Using FPC 2.7.1

In lazregions.pas there are several ifdef's on the fpc version that go upto 2.6. Since you use 2.7.1 they fail. Add 2.7 to the ifdefs or use fpc 2.4.4/ 2.6.0. Officially lazarus compiles only what latest fpc release version.

But not officially lazarus compiles with svn trunk _head_ .

And LATEST(!!) trunk.

Latest trunk fails on 2.7.1. Trunk used to work on 2.7.1 (e.g. 32573). That's a trifle inconvenient on a platform where there have been CG fixes since 2.4/2.6.

Lazarus subversion works in the very latest FPC trunk. Your fpc 2.7.1 is too old and no longer supported. You need to update your FPC.

The most common cause for this kind of requirement are changes in fcl-image, which prompts Lazarus to update itself to better use the new fcl-image capabilities. I think we are almost done with fcl-image changes, I can only think only about WindowOrg as a basic missing part in fcl-image now.

It does not fail, because otherwise the 2.7.1 snapshots in ftp://ftp.hu.freepascal.org/pub/lazarus/snapshots/ would not have been created (also I tested it manually on my system). You need to use at least revision 19852 of FPC otherwise the compilation will indeed fail. [and if you compile Lazarus on a 64-bit system with a 64-bit compiler that was created using a 32-bit compiler you need to pay attention to this bug: http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=20947 ]

OK, but I'm simultaneously trying to find out why I can't compile 2.7.1 on SPARC Solaris, and am not finding the overall combination easy. More on that one elsewhere, although I'm up to my eyes in "holiday" scheduled maintenance at the moment.

So you have specific problems with compiling a recent 2.7.1 on SPARC? Then I would suggest you to ask on fpc-pascal or fpc-devel list whether someone else (including me) knows what your problem is. Maybe I should also take the time over the holidays to set up a small test system on QEMU ^^

Sven

I can assure you that I have every intention of doing so :-)

[NOT expecting discussion here, but in brief I've got 2.4.4 working here on SPARC Solaris 8 and 10. Ludo got Lazarus working on x86 Solaris 10 and I followed his lead for SPARC. 2.7.1 on SPARC Solaris 8 and 10 worked a few weeks ago but something's broken since I was last able to put time into it. 2.7.1 OK on SPARC Linux but 2.4.4 not OK due to (now-fixed) CG issues, this caused problems at one point when 2.7.1 wouldn't compile with the slightly older version on my system).]

Currently tied up with server maintenance. Happy Midwinter Solstice everybody.

Were the changes done as <=2.6.0 vs >2.6.0

or are they done <=2.6 >2.6 ?

In the latter case, it will be a problem when such changes get merged to 2.6.1

Yep, that caught me !! A fresh compiler solved the problem. BTW, still using FPC 2.7.1, generated from trunk revision 19883.

Thanks, Felipe.

I check 2.6.x at the moment. But changing the code to react only to 2.6.0 as opposed to 2.6.x is trivial

I didn't know the changes were scheduled for inclusion in 2.6.1 when I wrote the defines, one cannot support both possibilities at the same time. If they are going the best would be to merge all fcl-image changes.
