[fpc-pascal]crosscompiling problems with ld(w) from binutils-2.1.4
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hello everybody, this is my first posting here, so please be paitient with me ;) In 99% of the time I'm using linux, and therefore I'm writing my prgroms for linux. Lately more and more windoze using friends ask me, if I could give them my programs. And as those programs don't have much platform dependent codings it was not a problem to compile them using fpc1.0.10 on the installed win98. But as I was bored to reboot my linux, just to compile a program, I started looking for cross-compiling utils. I've downloadet GNU binutils 2.1.4 and configured them with the "--target=winnt" option. Compilation worked just fine, and for test purposes I symlinkd as-new, ld-new to asw and ldw. For the first test I took hello-world, but it worked only partly :( Below I've included the compiler output and the part from fpcdebug.txt, which deals with the error. Can anybody help me? thx in advance Tobias Compiler output: > fpc -Twin32 -FDtmp/binutils/bin -V hello.pas Free Pascal Compiler version 1.0.10 [2003/06/26] for i386 Copyright (c) 1993-2003 by Florian Klaempfl Target OS: Win32 for i386 Compiling hello.pas Linking hello.exe tmp/binutils/bin/ldw: invalid BFD target `base.$$$' hello.pas(4,1) Error: Error while linking Closing script ppas.sh The last lines of fpcdebug.txt dealing with ldw: 0008:Using util tmp/binutils/bin/ldw 0010:tmp/binutils/bin/ldw -s -b base.$$$ -o hello.exe link.res 0002:hello.pas(4,1) Error: Error while linking - -- http://tobias.d.bei.t-online.de/ -=- PGP User ID: 0x825CE007 -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE/J5ajZGcehYJc4AcRAikRAJ47SeSL8UcwJnwra7vPAwKRDaWG2gCeO5ec rep0bhpAhmKGjjLsR8JH1jw= =/h5E -END PGP SIGNATURE- ___ fpc-pascal maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal

In reply to your message of July 30, 2003 > 0008:Using util tmp/binutils/bin/ldw > 0010:tmp/binutils/bin/ldw -s -b base.$$$ -o hello.exe link.res > 0002:hello.pas(4,1) Error: Error while linking Was there a copy of the hello.exe program running at that time? I get that error all the time, when I forget to exit after testing or a program doesn't exit completely. - L D Blake ___ fpc-pascal maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal

No, there wasn't any. I just wrote up the four lines from hello-world and tried to compile it. Actually there isn't any hello.exe jet ;) so long Tobias - -- http://tobias.d.bei.t-online.de/ -=- PGP User ID: 0x825CE007 -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE/J+RFZGcehYJc4AcRAnVYAJ4nc62NVzMI3jLy+B6A3+MDK50MugCeLXDP Jyi9YOvPm/VNDTyBqZshi8M= =n86A -END PGP SIGNATURE- ___ fpc-pascal maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal

Actually there isn't any hello.exe jet ;) It could be that there is some mingw extension to ld, which is missing in the "ordinary" ld. However I don't know that much about Windows' formats. ___ fpc-pascal maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal

> But as I was bored to reboot my linux, just to compile a program... I feel your pain :-o Another option, maybe to think about: I have had *some* success running ppc386.exe under WINE, although it doesn't seem to find all of its units properly. So I had to put all of the binaries and units required to run ppc386.exe in the same directory - ~/fake_windows/pp/ or wherever. This is not exactly a perfect solution, but it beats having to reboot into windows everytime I want to try a piece of cross-platform code. - Jeff __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
