Hello, i'm a beginner at MinGW and Pascal and i've downloaded and searched through the archived mailbox fo a long time but i found no solution. And generally i find no useful information for setting up mingw and gpc. I wanted to use the latest gpc snapshop and so downloaded the corresponding mingw files. I used the candidate ones that the MinGW 5.0.2 installation program because these are the only ones wich have gcc 3.4.4 wich is the latest gpc snapshot is based. So the files i installed in C:\MinGW are these: These were downloaded by MinGW 5.0.2 installation program mingw-runtime-3.8.tar.gz w32api-3.5.tar.gz binutils-2.16.91-20050827-1.tar.gz gcc-core-3.4.4-20050522-1.tar.gz gcc-g++-3.4.4-20050522-1.tar.gz gcc-g77-3.4.4-20050522-1.tar.gz gcc-ada-3.4.4-20050522-1.tar.gz gcc-java-3.4.4-20050522-1.tar.gz gcc-objc-3.4.4-20050522-1.tar.gz mingw32-make-3.80.0-3.tar.gz Theses i downloaded from MinGW.org download page in the current section: gdb-5.2.1-1.exe mingw-utils-0.3.tar.gz These from gnu-pascal.de: gpc-20051116.i386-pc-mingw32.tar.gz pdcurs24.beta-i386-pc-mingw32.zip gmp-2.0.2-i386-pc-mingw32.zip rx-1.5-i386-pc-mingw32.zip I found no other MinGW setupinformation than putting C:\MinGW\bin to the path. I already know that with the --automake --autobuild options because without these i got the "module/unit interface `GPC' could not be imported" error. But with one of these options i get the error listed in the subject line. Here is the output for "gpc -v --autobuild statfsdemo.pas -o statfsdemo.exe" wich is a demo program from the doc\gpc\demos directory: C:\MinGW\doc\gpc\demos>gpc -v --autobuild statfsdemo.pas -o statfsdemo.exe Reading specs from C:/MINGW/BIN/../lib/gcc/mingw32/3.4.4/specs Configured with: ../configure --with-gcc --with-gnu-ld --with-gnu-as --host=mingw32 --target=mingw32 --prefix=/mingw --enable-threads --disable-nls --enable-languages=pascal --disable-win32-registry --disable-shared --enable-sjlj-exceptions --without-x --enable-interpreter --enable-hash-synchronization Thread model: win32 gpc version 20051116, based on gcc-3.4.4 (mingw special) C:/MINGW/BIN/../libexec/gcc/mingw32/3.4.4/gpc1.exe -quiet -v -iprefix C:\MINGW\BIN\../lib/gcc/mingw32/3.4.4/ statfsdemo.pas -quiet -dumpbase statfsdemo.pas -auxbase statfsdemo -famtmpfile=C:\WINDOWS\TEMP/ccbxkigb.gpa -fautobuild -version -o C:\WINDOWS\TEMP/ccWldggb.s GNU Pascal version 20051116, based on gcc-3.4.4 (mingw special) (mingw32) compiled by GNU C version 3.4.4 (mingw special).

I remember, when i tried to learn c years ago (i tried to learn pascal with turbo pascal 6.0 12 years ago), that for emx (yes, the os/2 box is still lying around here) i had to setup many environment variables for the include and library pathes so that i was able to run it. I now compiled gpc.pas by hand and copied all files (.o, .gpi etc.) in the demos directory and it worked doing the commandline above. Can some hacker point me to the solution? I don't think that i have an broken installation. Befor this constellation i used different mingw's with nearly all gpc incarnations from gnu-pascal and mingw but this with this one i came at least to an exe file.
