This is not true. You can perfectly compile a compiler using the previous' release rtl.
Sure this is not the question.
E.g. the people developing using the fp IDE often do this (because they have a project for the compiler, but that one does not automatically compile the rtl).
Adapt the project to use the new RTL ? Anyway, seems "dangerous" to me, not testing possible RTL regressions then.
A while ago, Peter removed several dependencies of the compiler on the new rtl (related to endian swapping routines) for this reason.
I see the reason is not really coming out, but I'll stop now. Micha _______________________________________________ fpc-devel maillist - fpc-devel@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-devel
