It seams that in the svn tree there are FPC compiler
directives: and it does compile out of the box (except for
two lines of code about help system that is not yet
implemented in FPC)...
Should we update the CCR page so that we point de people
getting the latest code from RO site or SVN tree since the
CCR version is already dated?
Side question: it only works for 32bits architecture; what does it
need to work with 64bits?
?
It will only work for Intel 32-bit since it uses assembler instructions at
some parts. BTW, I though FPC assembler isn't compatible with Delphi one,
maybe Boguslaw fixed that code?
Best thing would be to have compiler defines and rewrite those assembler
instructions as normal Pascal code (would help porting to other CPUs)
Yes,I considered it ...but it's impossible.I've asked fpc developers
about it and in fact stack manipulation is impossible with pure pascal
code.But good news is that there is only a few small parts of code which
need to be in assembler (most of them in uPSRuntime.pas if I good remember)
