Hello, I'm trying to use ppumove as described in the documentation to create a shared library from a set of FPC units. This is different from creating a DLL by specifying the symbols specially in an export section.
However ppumove fails with a message 'cannot export symbol. symbol not found'. I have a small test unit attached as an example. I compile it using fpc 2.4.1 with the following command, on Windows XP: fpc -Cg -Aas test.pp In the assembler generated, the symbol for the calc procedure is present. and then, when I use ppumove, like this: ppumove -test.ppu I get the following report: "PPU-Mover Version 2.1.1 Copyright (c) 1998-2007 by the Free Pascal Development Team Processing test.ppu...Error: PPU is already in a library : test.ppu Linking Error: no files found to be linked Done." Using ppumove to generate the ld command (using the -b switch) generates the following command:"ld -shared -E -o test1.dll test.o". When executed, it generates the same error message: " Cannot export TEST_CALC$SMALLINT$SMALLINT$SMALLINT: symbol not found Cannot export THREADVARLIST_TEST: symbol not found " I've also tried generated a shared rtl library using the recommended approach: calling make in the root rtl source directory: "make clean all CREATESHARED=1" with the same results. Has somebody seen this already? What am I doing wrong? Can somebody reproduce the problem? Best regards, Thierry
