Go to sources folder and execute:
make distclean
make all
make install SNAPSHOT=1 INSTALL_PREFIX=C:/some_folder

THanks, one final (i hope) question
I assume I need to grab the entire folder and recompile it - if so I assume I can compile with FPC itself ????

Get sources from svn using this path:
http://svn.freepascal.org/svn/fpc/branches/fixes_2_2
I dont know where snapshots can be found.

Thanks,
can you suggest the best way (ie. the correct url) for me to run with the svn.exe command to get the latest snapshot as I'm unsure where the x86_64 stuff is - esp as it would appear to have vanished from the sourceforge page ?
What's the current x86_64 snapshot version ?
Thanks
Mark

Hi,
I fixed DLL related a few weeks ago. You need to get more fresh snapshot and test it.

Hi Yury,
specifically the file was lazarus-0.9.23-fpc-2.1.5-20070531-win64.exe
Hope this helps ?

Hello,
How old is snapshot you are using?

Hi,
I'm having a strange issue with the LoadLibrary call in the 64bit beta version of the free pascal compiler (fpc 2.1.5 with lazarus 0.9.23 beta) - standard install from the sourceforge download and installed in the default c:\lazarus directory.
I have written a function in FPC that I have used in Delphi for many many years with out problem. Ok, here's a simple piece of code
function myfunction(a, var b : dword) : boolean;
var dllh : cardinal;
fun : function (a : dword; var b : dword) : boolean; stdcall;
begin
result := false;
dllh := loadlibrary('c:\windows\system32\somelib.dll');
if dllh <> 0 then
begin
fun := nil;
fun := getprocaddress(dllh,'someproc');
if fun <> nil then result := fun(a,b);
end
else
result := false;
end;
Now here's my problem - very simply if I compile this into a standard console application it works fine, however, if I compile it into the DLL I am planing to run it in it fails - the loadlibrary call ALWAYS returns 0x7C370000 which appears to be a memory address rather than a handle - the result is that the getprocaddress returns an invalid address and fails.
So, why is the loadlibrary call failing (or returning this memory address) when in a DLL but NOT when it's in a console app.
Any help would be great, as I cannot seem to find an implementation of GETLASTERROR to pass to SYSERRORMESSAGE to display any error from the OS if there is one !
Thanks folks
Mark
Kind regards
