[Solved] Create 32-bit app with Laz 64-bit

[bobonwhidbey]

This topic has been beat to death, but I'm still having problems.
I've installed
  lazarus-2.0.12-fpc-3.2.0-win64.exe in folder laz64
       and also
  lazarus-2.0.8-fpc-3.0.4-cross-i386-win32-win64.exe
       in the same folder

I've set Project Options/Compiler Options
      Target OS             =Win32
      Target CPU family =i386
      Target processor   =Default

When I click OK to save this I get the message:
Compiler "C:\laz64\fpc\3.20\bin\x86_64-win64\fpc.exe"
does not support target i386-win32

For a certain project I want to always create a 32-bit app. What have I done wrong here?

I've installed
  lazarus-2.0.12-fpc-3.2.0-win64.exe in folder laz64
       and also
  lazarus-2.0.8-fpc-3.0.4-cross-i386-win32-win64.exe
       in the same folder

You should install the 2.0.12 cross compiler.

In the above case, they have different fpc versions. Your Lazarus will be setup to use the 3.2.0 compiler, and that does not find a 3.0.4 compiler.

You can keep what you have installed (don't worry about the extra bits / unless your disk space is limited).
Just install
  lazarus-2.0.12-fpc-3.2.0-cross-i386-win32-win64.exe
from
  https://sourceforge.net/projects/lazarus/files/Lazarus%20Windows%2064%20bits/Lazarus%202.0.12/
into the "laz64" folder.

There is a small chance you get some "unit not found" error. If so try
- rebuild ide "clean all" / tools => configure build IDE
- or finding and deleting all ppu files.

I've set Project Options/Compiler Options
      Target OS             =Win32
      Target CPU family =i386
      Target processor   =Default

That looks correct

Perfect. Thank you Martin
