![]() later: the same as i386/darwin, except a) uses the non-fragile Objective-C ABI/runtime b) does not require stubs for direct calls/jumps (not required for i386/darwin under 10.6 and later either, but still generated there for backwards compatibility) c) only the same packages are enabled as for ARM/Darwin d) MacOSAll is compiled specifically for the iPhoneSimulator SDK This target also defines the symbol "darwin" apart from the target name "iphonesim" for source code compatibility reasons. git-svn-id: trunk@16065 - |

This is the FPC translation of the C library header files. This unit is meant to - Give full access to the GNU libc library functionality. - Be compatible to Borland's Libc.pas unit. There will often exist 2 versions of a function call: one with a pointer type argument - this is the straight translation of a libc call. One is with a var/const argument, this is a more 'pascal' like call, which is usually also the way Borland did it. Each C header file has been translated to an .inc file. The translation of header file xxx.h is named xxxh.inc. If macros were converted, they are in a file xxx.inc All files are included in libc.pp and their origin is noted there. the file glue.inc is meant to form a bridge between the pascal and C types, and to take care of some problems in the ordering of the header files. The translation was done on a SuSE 8.1 machine: Kernel version: 2.4.18 glibc version: 2.3 Note on the Libc errno variable. On recent systems the errno symbol is no longer published in libc. It has been replaced by a __errno_location pointer, with a macro in the C header files to mask this. The pascal Libc files assume this by default. This also means you cannot set the errno value directly, you must use the 'seterrno' procedure for that. (see errno.inc) The old mechanism of a published errno libc variable is still available by setting the LIBC_OLDERRNO define when compiling the libc units. Michael.
