Hello,

I am trying to compile the latest FPC 2.3 SVN on OS X i386 with CPU_TARGET=powerpc.

The crosscompiling guide on the freepascal web site says to do a: make cycle

But cycle seems to be no longer there, so I tried compiler_cycle and also make all.

Make all and make install both produce this error compiling pkgwget.pp:

Fatal: Can't find unit process used by pkgglobals

How can I fix this?

Thanks.

Tobias Giesen

make cycle only works in the compiler subdirectory.

That's a bug in the current svn sources (which breaks compilation on virtually all platforms), and will probably be fixed somewhere today.

FYI, on windows it breaks earlier:

a -Fisrc/win seems missing.

Should be fixed now.

Hello,

thanks for the new Makefiles! I am now at SVN rev. 8988 and when I enter

cd fpc/compiler
make cycle CPU_TARGET=powerpc

I get:

Makefile:125: *** Compiler ppcrossppc not found. Stop.

I don't know what's happening. In this step, I do not want to crosscompile. I want to _make_ the cross-compiler.

Thanks for any help!!

Cheers,
Tobias

Tell the Makefile explicitly with which compiler you want to start, e.g.

make cycle CPU_TARGET=powerpc FPC=ppc386
