In fact I filed a bug today which was related. Notice how I didn't use cdecl in the program but another user tried to compile and had problems with cdecl also. https://gitlab.com/freepascal.org/fpc/source/-/issues/40342 <https://gitlab.com/freepascal.org/fpc/source/-/issues/40342#note_1462402401> Basically this program: {$mode objfpc} program test; function printf(format: PChar): Integer; external; cdecl; varargs;
You must put the cdecl (which is the calling convention) before the external: {$linklib c} function printf(format: PChar): Integer; cdecl; external; varargs; begin printf('%d is the answer'#10,42) end. Will work and will print 42 is the answer Michael. _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org https://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
