MSSQLConn

[Grahame Grieve]

I've added MSSQLConn to my project. Though the IDE can find the source, it says:

fsl_tests_web.pas(38,3) Fatal: Cannot find mssqlconn used by fsl_tests_web.

it can find the other sqldb connectors, so why not mssqlconn? Something to do with aarch64-darwin? But I get lost trying to trace if that's the case, or why that's the case if it is?

Lazarus 2.2.5 (rev lazarus_2_2_4-5-g49381efd93) FPC 3.2.2 aarch64-darwin-cocoa

The basic question is, is MSSQLConn possible on the darwin-cocoa platform ?

I found only these targets (main fpc)

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]

1. Targets.DefaultOS:=[win32,win64,openbsd,netbsd,freebsd,linux,haiku,dragonfly];

in the fpmake.inc (in fpcsrc/packages/fcl-db/src/sqldb/mssql)

Well, it should be... I have installed freeTDS. But that line of code isn't why the compiler can't find the code?

This from the fpmake file for creating the fcl. If freeTDS is installed or not is meaningless for this. It look it was never a tested target and the maintainer decide not to build this part of the fcl against darwin-cocoa.

If you can rebuild fpc, you can add the target darwin and recompile the fcl clean for a test. If it works, you can ask for activating the target. If it fails, bad luck or fix it.
