[fpc-pascal] PIC returns in 2.4?
Hi, Currently the FAQ shows Position Independent Code generation is "currently broken" in the creation of shared libraries, (Future Plans shows 2.4 working to recover it). I tried to search the web site but the search system gives an error right now. Please, what version did PIC last work in for Linux and Windows? Does availability of testing PIC look far off or near future? Thanks always, Mike ___ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal

Why isn'tlpStrFile := PWChar(FileNameWide); simply enough ? IMO, you're copying way to much. That variable is only valid on the scope of the function, and we need something more permanent. I need to review the code in that area, imo it is not needed. anyway when is the allocateed memory freed ?

I tried to search the web site but the search system gives an error right now. Please, what version did PIC last work in for Linux PIC works in 2.2.0. and Windows? Windows needs no PIC. Does availability of testing PIC look far off or near future? Ditto Windows PIC, but for cross platform API integrations, dlls/.so/ELF and (as in wrestling Win/x86 against *Nix /AMD-64). I was chasing some *Nix threading issues in 2.02, when I noted PIC stated in the FAQ, unsure how wide the scope of effect might be. I'm ending up evolving into this from growing success I've had using FPC in simpler related integrations and basically trying to find an escape from sockets as a bridge in some of my current work. I don't really want to fall back on rev levels if waiting on 2.4 might clean up things. So if PIC in 2.2 is also in question, (not at all trying to rush anyone), does it look like 2.4 will address this any time soon or it's just too soon to know?

I don't know if windows frees it, probably not. Also, I don't know if DestroyHandle for dialogs is called always after closing, so there are questions and this may be a point of memory leak. -- Felipe Monteiro de Carvalho ___ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal

Which would be activated by -WR as described on the item 3 here: http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/FPC_and_Apache_Modules#Possible_problems I didn't test multiple apache modules with newer fpc versions, but that could be a problem. -- Felipe Monteiro de Carvalho ___ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal

No. PIC allows only to map the same physical mem page with program code at different virtual memory locations. > Which would be activated by > -WR as described on the item 3 here: > > http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/FPC_and_Apache_Modules#Possible_problems > > I didn't test multiple apache modules with newer fpc versions, but > that could be a problem. > ___ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
