10 with the same hardware, so I think it's a bug in the new version. --

[fpc-devel] bugreport: FPC 1.9.8 installer, i386-FreeBSD

2005-04-17 Thread Andres K. Foerster
Hello, I really had trouble installing FPC on FreeBSD. I downloaded the big tar archive and unpacked it. Then I saw the file install.sh there. Because of the file-extension .sh I thought it was a simple shellscript for sh. So I tried to start it with sh install.sh. That didn't work. So I
