I currently have only a few missing symbols, mostly math related: Hint: (11030) Start of reading config file P:\Lazarus\fpc\3.2.2\bin\x86_64-win64\fpc.cfg Hint: (11031) End of reading config file P:\Lazarus\fpc\3.2.2\bin\x86_64-win64\fpc.cfg Warning: (11018) You are using the obsolete switch -St Hint: (11030) Start of reading config file X:\Settings\Lazarus\fpcext.cfg Hint: (11031) End of reading config file X:\Settings\Lazarus\fpcext.cfg Free Pascal Compiler version 3.2.2 [2022/01/02] for x86_64 Copyright (c) 1993-2021 by Florian Klaempfl and others (1002) Target OS: Win64 for x64 (3104) Compiling project1.lpr (9015) Linking Z:\project1.exe Z:\project1.lpr(11,1) Error: Undefined symbol: sin Z:\project1.lpr(11,1) Error: Undefined symbol: cos Z:\project1.lpr(11,1) Error: Undefined symbol: __imp___acrt_iob_func Z:\project1.lpr(11,1) Error: Undefined symbol: sqrt Z:\project1.lpr(11,1) Error: Undefined symbol: pow Z:\project1.lpr(11,1) Error: Undefined symbol: floor Z:\project1.lpr(11,1) Fatal: (10026) There were 6 errors compiling module, stopping Fatal: (1018) Compilation aborted Error: P:\Lazarus\fpc\3.2.2\bin\x86_64-win64\ppcx64.exe returned an error exitcode
The most tricky one seens to be "__imp___acrt_iob_func". A google search indicated that this one apparently is "hard-coded into the Go linker". So my questions are: - Has libchipmunk-win.a been compiled with Go? (I know that in your original message, you wrote about C, but I just want to be sure.) - Have you tried using the Go linker instead of FPCs one? But I will stay with it. ----- Original Message ----- From: Michael Van Canneyt via fpc-pascal <fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org> To: Anthony Walter via fpc-pascal <fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org> Sent: Saturday, August 27, 2022, 11:14:55 Subject: [fpc-pascal] Teaching Kids Using Free Pascal On Sat, 27 Aug 2022, Anthony Walter via fpc-pascal wrote: > Some of you might not be aware, but I teach small groups of kids ages 8-16 > computer programming and digital electronics.

I talked to the chairman of the Free Pascal & Lazarus foundation and showed your mail. The subject of teaching kids how to program in Pascal and in particular using it for math problems is something that is close to his heart (and to mine, as this is exactly how I rolled into Free Pascal a quarter of a century ago). He is also the editor of the Blaise Pascal magazine, and has published a book by a dutch author that combines exactly these subjects: https://www.blaisepascalmagazine.eu/product/books-computer-graphics-math-games-download-pdf/ I explained him your problem, and he agreed that the foundation should assist in trying to solve this problem. Therefore, for all: If someone presents a solution that can be distributed with the compiler & FPC which solves or considerably eases the problem (for instance a glue unit that can be included to provide most of the missing symbols, some compiler routines that aid...), the foundation will add another $200 to the bounty offered by Anthony Walter, subject to his and our approval. Michael. _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org https://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org https://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
