I'm building with the Win32 1.1 compiler, succesfully built from CVS. However, with every source that I try to compile that lists CLASSES as an unit, the compiler errs:

classes.pp(16,10) Fatal: Can't find unit SYSUTILS

Which is the exact same error I get when I try to recompile the CLASSES unit from CVS manually in the FCL directory.

My sysutils.ppw resides in the units/win32/rtl subdirectory, which is included in the unit path in the ppc386.cfg:

-Fuc:\ppc/units/$TARGET
-Fuc:\ppc/units/$TARGET/*
-Fuc:\ppc/units/$TARGET/rtl

The RTL subdirectory is succesfully included; if I try to compile something that includes, say, the DOS unit, it builds correctly.

Any idea how I can fix this, or where my mistake is?

Did you try to "touch *.*" it up?

Hello,

I know there are several TCP/IP librariesfor FreePascal, but I was wondering if there is a -standard- TCP/IP interface (i.e. one that ships with it). The Reason I ask is that I am developing a TCP/IPinterface binding for Pure Pascal (For Atari) to use the STiK/STiNG/GlueSTiK TCP/IP stack specification (again, on Atari). When FreePascal for Atari becomes usable, I will make sure this library runs under that too. Right now I plan 3 parts:

a.) Direct port of the C API (pretty much done)
b.) Higher level library using A, that supports Pascal strings instead of C strings, simplified forms of most functions with defaults on the extraparams, etc.
c.) An oop library built off of A or b.

Part A is of course specific to this tcp/ipstack, but the higher level libs need not be. It would be nice if i could make them API compatible with another tcp/ip library that works under unix, so that the same apps I write to run under Pure Pascal/Atari/My stik TCPIP lib will work also under FPK/Unix/another TCPIP lib. For example, I am now working (mostly finished) with an AIM compatible program (as none exists on the Atari as of yet). Linux perhaps doesn't need this as badly, as there are C and TCL based clients, but it would be nice if I could make my unit a drop-in replacement so that I could compile the same code both places. Can anyone recommend a unit for me to steal the interface from?

(btw, I plan BSDish source releases for all of my code.)

thanks,

Are you sure it is trying to use the sysutils unit from units/win32/rtl? (use the -vt parameter). The makefiles by default search in a path relative from the the current one (i.e. if you type "make" in "x:\pp\new\compiler", it will use the directory "x:\pp\new\rtl\$target" instead of what you specified in your ppc386.cfg)
