This directory contains the sources of the Free Pascal Compiler
|
|
|
|
To recompile the compiler, use the batch file
|
|
mppc386.bat
|
|
|
|
If you want to build a m68k version to cross compile from i386 to m68k
|
|
use the batch file
|
|
mppc68k.bat
|
|
|
|
If you want to modify the compiler, please read first the compiler
|
|
writer's guide (cws.txt) in that directory.

Changes in the syntax or semantic of FPC:
|
|
-----------------------------------------
|
|
28/01/99 implicit conversion from boolean to integer is not possible
|
|
anymore (solved several bugs) but this could lead to errors
|
|
on previously accepted code (PM)
|
|
01/02/99 c styled comments are supported (/* ... */), mainly
|
|
for the Sibyl sources of Medigo (FK)
|
|
02/02/99 class destructors take now two parameters: flag
|
|
if the helper routine should free the instance and
|
|
self pointer (FK)
|
|
22/02/99 PROTECTED and PRIVATE have now the same behavior
|
|
as in TP
|
|
09/03/99 small records and arrays passed by value to a function are now directly copied
|
|
into a 4 bytes parameter (needed for C and DLL calls) (PM)
|
|
11/03/99 the makefile.fpc is now also needed for the compiler and RTL, you can
|
|
find it in the base.zip package (PFV)
|
|
24/03/99 new directives UNITPATH,INCLUDEPATH,OBJECTPATH,LIBRARYPATH to
|
|
set the searchpaths where to find the files for that module (PFV)
|
|
25/03/99 new directive STATIC +/- or on/off , works like -St commandline
|
|
switch
|
|
02/04/99 rtl/cfg/ directory has been removed, it's not used anymore
|
|
15/04/99 FINALIZATION is supported
|
|
21/04/99 Default assembler for i386 changed to AT&T instead of direct
|
|
25/04/99: initialized vars supported in Delphi mode (only $J+ mode)
|
|
getting the address of an untyped const is now
|
|
forbidden as in BP
|
|
27/04/99 New unit format PPU016, you need to recompile all older units
|
|
01/05/99 Internal assembler. Assembler readers now support MMX,KNI
|
|
instructions.
|
|
12/05/99 rtl/utils/ directory moved to utils/. Moved the utils only needed
|
|
for compiler development to compiler/utils/
|
|
13/05/99 Classes are now only allowed in the ObjFpc or Delphi mode. Use
|
|
{$mode objfpc} or {$mode delphi}. Or from commandline -S2 or -Sd
|
|
16/05/99 Remove options -Up (use now -Fu) and -Fg (use now -Fl)
|
|
17/05/99 Redesign of ansistring temporary handling, please report
|
|
any problems
|
|
17/05/99 Most stuff of the objpas unit is now in the system unit
|
|
because the new temporary ansistring handling support
|
|
exceptions and exceptions need the class OOP model
|
|
18/05/99 The compiler will stop directly if there are errors in the
|
|
commandline parameters
|
