Hi,

What the value of the $fpcversion in FPC 2.6.0? Is 2.5.1?

I need to configure my fpc.cfg (I generate this file with ) on Linux, but the value of this directive return 2.5.1, and my dirs are 2.6.0.

Source code of my script to install the FPC 2.6.0: http://pastebin.com/xhQQ0fSL

How to I configure the $fpcversion to return 2.6.0?

Thx.

Yep.

I had the same "problem" so, you must to use a hardcode in your fpc.cfg.

I think that is not possible.

You should just ask the fpc executable for the version number.

But he wants to write the fpc.cfg file... with macros.

Let him write with macros, then he doesn't need to know the actual version number. IOW, I don't understand the problem.

Vincent

He is using the fixes_2_6 and created a directory 2.6.0. But the real version is 2.5.1 so, the fpc.cfg is searching for 2.5.1 not 2.6.0.

He should not create a 2.6.0 directory for the fixes_2_6 branch.

So I must create a directory 2.5.1 while using 2.6.0?

Version 2.6.0 does not exist. 2.5.1 does. How difficult can it be to query compiler version?

In order for macros to work properly compiler version should match directory name. Alternatively you can avoid using macros in fpc.cfg.

I create fpc.cfg automatically with "sudo /usr/lib/fpc/2.6.0/samplecfg /usr/lib/fpc/2.6.0/ /etc", I did not want to modify the file fpc.cfg manually.

I think I'll have to use the directory 2.5.1. :/ ...

ps. samplecfg accepts param? E.g.: "sudo /usr/lib/fpc/2.6.0/samplecfg -fpcversion=2.6.0 /usr/lib/fpc/2.6.0/ /etc", to use 2.6.0 instead of $fpcversion in fpc.cfg.

Use the /2.5.1 directory.

Use the /2.5.1 directory. Marcos Douglas

Yes. Solved! :)

I changed the description of my scrip to not confuse the users:

...
"Automated installation v1.1
for install Lazarus(trunk)/FPC(fixes 2.6.0)"
...

I'll also edit the entry I made in the wiki.

Thxs to all.

ps. sorry for my confusion. ^^"

He is not using 2.6.0 yet... 2.6.0 has not been released yet. If you are on Linux simply create a symlink directory with 2.5.1 in the mean time.
