Help!I dont get it!Cross compile linux to win32.......
« on: February 14, 2006, 06:48:38 am »
I download fpc crosswin and i don't know what I have to do with that...
I try read about cross compile on lazarus wiki and I'm still don't understand.
Please tell me how to compile my program from linux to win32 so i can run in my Windows XP
i'm using fpc 2.0.2 and lazarus 0.9.12, and fpccrosswin on Suse 93

Thanks!

install lazarus, install fpccrosswin, and when you have them installed, open Lazarus and:
go to the Project -> Compiler Options menu and
  in Paths -> Target Widgetset choose Win32
  in Code -> Target Os chose Win32
  in Linking select Win32 GUI application

after that, go to Tools -> Configure Build Lazarus menu and
  set LCL Interface to Win32
  mark only Build LCL as Build + Clean, mark everything else as None

after that go to Tools -> Rebuild Lazarus and rebuild it (actually you will only rebuild the LCL - the only thing you need for cross-compiling)

When the cross-compiling of LCL is done, you can now cross-compile your project. Remember to *always* set the following before cross-compilation:
in the Project -> Compiler Options menu:
  in Paths -> Target Widgetset set to Win32
  in Code -> Target Os set to Win32
  in Linking select Win32 GUI application

and compile your project. you should get a perfectly working Windows exe.

Cheers
Mike

I think  I do exactly like you explain..but i guess i mess up somewhere(maybe i forget something)...so i get this message:
if run Lazarus from menu and build lazarus with  win32 LCL i have message ( i'm not sure iwill check again..):

make[2]: *** [../../units/i386-linux/win32] Error 1

then i go to virtual console try to run lazarus as root
su
password:*****
#lazarus
build lazarus  with win32 lcl (like u r instruction)
Then i got message
"Clean Lazarus Source" completed
/usr/lib/lazarus/lcl/interfaces/win32/win32int.pp(1,1) Fatal: Can't find unit Windows

I have build LCL and  I have message

/usr/lib/lazarus/lcl/interfaces/win32/win32proc.pp(865,2) Note: User defined: Should be moved to WSWin32Forms, if the windowproc is splitted
/usr/lib/lazarus/lcl/interfaces/win32/win32proc.pp(949,2) Note: User defined: Belongs in Win32WSForms, but is needed in windowproc
/usr/lib/lazarus/lcl/interfaces/win32/win32winapi.inc(1359,4) Warning: User defined: TWin32WidgetSet.FrameRect TODO: optimize ARect copying
"Build LCL" completed

I can crosscompile to win32 ( it  work find when i try iy on winxp) but the lazarus crash after succesfulcros compile

strange, I have no problems on Lazarus 0.9.10... have to try the 0.9.12. maybe you could run Lazarus from the console window and paste the output here?

Compilation succeeded. But you cannot run cross compiled win32 applications on linux.

Excuse my ignorance, but are you speaking of a way to compile under an os an executable wich will runs under another os ?

let's say I'm working under win32, could i compile my project to run under linux using that ?

Yes. It is possible to compile a Windows-executable on a Linux box. (Or vice versa)
What's in a sig? Would my posting look less if it didnot have a sig? (Free after William S.) :)

Does the directive works correctly ? (ie, {$ifdef win32} won't be true if 'im compiling for, let's say linux)

If yes, you just made my day and I must give it a try !

yep, the directives work correctly, i.e. if you have and {$IFDEF win32} and compile FOR win32 but UNDER linux - the code in IFDEF WILL be executed, just as it would be being compiled under win32. That's the whole point.

no you can't do this in the other way, I mean, you can't compile for linux from windows

You need the fpc units (RTL, FCL and packages) for windows.

Install them in PREFIX/lib/fpc/$FPCVERSION/units/i386-win32
