I am having problems, even when I follow the win32 HOWTO.
1) Installed v12 of win32 into c:\pp
2) Installed snapshot into c:\pp
3) moved ppc386.exe to \pp\bin\win32
4) edited ppc386w.cfg to point to \pp not \ppw
5) set envir vars
6) login to cvs
7) deleted v12 \pp\source\compiler & rtl
8) checked out base rtl compiler utils gtk fcl docs lazarus
9) made dir \pp\source\units\win32
10) copied base\makefile.fpc to \pp\source
11) did the make below

C:\PP\SOURCE>set path=d:\progra~1\gnu\wincvs
1.1;c:\pp\bin\win32;c:\pp\gtkdll

C:\PP\SOURCE>set

C:\PP\SOURCE>set homedrive=d:

I've been at this for hours, anybody want to help me?

I have a pre built packaged solution on my web site some place just trying to remember the name of it.

This contains some old lazarus code and the contents of the pp directory all setup for win32. All that is necessary is to unzip it in c:\pp...

This is a week old so all you need to do is install that and then overwrite the units with and compiler with a snapshot. If I get a chance I will rebuild this package again tonight. It makes win32 setup a snap..

I am working on rev 0.2 of the Howto. It shouldn't take long. Cleaning up the rebuild batch file and making some simplifications to the directory tree. Should be out in about half an hour.

A good idea for newbie like me in lazarus would to add an tree of components, it will help to understand to all think as a all. I'm quite sre that there is some variation from the Delphi one.

I am giving up on this win32 stuff. I just installed it on a P75 box running Windows 98 and everything is OK (just to da## slow). I am running NT on my PII450, and win32 just does not want to "make".

You can also use the go32v2 compiler and the win32 rtl/fcl to compile for win32 targets

I looked at the makefile.fpc. I found fpc_info so I tried it. I got

Try only 'make VERBOSE=1' in /pp/source/win32 that will give some move info about what got wrong with compile objpas unit

I looked at the makefile.fpc. I found fpc_info so I tried it. I got weird results for ECHO or SED.

Any Help?

I haven't tried it on Win32 yeet. Cliff got it to work though.

Pull the binary for FPC instead of trying to build it otherwise. Shane
