Actually, I just tried, "make clean all crosszipinstall" works with a
recent 2.7.1 snapshot except that you need to patch the
"_FPC_libc_start" method in rtl/linux/i386/si_c.inc with the latest
version. I.e. basically, the targetandroid branch needs merging with the
latest trunk to work again.
Or you could just merge to trunk... might result in a better test user
coverage as well :)
Not sure why, but with trunk, utils won't be compiled in a
crosszipinstall any more automatically. It does not make sense anyway to
compile target binaries for them anyway since you're going to install on
the host.
AFAIK that was disabled on purpose some time ago exactly because of that
reason.
So building works so far, but the next problem is "crossinstall"... even
after I do a normal install for my host system I get the following when
trying to do a crossinstall for Android
=== output begin ===
[...]make[5]: Leaving directory `/mnt/data/source/fpc/fpc-android/rtl/android'
fpcmake -p -Tarm-android Makefile.fpc
Processing Makefile.fpc
Error: No targets set
[...]
Use of wrong fpcmake.
What I typically do, since I'm often working with different fpc
versions/branches at the same time, is not have a global fpc install. I
simply copy fpcmake (in utils/fpcm), data2inc (in utils) and the ppc386
bootstrap snapshot compiler into a directory and add that directory into
the path.
So compile the branch once with the 2.7.1 compiler (after applying above
patch, e.g. make zipinstall PP=...) to get these bootstrap tools, put
those files into a directory, put that directory into the path and use
them to compile the targetandroid branch.
This is of course a totally unsupported way to use fpc and you're on
your own when doing so :-P ymmv.
I now simply replaced my 2.6.0 fpcmake with one compiled from the
Android branch and were happy to go :)
So I (this time on Windows) managed to compile and install the branch
and now just need to check whether it will work...
Now I just need to test whether the Android LCL test application/library
works... Thank you so far :D

Sven
