Title: GP2X
| Old | New | Line | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | + | Paul Nicholls has been doing some extensive work on the GP2X platform. As a result it is now possible to compile for the hand-held media & gaming system by Korean-based company, Gamepark. | |

| 3 | + | # GP2X port | |
| 4 | + | ||
| 5 | + | ## Status | |
| 6 | + | ||
| 7 | + | - ARM for Linux CPU is supported. | |
| 8 | + | ||
| 9 | + | ## Port notes | |
| 10 | + | ||
| 11 | + | The [fpc 4 GP2X Initiative](http://fpc4gp2x.eonclash.com/) site has been updated. There is now an example SDL program that can be compiled and run under Win32 (and other freepascal platforms) and the GP2X. | |
| 12 | + | ||
| 13 | + | There is also documentation in rich-text format showing how to setup the devkitGP2X and freepascal cross-compiler ready for compiling programs for the GP2X. | |
| 14 | + | ||
| 15 | + | This means you can now create and compile SDL programs that run under Win32 AND the gp2x platform! :-) | |
| 16 | + | ||
| 17 | + | ## Acknowledgments | |
| 18 | + | ||
| 19 | + | A huge thanks to Eugene Proshkin who lurks in the gp32x forums for showing me how it was possible to compile GP2X programs using a freepascal cross-compiler. | |
| 20 | + | ||
| 21 | + | He created a program for the GP2X called blocks (http://www.gp32x.com/board/lofiversion/index.php/t34048.html) | |
| 22 | + | ||
| 23 | + | He sent me an email as a starting point containing an example fpc.cfg file, the batch file to compile the FPC source code, what devkitGP2X file paths were needed, and what devkitGP2X files .so files needed modifying. | |
| 24 | + | ||
| 25 | + | He also sent me a batch file to compile the project files to create the .gpe file. | |
