Hi, after quite some time I thought to give FPC another try to see if it's a suitable replacement for Kylix.
My goal is to be able to cross-compile Linux elf targets from win32. So I downloaded and installed 1.9.6, and after that added the units packages for Linux. Run up FP, compiled hello world, worked. Switched the target in FP to linux, compiled again - and wow, it also worked. Using the verbose output I could even see it using the Linux units etc. All fine. Until I examined the generated executable "hello". It looks like it's a Linux binary packed into a PE file. Very weird. Doesn't run under Linux of course, and does nothing under Windows. Next attempt was to use fpc directly: C:\pp\demo\text>fpc -Aelf hello.pp Free Pascal Compiler version 1.9.6 [2004/12/31] for i386 Copyright (c) 1993-2004 by Florian Klaempfl Target OS: Win32 for i386 Compiling hello.pp Linking hello.exe 31 Lines compiled, 0.4 sec Well, no. Some advise on what to do would be very welcome. Thanks, Simon _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
