Hi From several days I've try to make all fpc myself, but to do this under WIN98 is not so clear that it can be. I've found some bugs in makefile, and somebody may change FPCM to be generated proper MAKEFILE
What is proper? Windows is so broken for command line support, we try to support it as best as possible, but not to make it work less under the unix platforms.
my 4 suggestion:
--------1-------- /* current MAKEFILE ifdef PWD BASEDIR:=$(subst \,/,$(shell $(PWD))) ifdef inCygWin ifneq ($(findstring /cygdrive/,$(BASEDIR)),) BASENODIR:=$(patsubst /cygdrive%,%,$(BASEDIR)) BASEDRIVE:=$(firstword $(subst /, ,$(BASENODIR))) BASEDIR:=$(subst /cygdrive/$(BASEDRIVE)/,$(BASEDRIVE):/,$(BASEDIR)) endif endif else BASEDIR=. endif /** in last line change to ..,like FPCDIR BASEDIR=c:/pp
Why? Fixing it to c:/pp is also not good. And it means that PWD is not installed so it should already give an error.
--------2----------- /* current MAKEFILE ifdef INSTALL_FPCPACKAGE INSTALL_BASEDIR:=/pp /* I change to .., but I don't know, how it be under Linux INSTALL_BASEDIR:=c:/pp
Why fix it to c:/ ?
------------3-------------- please remove line: override DEFAULT_FPCDIR=.. because it can't be pass from command line f.e: 'make all DEFAULT_FPCDIR=c:\fp'
This is taken from the Makefile.fpc and is only used to be able to build the tree without needing FPCDIR set.
--------4-----------
ifdef DEFAULT_FPCDIR ifeq ($(FPCDIR),wrong) override FPCDIR:=$(subst \,/,$(DEFAULT_FPCDIR)) ifeq ($(wildcard $(addprefix $(FPCDIR)/,rtl units)),) override FPCDIR=wrong endif endif endif /* change to : ifdef DEFAULT_FPCDIR override FPCDIR:=$(subst \,/,$(DEFAULT_FPCDIR)) endif
Why remove the safety check? There must be a rtl or units dir else your installation is broken.
