[fpc-devel] FPC 3.0.0-rc1 release
Hello We have placed the first release candidate of the Free Pascal Compiler version 3.0.0 on our ftp servers. You can help improve the upcoming 3.0.0 release by downloading and testing this release. If you want you can report what you have done here: http://wiki.freepascal.org/Testers_3.0.0 New features are listed at http://wiki.freepascal.org/FPC_New_Features_3.0 Changes that may break backwards compatibility are documented at http://wiki.freepascal.org/User_Changes_3.0.0 Issues with this release candidate that we already know of are listed in the wiki: http://wiki.freepascal.org/Issues_3.0.0 A preview of the 3.0.0 docs is available at http://www.freepascal.org/docs-html/3.0.0/ Downloads are available at: * ftp://freepascal.stack.nl/pub/fpc/beta/3.0.0-rc1 * ftp://gd.tuwien.ac.at/languages/pascal/fpc/beta/3.0.0-rc1 * ftp://ftp.freepascal.org/pub/fpc/beta/3.0.0-rc1 Enjoy! The Free Pascal Compiler Team Free Pascal Compiler Version 3.0.0-rc1 * Introduction Please also read the platform specific README file, if it exists. This package contains an advanced freeware 32-bit/64-bit/16-bit pascal compiler for several platforms. The language and the runtime library are almost compatible with Turbo Pascal 7.0 and recent Delphi releases. There is also partial support for the Macintosh pascal dialect. News and changes related to this release are described in whatsnew.txt. Free Pascal 3.0.0 is currently available for the following platforms: - Linux-i386 - Linux-x86_64 (amd64) - Linux-powerpc - Linux-sparc - Linux-ARM - Win32-i386 (Win95/98/Me/XP/2000/2003/Vista/7 and WinNT) - Win64-x86_64 (XP/Vista/2003) - Wince-ARM (cross compiled from win32-i386) - FreeBSD-i386 - FreeBSD-x86_64 - Mac OS X/Darwin for PowerPC (32 and 64 bit) - Mac OS X/Darwin for Intel (32 and 64 bit) - iOS, iPhoneSimulator - OS/2-i386 (OS/2 Warp v3.0, 4.0, WarpServer for e-Business and eComStation) - GO32v2-i386 There are other platforms (like other BSD variants) which are more or less working, but there is currently no maintainer for them and thus we cannot provide adequate support. If you want to change this and create and maintain versions for other platforms and targets, feel free to contact us, e-mail addresses are listed below. * Features - high speed compiler - fully 16, 32 or 64-bit code - 32 bit compiler can be used on x86_64 Linux distributions to compile 32 bit applications - language features: - almost fully compatible with Borland Pascal and Borland Delphi - ansi strings - wide strings - exception support - RTTI support - procedure overloading - generics (experimental) - operator overloading - COM, CORBA and raw interfaces support - dynamic array support - variant support - inlining - code optimizer: - peephole optimizer (80x86 only) - jump optimizer - loading of variables into registers - assembler level dataflow analyzer (80x86 only) - stack frame eliminations - sophisticated register allocator - integrated BASM (built-in assembler) parser - supports ATT syntax used by GNU C - supports Intel syntax used by Turbo Pascal (80x86-only) - can compile code into assembler source code for these assemblers: - GNU Assembler (GAS) - Netwide assembler (Nasm) - Microsoft Assembler/Turbo Assembler (Masm/Tasm) - Watcom assembler (wasm) - internal assembler for ultra fast object file generation - can call external C code - h2pas utility to convert .h files to Pascal units - smart linking (also known as dead code stripping) - support for the GNU debugger - integrated development environment (disabled by default on Mac OS X) - powerful user friendly Wordstar compatible multi file editor - context sensitive help supports help files in HTML, Windows HLP and Borland TPH format. - debugger on most platforms - can create binaries running natively under both DOS and OS/2 (EMX version) - no need for Linux distribution specific binaries, programs you write run on all distributions - high quality documentation * Minimum requirements i386, x86_64, PowerPC or Sparc processor Win32: - MS Windows NT/2000/2003/XP/Vista/7 (Win95, 98 and ME are not supported in FPC officially any longer). - 16 MB RAM OS/2: - OS/2 Warp v3.0 with one of late fixpaks - FP 35 should be fine, OS/2 Warp v4.0 with FP 5 and above, WSeB, MCP or any eComStation version (OS/2 2.0/2.1 currently not supported, not even for compiled programs). - Certain features (e.g. Unicode

But here is Win95,98,Me explicitly excluded. I think, that at first place it should be also excluded. -Laco. ___ fpc-devel maillist - fpc-devel@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-devel
