RE : [fpc-pascal] 2.6.0 for Solaris?
Hi, I was looking to try FPC but I saw the latest release isn't available for Solaris, only 2.4something. Do you guys plan on releasing the new version on Solaris? Do you intend to keep supporting Solaris? 2.6.0 is available for intel from ftp://ftp.freepascal.org/pub/fpc/dist/2.6.0/i386-solaris/fpc-2.6.0.i386-sola ris.tar.gz and ftp://ftp.freepascal.org/pub/fpc/dist/2.6.0/x86_64-solaris/fpc-2.6.0.x86_64- solaris.tar.gz Ludo ___ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal

Do you happen to know why they aren't shown from the downloads page on freepascal.org? ___ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal

Is it possible to get 2.6.0 for Solaris SPARC? Thanks again. I've got a copy that I've built and run here, but I started off with an earlier version and had to jump through a few hoops to get it installed. I strongly recommend using 2.6 as an interim release on SPARC, since there were code-generation bugs that weren't fixed until a few months ago- the fixes are in 2.7.1 but haven't been backported. Having said that, 2.7.1 plus the trunk version of Lazarus work fine together for basic projects (there's things I don't routinely test, like database access). -- Mark Morgan Lloyd markMLl .AT. telemetry.co .DOT. uk [Opinions above are the author's, not those of his employers or colleagues] ___ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
