Put that in the "unit directory" path in " options -> directories" and have the asterisk behind it (so like the second -Fu line above) . IOW, the IDE has its own settings (_AND_ its own compiler, it is built in), and fpc.cfg is irrelevant inside the IDE. > but I don't know where the variable fpctarget is initialised, I assume > in fp but cant find it.

Lazarus needs it for its codetools. They can't use the precompiled units yet for this. _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
