Re: copying gpc built on one machine to another
by ANURADHA Srinivasan 05 Oct '01

05 Oct '01

Hello, I am able to build the zipped gpc binary file and when i run it in another machine , it works. But i would like to add the "sysutils.pas" to the units and the corresponding "*.inc" to say,a separate directory "include" in the build directory and then "mak" the binary. * I am able to add the sysutils to the units directory of the tar.gz file but how do i add the "include" in the binary .tar.gz file?This is the first problem. * Second is , when i gunzip and use it in another directory with this sysutils also zipped,it says "-f-extended-syntax and -Wno-warnings unknown".this doesnot happen when i build the binary without the sysutils added to the units directory. How do i add such files to the tar.gz then?

Dear sir: I've got a problem in running GPC. I really don't know if it is a bug but the fact is that my GPC cannot compile any program. my program is: program er; var a: integer; begin a := 2; writeln(a); end. The reaction of GPC is gpc1.exe: Invalid option `-famtmpfile=e:/djgpp/tmp\ccaaaaaa.gpc' and the version of my GPC is gpc version 19990510, based on gcc-2.8.1 (the file I downloaded is gpc-19990607-djgpp.zip) Please help me to solve the problem. Thank you! yours, Alan Sun

Unit for internationalization (i18n) ANNOUNCEMENT
by Eike Lange 05 Oct '01

05 Oct '01

Welcome to the wonderful world of INTERNATIONALIZATION (i18n). This unit provides the powerful mechanism of national language support by accessing .mo files. It includes: locales (not xlocales, because its just 'draft') and libintl. Actually, there are no tools available, so you have to create your .po files by hand. See documentation for gettext ('info gettext') for details. You can download the actual sources via ftp from: agnes.dida.physik.uni-essen.de/pub/home/lange/ Filename is inter-20011005.tar.gz Missing is a tool for creating .po files out of .pas files (like 'xgettext'). Are YOU interested? 2001-10-05 Eike Lange

Hello, The problem was i had done the configure and make in the source directory. I see the gcc directory after i gave them in build directory. The make pascal.bindist runs fine with GNU tar. It stops with an error saying that it cannot remove the 'tmp' directory.I find that it is the last statement in the makefile for the above command and so am going to use the .gz that's created. Thanks for the support.

gpc-20010924 configure problem
by Pierre Muller 04 Oct '01

04 Oct '01

I am trying to generate a gpc binary for cygwin. For this I downloaded the gpc-20010924.tar.gz sources, as well as the gcc-core-2.95.2.tar.gz from the same ftp server. After unpacking both files, I moved p directory into gcc-2.95.2 dir as stated in the INSTALL file. Then I created a directory called gpc-cygwin-build in gcc-2.95.2 directory, moved into that directory and gave ../configure --enable-languages=pascal as said in the INSTALL. But this did not give the expected result: according to INSTALL the configure script should have asked me if I wanted to patch gcc sources, but the whole configure process ended without any question. The generated Makefile only contained LANGUAGES="c c++" lines.... Did I forget to do something before running configure ? Is this a problem with case sensitiveness of environment variables ? i.e. should I rather use --enable-LANGUAGES=pascal I tried this out, but the main Makefile still looks the same and no file was patched. I don't understand how configure should be aware of the fact that it should patch gcc sources ? All is in the p subdir, but that subdir does not even seem to be read....

Word Alignment Optimization or bug?
by Loris Caren 03 Oct '01

03 Oct '01

The fragment:- module Size; var BoolVar: Boolean; procedure fred; begin BoolVar := True; end; {fred} end. {module} produces the following 68k code (from 20010623). Should the .lcomm line not be .lcomm Boolvar,1, or is the compiler saying that byte alignment is really horrid and is trying to avoid it? .file "size.p" gcc2_compiled.: __gnu_compiled_pascal: .lcomm Boolvar,2 .text .even Fred: link.w %a6,#0 move.b #1,Boolvar .L2: unlk %a6 rts

using locales

Hi! Could you please tell me, how to use locales in GNU-Pascal. Do I have to use an own database for strings, which need to be translated? Is it possible to use i18n files? Eike

Problem with preprocessor conditionals
by Sven Jauring 02 Oct '01

02 Oct '01

Hi all I'm having problem with preprocessor conditionals containing comparisions, eg. "#if X == 4". After the following code has executed, the variable var1 is set to 10,not 15 as I expected. --------------------------- #define X 4 #define Y 1 . . . var1 := 0; #ifdef Y var1 := 10; #endif #if X == 4 var1 := 15; #endif ---------------------------- Should this work as I expect? Best Regards Sven Jauring

Random function
by Jon Marc Zdricolei 02 Oct '01

02 Oct '01

Hi, The following question concerns a friend of mine. As I am not at all familiar with GPC it might seem silly. My friend tries to use the random function like this: " rand := random/exp(31*ln(2)); " When she compiles the program she gets the error " In function 'Rand' : undefined reference to 'Random' ". The question is: is the syntax correct or does GPC support random function? Her program runs correctly on UNIX, however UNIX is not always available, hence she needs to use Linux 7. Unfortunately I don't know what version of GPC is installed. Could you please help? Regards Jon

gpc 20010924 and rts configure
by Theo Carr-Brion 01 Oct '01

01 Oct '01

I am working on UnixWare 7.1.1 with gcc 2.95.3 and gpc 20010924. The rts configure script still does not work detecting the absence of sys_siglist. The variable in the test program has been changed to be volatile but it is still optimised out unless the variable is actually used. Turning optimisation off or returning sys_siglist in the test program both work for me. Theo Carr-Brion
