Hi, I'm trying to update a set of database components (FBLib) used with tiOPF. In FPC 2.2.0 (32bit linux) everything compiled and worked fine. Today I tried to compile my latest version of FBLib (as is found in tiOPF repository) with FPC 2.4.1 (64bit linux). I don't know if the following problems are related to 32bit -> 64bit switch or because of FPC 2.2.0 -> FPC 2.4.1 switch.
1) First I had the problem that FPC couldn't find 'Libc' unit used in the uses clause. No idea why - maybe Libc unit is only 32bit? Anyway, I replaced 'Libc' in uses clause with 'baseunix' and continued... 2) This got me a bit further, to the code shown below. Is there a baseunix equivalent to Libc.mblen()? Can anybody help me resolve this compilation issue? This URL describes what mblen() does: http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/doc/libc/libc_558.html -------------------------------- function TFBLScript.CStrNextChar(const AStr: PChar): PChar; {$IFDEF UNIX} var CharLen: Integer; {$ENDIF} begin {$IFDEF UNIX} CharLen := Libc.mblen(AStr, MB_CUR_MAX); // <<----- if (CharLen = -1) then CharLen := 1; Result := AStr + CharLen; {$ELSE} Result := CharNext(AStr); {$ENDIF} end; -------------------------------- Regards, - Graeme - -- fpGUI Toolkit - a cross-platform GUI toolkit using Free Pascal http://opensoft.homeip.net/fpgui/ _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
