[fpc-devel] Compiler 240 (and MySql)

[Carsten Bager]

I have a problem with the new 240 compiler.
I get errors when calling functions in the sysutils unit.
I have tested the 251 compiler, and it was exactly the same.
I am normally using the 224 compiler, and it works fine.

Anybody have a hint.

I have compiled and the tested the MySql client lib to arm 9 Linux. Is that of 
any interest for FPC users? It  works with FPC for arm.

Example: 

program hw1;
uses
  sysutils;

Type
   Datetime_typ=Packed record
      year,month,day,hour,min,sec,sec100,dayOfWeek:word;
   end;
var dt:dateTime_typ;
Begin
  WriteLn('Test');
  decodeTime(Time,dt.hour,dt.min,dt.sec,dt.sec100);
End.

------------------------------------------------------
This program gives  the following output.
------------------------------------------------------

/ # ./hw1
