[Lazarus] Run FPC on Raspberry Pi3 in command line mode

2016-10-28 Thread Ken Kashmarek via Lazarus
I have been runing FPC v3 on Windows 7 from a command line window. The Windows 7 version of the IDE sucks. I want to run FPC v3 on my Raspberry Pi3 the same way, from a command line window (not the GUI IDE interface). Is that possible? I found everything for starting the IDE but not for startin

[Lazarus] FPC on Rpi3 executable module sizes

2016-10-30 Thread Ken Kashmarek via Lazarus
I have a group of programs that compile using FPC on Windows 7. I have ported those programs over to my RPi3 and they all compile fine. On Windows 7, the executable files are significantly smaller (less 100K) than those from the IDE on RPi3 (all 400K & larger). There may be ways to reduce these

I used Bo Berglund's script to install FPC (including Lasarus) on my RPi3. That script is long and complicated and making changes to it would be in his domain. I suspect there are some issues with any options dealing with smart linking and debug symbols. I hope he gets a chance to review the scri

[Lazarus] Quad precision library for Free Pascal

2016-11-18 Thread Ken Kashmarek via Lazarus
Does anyone know of or have implemented a quad precision (128-bit) library for Free Pascal. I see there are some available for C or GCC but not Free Pascal directly. Your feedback is appreciated Ken -- View this message in context: http://free-pascal-lazarus.989080.n3.nabble.com/Quad-precisi

I have solved the problem with modules sizes when compiled under Lazarus FPC 3.0.0 on RPi3. First, I am able to perform scripted compile and link operations (ie, not done via the IDE). Next, by adding the -XX parameter to the compile/link script file, that is: fpc -XX sourcefile.pas the r
