OK, I did not think that make clean should need the compiler in the first place since all it would do is erase all previous compilation artifacts. So I did not add the command line switch FPC. Why need the compiler to erase files??? > >PS: AFAIK, you need to use the previous version official compiler to >build the sources. Meaning for 3.0.4 sources you'll need 3.0.2 and not >3.0.0. At least this is what I do to avoid to use the override >directive. Well my read is that 3.0.0 should be used for *all* 3.x builds... And I had symlinked the 3.0.0 version of ppcx64 into ~/bin, but I had some problems making that work too. After I compiled 3.0.4 I change the symlink to point to the new version 3.0.4 Adding FPC=~/bin/ppcx64 as a command line argument to make fixed it all. Maybe I should recompile 3.0.4 with itself in true Wirth spirit? -- Bo Berglund Developer in Sweden ___ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
[fpc-pascal] Building FPC from sources on Linux Mint 19, make clean errors out
I have jsut createda virtual Linux Mint 19 x86_64 machine on which I attempted to install FPC 3.0.4 and Lazarus 1.8.5 (the fixes branch). I got as far as: - FPC 3.0.0 seed compiler downloaded - FPC 3.0.4 sources retrieved via svn - Lazarus 1.8.5 sources retrieved via svn I went into the ~/dev/fpc/3.0.4 dir and issued make clean expecting not very much activity. But what I got surprised me: ~/dev/fpc/3.0.4$ make clean make: -iVSPTPSOTO: Command not found /bin/rm -f build-stamp.* /bin/rm -f base.build-stamp.* As far as I can remember I have not been requested to add any other argument to this command before (I have built FPC/Lazarus on a number of different Linux machine using the exact same procedure). What does this mean and what can I do to fix it? Does it need to be fixed? -- Bo Berglund Developer in Sweden ___ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal

[fpc-pascal] Constants in generics
I implemented a first draft of constants (integers) in generics. My reason was
specifically that I wanted a way to add methods to static arrays and generic
records is the only way to accomplish this AFAIK.
If I fix this up will it be considered as a patch? I wanted to present the idea
first before I spent any more time. Here’s what I has so far (on GitHub).
https://github.com/genericptr/freepascal/commit/ec518542b2da7d7f016702a82b2d05349a01a6fb
{$mode objfpc}
{$modeswitch advancedrecords}
program generic_constants;
type
generic TList = record
list: array[0..U-1] of T;
function capacity: integer;
end;
function TList.capacity: integer;
begin
result := U;
end;
var
nums: specialize TList;
strs: specialize TList;
begin
writeln('sizeof:',sizeof(nums), ' capacity:',nums.capacity);
writeln('sizeof:',sizeof(strs), ' capacity:',strs.capacity);
end.
