[fpc-pascal] How to auto create the $fpctarget directory
Hi, How can I auto create the $fpctarget directory? Just specifying ../lib/$fpctarget/ and then compiling the project doesn't create the needed directory, and I get the following build error. I gather the compiler itself doesn't create directories at all. Could this become an option? Alternatively, is there some why I can query the $fpctarget and then in the build scripts for Linux, Windows and *BSD create the correct output paths, because I actually start the compile?

Yeah, that would be really nice! :-) Regards, - Graeme - ___ fpGUI - a cross-platform Free Pascal GUI toolkit http://opensoft.homeip.net/fpgui/ ___ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal

The unit output directory of the project is auto created by the IDE since 16284. Do you mean the output directory of the binary? > > Alternatively, is there some why I can query the $fpctarget > > and then in the build scripts for Linux, Windows and *BSD create the > > correct output paths, because I actually start the compile? > > echo `fpc -iTP`-`fpc -iTO` gives the same string for $fpctarget, i > think. i also think the compiler should auto create the output > directories.

It's the unit output directory. I know it Lazarus it works perfectly (smile), but it's when you compile a fresh checkout of fpGUI from the command line that it fails. I managed to update the build.sh script for unix type OS's, using Henry's example. It now creates the unit output directory if it doesn't exist. I don't know windows batch files very well (or at least haven't done it in years), so need to read up a bit on how I can do the same there. Either way, I still think it would be handy if the compiler can create the directories as needed.
