Usage of 64 bit address space. > In the same sense I'd like to ask if you could specify some sort of > minimum requirements for the port in a little more detail? > (E.g. must cycle using the makefiles, must integrate into fpc distro, > must compile + run IDE, must successfully run x tests, etc..., whatever) I think it depends if other people are working on it as well. I would consider the following levels of porting: - good test results (20-30 failures is a good results for non i386) - make cycle - makepack.sh - run the ide - run lazarus Of course, another thing is how good the quality of the implementation is i.e. how good does it integrate into the existing compiler and powerpc sources. _______________________________________________ fpc-devel maillist - fpc-devel@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-devel
