Source of TRegExpr for fpc.

[fredvs]

Hello.

In attachment, source for the fpc compiler. Tested with last fpc 3.2.0 fixes.

fpc_packages_regexpr_src.zip

(I hope this one is ok)

I already use trunk with FPC 3.3 and 3.2. what 's new?

Sorry, I did not understand. What 's new in what?

[fredvs]

Maybe we misunderstood.

I have done the patch using your code and have test it. Of course there is nothing new, it is your code but ready to use for fpc compiler source.

[Alexey-T]

so it's patch for FPC code base. please post this to FreePascal bugtracker, they dont read here.

[fredvs]

They never take care of my patches in FreePascal bugtracker, so sorry but I dont give them patches anymore. It is the reason I give it to you in case if you want to compile your own fpc.

I use your patch in a fork of Free Pascal (your patch is in source, it will be in the next release very soon).

looked at fpc-ootb.

• better name binaries not so cryptic. linux-x32, linux-x64, linux-arm, linux-aarch64 (or -arm64, its the same). win-x32, win-x64.
• good to have - win-arm64 (64! because MS Surface Pro X has ARM64 CPU)

From Stackoverflow:

armhf stands for "arm hard float", and is the name given to a Debian port for arm processors (armv7+) that have hardware floating point support. The cpu of the Raspberry is 64 bit but at the moment, Raspbian OS is still 32 bit.

So you may see it is not easy to choose the right name! But ok, for next release I will change it.

good to have - win-arm64 (64! because MS Surface Pro X has ARM64 CPU)

If you refer to StackOverflow, all cpu armhf (so the one of Raspberry pi too) are 64 bit. It is the OS Raspbian stable that is still 32 bit (but there is a Raspbian 64 nearly ready).

But I never try Windows for arm64. Did you try it? Was it easy to install?

[Alexey-T]

arm64 is synonim for AArch64. see wikipedia. Win10 exists for arm64. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/surface-pro-x/8vdnrp2m6hhc?activetab=overview

Win10 for arm64 will be released in ISO

[fredvs]

Hum, I did some research about fpc + win-arm64 and it is far from working yet.

By the way if you have a Surface Pro, I am highly interested to help you to do a win-arm64 release.

Sadly, all what I found about test of Win10 on Rpi 4 are not very positive. Yes, it is possible to install it but running application is extremely slow and I fear that using my Rpi to compile fpc will take centuries.

[Alexey-T]

but I dont have Surface..

[fredvs]

OK but I dont know anybody that has one.
