Here's about the simplest case I can come up with quickly ... test5.p ======= program test_class; type tcomp=packed record name:string[80]; class:1..15; end; var comp:tcomp; begin end.

Yes, I've scanned it rapidly - I didn't find any mention of 'class' there (which is why I asked if there was anything else I might trip over), but I could easily have missed it. -- David James mailto:david@tcs01.demon.co.uk Special Stage Rally results archive <URL:http://www.tcs01.demon.co.uk/>

Is there a problem with the FTP server on agnes.dida.physik.uni-essen.de (assuming I have the name right)? I've been unable to connect to it with FTP yeterday or today. -- David James mailto:david@tcs01.demon.co.uk Special Stage Rally results archive <URL:http://www.tcs01.demon.co.uk/>

posix calls like crypt
by jamie 04 Mar '01

04 Mar '01

Hey, Just wondering if GPC supports standard unix things like crypt() I've found GPC to be great for doing little utils under solaris, and the ability to use stuff like crypt() and chown() would be very nice. Thanks Jamie

units
by Peter Ulrich Kruppa 04 Mar '01

04 Mar '01

Hello, here a beginner's question: Let us say I wrote two units: unit1 unit2 and there is a procedure called HelloWorld in each of them. May I call them by unit1.HelloWorld; unit2.HelloWorld; or is that not supported by gpc? What should I do in the last case? Thanks for your answer.

compiling gcc/gpc on AIX
by Christopher Ferrall 03 Mar '01

03 Mar '01

I have been attempting to compile gpc on AIX. I encounter this error: ld: 0711-781 ERROR: TOC overflow. TOC size: 67804 Maximum size: 65536 collect2: ld returned 12 exit status Apparently this problem is known, because gcc/p/Makefile includes: # f771 and cc1plus overflow the AIX TOC BOOT_LDFLAGS=-Wl,-bbigtoc and "-bbigtoc" is the ld option that relaxes the TOC limit. I can't find BOOT_LDFLAGS referenced anywhere below its definition. Could this be the problem? Thanks --Chris Ferrall P.S: Thank you, thank you, thank you for continuing to develop GNU Pascal. I had dreaded the thought of quitting Pascal because the demise of AIX Pascal was starting limit my work. It appears GPC might allow me to carry on - if I could get it installed.

Compiling Problem
by CloseBSD 02 Mar '01

Hello I am under Windows 98 and I have installed GPC at the same time that DJGPP with the install.exe tools from www.delorie.com I have changed djgpp.env as indicated in the GPC FAQ, but, when I try to compile I have got an error message : pc -o test test.pas the result is : D:/DJGPP/BIN/ld.exe: cannot open linker script file djgpp.djl: No such file or directory (ENOENT) I have checked and the ld.exe is in the bin directory What can i do to solve the problem ? Thanks.

RE: Does anyone have . . .
by Oldham, Adam 02 Mar '01

Well, the truth is, I need this source, but I am not going to use it. As you may have read in my previous posts, I am porting from an old compiler/platform. 1 1/2 years ago when this port was being looked at, my boss modified the compiler that was current then (the source that I am inquiring about). But now he can't remember what he changed in the compiler, I think he may have just commented some of the reserved words out so we won't have problems because some of our 1000s of variables are reserved words (xor is one example). Anyway, I need to take the source he changed and diff it with the original source so I can see what he changed and hopefully get going on this project again. Just thought I'd give a little explanation :) Adam -----Original Message----- From: Peter Gerwinski [mailto:peter@gerwinski.de] Sent: Thursday, March 01, 2001 5:03 PM To: 'gpc(a)gnu.de' Subject: Re: Does anyone have . . .

It's in ftp://agnes.dida.physik.uni-essen.de/gnu-pascal/beta/. But are you sure that you do not want the current source instead? If you are using gpc-19990118 now, it might be that the current GPC solves a big part of the problems you currently encounter.

enumerated types problem/question
by Oldham, Adam 28 Feb '01

28 Feb '01

First, I want to apologize for bombarding the list with some bad questions. I have been thrown on this job porting Pascal code from one platform/compiler to Linux/GPC and I am having a tough time with it. I am not sure exactly if this is a problem, or a feature of GPC, or a code problem on my end. In a nutshell, I have a makefile that runs through and compiles (but not links) Pascal source into the object files. I have fixed many inconsistencies between the compilers so far.... but this one is a bit stranger. So far it compiles source files fine up to one where I get this error: phileif.pas:1102: incompatible type for argument 1 of `Getcurlangphrase' This function is being called as such: GetCurLangPhrase(Asterisk, 2, AddrType(@SearchStr)); The Prototype for the function is: PROCEDURE GetCurLangPhrase( Phrase_Id : eSysMessages; Buf_Size : INTEGER; Phrase_Buf : AddrType ); And lastly eSysMessages is an enumerated type containing Asterisk from the call. OK.... The Function is declared in a file called sysutl.pas, eSysMessages is in a global.pas, and the call of GetCurLangPhrase is in phileif.pas. Now, sysutl compiles to object code with no errors or warnings as does global. And phileif.pas USES both global and sysutl with the UNITs being defined correctly. This compiles with an old non-standard compiler, but doesn't with GPC and I can't figure it out for the life of me. The odd thing is, I can comment the line out, and this will happen for other function calls where a value in an enumerated type sits in a function call. Has anyone seen anything like this? Or does USES work differently with gpc than with other compilers? Thanks for any help! Adam Oldham Wishing he knew more about Pascal at this point. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- C. Adam Oldham Marconi Commerce Systems Inc.
