What's wrong?

If your target system is arm-wince, don't use the win32 widget set, but the wince widgetset.

Sure, but How can I say it to Lazarus IDE?

[taazz]

open the menu project\project options, select the build mode tree and there set your lclwidgetset options. See attached photo.

[roeug]

Thanks.
OK with a new project
With my old project (Lazarus 9.30.x OK) –
"Fatal: Can not find system used by MyProject_wince_arm, ppu=...  \lazarus\fpc\2.6.0\units\arm-wince\rtl\system.ppu"
Manually added all paths
"MyLib_m.pas(21) Error: Error while assembling exitcode 1"
MyLib_m.pas(20) == end.

What's the problem?

[Vincent Snijders]

It seems you added source path for the RTL, but you should add the path to the compiled units (*.ppu and *.o).

[roeug]

Not for the case (srcs are in … \lazarus\fpc\2.6.0\source  - not in the path -Fu)

[Vincent Snijders]

I have no further ideas.

[roeug]

The "solution" was:
  New Appl/WinCE/arm (Form1 created)
  Add LCLWidgetType (See taazz post above)
  No Add Paths requied
  Add Forms (from previous Lazarus 9.30 project)
  Remove Form1 unit from the Project
  Edit main file (Project/Project source)
  Compile – OK

The only "feature":
  Lazarus 9.30 + upx the application size = 600K
  Lazarus 1.0 + upx the application size = 3900K

Is it OK?

[Leledumbo]

Is it OK?

Nope, the differences shouldn't be that big. The one created with 1.0 seems to have debugging info or not properly smartlinked.

[roeug]

Optimization + SmartLinking(Lazarus 1.0) + upx the application size = 4000K – disaster

[Leledumbo]

It won't be that big, something must be wrong. Copy and paste what "Show Options" button display in Compiler Options dialog.

Got it! Compile + upx Application size = 600K

Thanks all.

[Vincent Snijders]

A -XX (enable smartlinking) seems to be missing.
