FreePascal 3.2.2 released!

<< < (5/6) > >>

Igor Kokarev:
I don't recommend to use Avast. Read "Antivirus firm Avast is reportedly selling users' web browsing data" from Cnet and other sources. The best antivirus is Windows Defender form Microsoft. We never had any issues with it.

We compiled our products with Delphi many years and now with FPC, earlier with Delphi we had false positives with Avast and some other antiviruses 1-2 times annually. Now with FPC compiled code no problem since 2019.

Okoba:
Thanks to the FPC team  ;D

tcab:
The Mac fpc source installer

--- Code: ---fpc-src-3.2.2-1-laz.pkg
--- End code ---
installs 3.2.0 not 3.2.2.

I am unable to get Lazarus configured due to this problem.
Download was from https://sourceforge.net/projects/lazarus/files/Lazarus%20macOS%20x86-64/Lazarus%202.2RC1/

Please report this in the Lazarus 2.2 RC1 thread. This is about the 3.2.2 release of FPC which does not provide such a download.

Igor Kokarev:
I recently installed FPC 3.2.2 on M1 Mac (fpc-3.2.2.intelarm64-macosx.dmg).

Thanks to FPC team for their great work!

I noticed that during installation I was informed about installation of Rosetta 2 emulator first time (I didn't use it earlier).

May I suggest that FPC binaries (or installer agents) should be Universal Binaries to work without Rosetta emulator.

Cross-compilation for x86-64 or aarch64 is very easy on any Mac with Big Sur. Universal Binary also can be created with one call of lipo command.

I'm sure that Apple will drop Rosetta 2 emulator in several years and we should be ready.
