StringUtils, FileUtils
by Frank Heckenbach 31 May '02

31 May '02

Hi, in the current GPC version, I've included a StringUtils unit for general string handling routines (on a higher level than the built-in and RTS routines). Up to now, it only contains routines for a string hash table, but I'm planning to add some more routines. Perhaps some of you also have some routines to contribute (or features to request). Conditions for inclusion into this unit should be, IMHO: - Generally useful (not meant specifically for a certain program or something), - self-… [View More]

Hi This is always the most difficult part! I am porting a very old Pascal program written originally in Prospero Pro-Pascal and I want to use a (relatively) platform independent compiler. Hence gpc. So a few questions - I have already searched in the info pages (aka the 400+ page manual) and found the answers to some of my questions but: 1 A simple program like: program t(Input,Output); var s:string[20]; begin read(s); writeln(s); end. when compiled (and it works) still gives a … [View More]

using C routines in pascal
by Nathalie Jarosz 27 Nov '00

27 Nov '00

Hello all, Is someone could help me about using C routines in pascal? I think I am close to the right solution but I can't manage to get it!... So I will try to summurize all I made until now... At first, I have downloaded randlibc-1.3.tar.gz. After having unpacked this file, a randlib.c directory was created and it contains: HOWTOGET* README* doc/ src/ test/ In src, I have compiled com.c, linpack.c and randlib.c and put them in a library lirandlib.a Then, I have … [View More]

Recent gpc alpha releases fail to build on linux archs other i386/m68k

[Sent this report to Peter in private, but he may be busy with the German LinuxTag?] Currently gpc does not bootstrap with gcc-2.95.2 on Linux (glibc-2.1.94) on architectures other than i386 and m68k. This report is from the alpha arch. ../.././xgcc -B/usr/alpha-linux/bin/ -B../.././ -I/usr/alpha-linux/include -c -I. -W -Wall -Wpointer-arith -Wwrite-strings -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -g -O2 -DRTS_RELEASE_STRING="'`cat /src/gcc/2.95.2-16/gcc-2.95.2/src-native/gcc/p/rts/rts-… [View More]

I remeber someone else having the same problem, but I can't find it in my archive. From memory I think someone had untarred GPC onto to wrong directory so the LIBRARY_PATH symbol was pointing to the wrong place and the linker looking in the wrong place - I don't know enough about GPC to be any more helpfull, but I'm sure someone else who reads this will. ---------- From: Winand Renkema Sent: 31 October 2000 16:44 To: gpc(a)gnu.de Subject: RE: Problems installing On Tue, 31 Oct 2000, J … [View More]

division by zero
by Sven Sahle 31 Oct '00

31 Oct '00

Hi, I just came across the following problem: In a program for numerical computations I use constants for variables with a fixed value because I hope the compiler can produce faster code then. This gives me compiletime errors (division by zero) in code like that: *********************************** CONST a=0; VAR b: double; BEGIN IF a<>0 THEN b:=10/a; END. *********************************** I tried to look this up in the extended pascal standard and found … [View More]

I've downloaded the GNU-pascal compiler and installed it correctly. The compiler works fine but if i want to use units in a program, i get a lot 'undefind reference' errors. Can anyone help me??? I'm using Suse Linux 6.4 on a dual-pentium 90Mhz with kernel 2.2.14-SMP Thanks, Leon
