Hi, I'm looking for a new job and i was looking for a compagny using freepascal. Even on monster.com i didn't found anything. Do you know compagnies using Delphi/FreePascal and hiring ?

RE: [fpc-pascal] Looking for a FreePascal Job
Hi Marc, We are a (small) company located here in Austria. We are doing Billing Solutions for VOIP Systems, and SIP Communication Software - Softphones, Clients, Calloperator Software. We are usig Linux/FPC on serverside, and delphi/fpc clientside. Besides we made electronics, firmware and other customer design solutions. But to not "pollute" the mailinglist - maybe you want to contact me per mail (helmut dot hartl at firmos dot at) and tell me something about you - maybe we can do a project together ?

However, at some point fairly soon, Zeta moves from GCC 2.95 to GCC 4, so a lot of things will break and be in a flux. Haiku would be a better basis, however Haiku is not stable enough to support such a thing. BeOS is your best option currently. On an API level, current Zeta is fairly compatible with BeOS, so a BeOS compiler would work for Zeta.

> But is there such a thing as a free download of beos? BeOS R5 PE - runs from a 500MB virtual partition - http://bebits.com/app/2680 BeOS MAX - installs to a hard disk, a new version is in BETA - http://bebits.com/app/3892 MAX is your best bet. BeOS is quite picky with hardware though. Mainly because it hasn't been commercially developed since 1999/2000. If something doesn't work, it's either because it's not supported, there's some kind of IRQ conflict, you're motherboard is pretending to be "Plug and play" (turn it off if you have the option) or your missing a driver. In the latter case, a quick look on BeBits usually finds whether or not you're in luck. I'd be willing to help someone get the build environment set-up. I can offer advice etc. I don't have an intel BeOS machine at the moment, so I can't help with compilation. All my Be boxes (Mac and BeBox) are PowerPC. As porting FPC to BeOS for PowerPC is impossible, I'll not dwell on that ;-) M ___ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal

It uses Apple's PEF as its binary format, it uses Metrowerks as its C++ compiler (mwcc, mwld et al) and no assembler was ever produced (bar inline assembler.) Without an assembler, or bintools that target PEF, there's simply no way to make FPC work natively. Interestingly, the C++ ABI is the same as the one Apple Mac's use (seemingly) as least with Metrowerks tools. If Metrowerks ever released a Codewarrior MWOB binary objectfile compatible assembler in source form, porting it would be fairly simple and I guess it would make an FPC port more likely. I ran some tests a few years ago, and Metrowerks CW 9 (latest version I have - runs under MacOS X) and Metrowerks CW 6 both produce valid BeOS executables if you use the Be headers and libs (copied to MacOS obviously.) I guess, it's possible to hack a command like assembler from MacOS to work, but I wouldn't like to try to do it... Some kind of compatibility lib might work with *a lot* of work. BeOS for PPC is a dead end though. Not worth the effort. Maybe in my retirement in 30 odd years ;-) M ___ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal

Lol!!! That´s exactly the same problem I faced with the symbian os emulator. What´s wrong with codewarrior? They don´t like to release assemblers??? -- Felipe Monteiro de Carvalho ___ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal

But, with the Apple platform, you had MPW, so that wasn't an issue.
