[Solved] FP - configuration

(1/2) > >>

jacmoe:
I want to use FP and when I use it, it doesn't work that well.

Do I really have to enter all the paths into it for each and every project that I want to create / work with?

Just copying fpc.cfg to fp.cfg does not work - I've tried that.


Lazarus works "out of the box" , FP does not.

Any tutorials, tips ?

I like Turbo Pascal, that's why I'd like to use FP more.

Edit:
Does it use binary DSK files instead?
Yes, it seems to do that.

jacmoe:
What values are you guys using?

jacmoe:
So, I installed FPC in Windows 2000 (VirtualBox) and the Free Pascal IDE worked out of the box.

I can live with that.

From what I can gather, no Linux users are using fp :)

I use it. There's no better way for debugging in headless server other than fp ide.

How did you install FPC on Linux? Using an official (.tar) distribution, or 3rd party distribution packages?

Afaik fpmkcfg has some option to create fp.cfgs, and you can have a global fp.cfg (~/.fp.cfg ?)

There is only one path to set  to $PREFIX/lib/fpc/$FPCVERSION/units/FPCTARGET/*

where $PREFIX is /usr or /usr/local or some directory in your homedir depending on installation. The other $FPC* you can copy verbatim, they are macros that are filled in by FPC.  I usually install releases system wide and snapshots in ~/builded or ~/builded64
