| 5 | 5 | Since FPC 2.4.0 there is official support for Haiku. The FPC release can be downloaded from [here](http://www.freepascal.org/down/i386/haiku.var). | |

| 9 | 9 | Here are unofficial builds needed to compile Free Pascal on those platforms : | |

| 16 | 16 | Those compilers should compile "branches/fixes_2_2" and trunk. | |

| 18 | 18 | What is missing is a specific target for haiku to use the native ld included in the development package instead of a R5 one. This work is in progress. Until then, the native ld could be used by replacing | |

| 32 | 32 | The console mode IDE should work but compiling it with gdb support is more complicated (you will need to collect a lot of static libraries from the haiku build : libgdb.a and all its dependencies...). | |

| 34 | 34 | Here is a snapshot of fpc 2.3.1 for Haiku (revision 11134) : [fpc-2.3.1.i386-haiku.tar.gz](http://olivier.coursiere.free.fr/download/fpc-2.3.1.i386-haiku.tar.gz) | |
