[fpc-pascal] MS DOS 8086 compiler?

2013-04-27 Thread Reinier Olislagers 
Noticed that an 8086 branch was merged to fpc trunk. Is it time to get
out some 5.25" diskettes[1]?

[1] Shame I dumped all the accompanying hardware long ago ;) Perhaps
break out DOSBOX ;)

I still have a portable (ahum, > 5 kg) IBM XT with 5.25" floppy disk.
HD is appr. 10 MB (decaying...)
Problem of course wil be to get the compiler on the floppy disks, and
then hope my HD is large enough.

(It cost about 10,000 Dfl (appr 4,500 € / $ 5000) at the time of purgase.)

The compiler itself doesn't run on the Dos real mode target, and probably never 
will due to memory limitations.

[fpc-pascal] PopCount

2013-04-27 Thread reyno 
Unfortunately, for POPCNT assembler, SSE 4.2 is required. For older 
CPUs, after some tests, I'd finally recommend


function CShift(ANum : QWord) : Cardinal;
var
  n1, n2 : QWord;
begin
  n1 := ANum - (ANum shr 1 and $);
  n2 := (n1 and $) + (n1 shr 2 and $);
  Result :=
(((n2 + (n2 shr 4)) and $0f0f0f0f0f0f0f0f) * $0101010101010101) shr 56;
end;

What do you do, when it comes to fast pop. counts on vintage CPUs?

The "official" alternative, provided with FPC 2.7.1, seems ca. 10 x 
slower. Did I grab the wrong version?


Is there a even better solution?

you can't delete it from everywhere...

eg: systems that download this _mailing_list_ as separate emails into whatever 
mail reading tool is used...

 From the SendSpace yes. Try to download it now. ;)


what "SendSpace"?? i've never heard of it... the code came in /inside/ your 
posting... [time passes] there was a link to the code in your post, yes... but 
you also posted the actual code, too...[/time passes]


my example explicitly points to local storage in a email client, as well... if 
you or anyone can delete posts from my local email storage from remote, i'd 
definitely like to know about it :P
