FPC (FreePascalCompiler) and Lazarus (IDE)

[Zendrael]

Hey AmatCoder!
How are you?

Teach me your way to build these extensions then I can became the maintaner of it.

Thanks for supporting this extension!

[AmatCoder]

Sure, no problem...I built these extensions using tc-ext-tools: http://code.google.com/p/tc-ext-tools/

First, you must install tc-ext-tools (you need svn.tcz):

Code: [Select]

tc@box:~$ tce-load -i svn
tc@box:~$ svn checkout http://tc-ext-tools.googlecode.com/svn/trunk tc-ext-tools
tc@box:~$ cp config.sample .config
tc@box:~$ ./install.sh

tc-ext-tools has been installed. Now you build fpc package:

Code: [Select]

tc@box:~$ svn checkout http://tc-ext-tools.googlecode.com/svn/packages/fpc
tc@box:~$ cd fpc

You must edit common file. Change:
VERSION="2.6.2" to VERSION="2.6.4"
and CURRENT="Updated to $VERSION (by AmatCoder)" to CURRENT="Updated to $VERSION (by Zendrael)"
Then:

Code: [Select]

tc@box:~$ buildit

When it is finished (takes more than 15 minutes) you have a fpc-2.6.4.tar.bz2.bfe file under /storage/pkgs folder. Save it because you will send this file to tcesubmit.

Reboot and load fpc.tcz. As you can seen it has been updated in your /tce/optional directory. Now repeat with lazarus.

Meanwhile yet another Lazarus version was released: v1.2.2, built with the latest FPC version (2.6.4).

Looking forward to using it soon on TinyCore!

Hey ghar,

Core is now at 5.3 too, I was waiting this release to start the compiling. Maybe I get some news in the weekend!

Keep up the good work, Zendrael!
