Hi,

While trying to fix bug http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=26651 (for WinCE), the compiler complained with:
Identifier not found "GetProcessAffinityMask" (in utf8process.pp).

However, codetools' find declaration locates the function in fpc/rtl/win/wininc/redef.inc.

Where's the catch?

Note: GetProcessAffinityMask is defined as well in fpc/rtl/win/wininc/func.inc (inc file is used for Win32/64 but not for WinCE).

Thanks,
Stephano

If you wanna get quick and without problem, my solution is, on http://www.lazarus.freepascal.org/index.php?page=downloads "Windows (32 Bits) Add ons" link has wince binutils and others, just make clean install this files in winxp x32
I made in virtualbox, new xp and install just that link's files and then make crosscompile to wince.
I update my fpc svn before write this message (r28697) I get fatal error while make "OS_TARGET=wince CPU_TARGET=arm" maybe my binutil has a problem. But still work on vbox, 3 hours ago I added some lines to wince project and sent it, its work on wince.

I build the WinCE cross compiler without any issue. The issue occurs only when compiling a WinCE project with lazarus svn. Do you use lazarus svn or a stable version?

I wrote my system detail in my bugtracker, fpc and lazarus svn (last update)on kubuntu 14.04 x64
What is yours system detail ?

included in fpc 2.6.4 by
rtl/wince/wince/windows.pp

which looks right to me.

They differ by the type of hProcess: THandle vs HANDLE. Maybe there is a difference on WinCE?

I just realised that the identifier is completely not recognised, ie it is not an issue of mismatched parameters. I noted as well the use of compiler directives such as {$IF defined(windows)} instead of {$IFDEF WINDOWS} in lazarus/components/lazutils/utf8process.pp. Could this be the cause?

No. They are the same.

Mattias

I guess I found the cause. The problem is 2 fold:

1- The function GetProcessAffinityMask is not defined for WinCE, as it is not defined in fpc/rtl/wince/wininc/redef.inc (as opposed to fpc/rtl/win/wininc/redef.inc which includes GetProcessAffinityMask). Hence this function should be eliminated from utf8process.pp for WinCE.

2- Codetools are still pointing to the win version of redef.inc eventhough the project's LCLwidgetset is WinCE.

Stephano

LCL widget set OS.
The LCL setting has nothing to do with the FPC sources.

You must set Target OS to Wince. By default this will select LCL widgetset wince. Not the other way round.

Mattias

I should have said both target OS and widgetset. They were both explicitly set to WinCE, and the target CPU to arm.

Stephano

Thanks for the hint.

I added the include path rtl/TargetOS/wininc for Windows targets.

Although find declaration now rightly fails to locate GetProcessAffinityMask for WinCE, I am not sure how adding rtl/TargetOS/wininc without removing rtl/win/wininc did the trick.

On the other hand, compilation of WinCE projects still fails due to that missing function. I have opened a bug report and included a patch for function GetSystemThreadCount that returns the processor count instead.

As the compiler. Good.

It now finds the right redef.inc.
