Hi List,

Seem to be having some problems compiling FPC trunk r21192 x86 windows (see below).
However, x64 build does work.

Is this a known problem?
Should I keep pestering the list with these kinds of mails (I can put them up in the bugtracker or just wait and be patient as well ;) What's the answer to the question of life, the universe and everything?

Thanks,
Reinier

In our previous episode, Reinier Olislagers said:

Hygiene. Make a simple batch file that recursively zaps all .o and .a and .ppu.

If you encounter problems, run the batchfile, and then update (to restore a few .o that actually belong in SVN). Only then start to look into detail.

Oh yes, of course, the interesting case of make clean that... doesn't. One would say I'd have to know better by now. Sounds like some more work on fpcup then... so my forgetting again won't matter ;)

Meanwhile:
del *.o /s
del *.a /s
del *.ppu /s
rem fpcup will do an svn up, make all etc...
fpcup --fpcURL="http://svn.freepascal.org/svn/fpc/trunk" ...and some more arguments...
worked...

Thanks,
Reinier
