Hi,

Currently the FAQ shows Position Independent Code generation is
"currently broken" in the creation of shared libraries, (Future Plans
shows 2.4 working to recover it).  I tried to search the web site but
the search system gives an error right now.

Please, what version did PIC last work in for Linux

PIC works in 2.2.0.

and Windows?

Windows needs no PIC.

Does availability of testing PIC look far off or near future?

Ditto Windows PIC, but for cross platform API integrations, dlls/.so/ELF and (as in wrestling Win/x86 against *Nix /AMD-64). I was chasing some *Nix threading issues in 2.02, when I noted PIC stated in the FAQ, unsure how wide the scope of effect might be. I'm ending up evolving into this from growing success I've had using FPC in simpler related integrations and basically trying to find an escape from sockets as a bridge in some of my current work. I don't really want to fall back on rev levels if waiting on 2.4 might clean up things.

So if PIC in 2.2 is also in question, (not at all trying to rush anyone), does it look like 2.4 will address this any time soon or it's just too soon to know?

Thanks always,
Mike
