Yes.
Let discuss other things.
In Windows installation fpc.exe is located in pp\bin\i386-win32
I suppose ppcrossarm.exe and cross binutils need to be located here too.
Cross binutils will be prefixed (e.g. arm-wince-as.exe)
Lazarus should setup crossbinutils prefix using -XP compiler option (it
will look like -XParm-wince- for arm-wince target).
Yes, or -XPfpc-i386-win32- for win32 under linux, or many other
possibilities.
Do you mean -XPi386-win32- ?
We need 'target' specific compiler options. With 'target' I do not only
mean
CPU, OS or LCL target.
Maybe this helps at the moment: you can add this to fpc.cfg:
# set binutils paths for crosscompiling
#IFDEF FPC_CROSSCOMPILING
-XParm-wince-
#ENDIF
Yes. Currently it is possible to setup Lazarus for crosscompiling. But it
will break native compiling and we discuss how to make cross and native
comiling live together at the same time. For example if you open Win32
project it will compile Win32 app, if you open WinCE project it will compile
it too without changing anything in options.
