I have to use:

C:\FPC\2.2.2\bin\i386-win32\strip.exe --strip-all D:\FreePascal\Projects\Test\Project1.exe,
anything else fails.

In my Dutch version here, after compling is on the top position in that compiler tab which is in fact before compling
Probably a translation bug.

After compling, I got "Oeps - debugger crash".

Ayway, the size was still 1116 kb for and empty program (button and a label) and the limit for my full program (Delphi) is 1 Mb
There's still a long way to go ..

This won't get smaller unless you use UPX. So maybe you need to search another tool or framework (KOL) if you want smaller size.

For Windows, it's not a problem (Delphi program), but I want it for WinCE and I have the same restrictions there.


You cannot have both: a small size without debug info *and* a working debugger.

So you have to make up your mind:
A: an executable that can be started with the debugger: enable the debugging options (-g or -gl) and disable stripping (-Xs) in the linking tab

or

B: an executable that has a small size and can be released: disable all debugging options (-g, -gl, -gh) and enable string (-Xs) in the linking tab.
