[fpc-devel] Questions about cross-compiling (z80)

[BogDan]

Hello,

According to https://wiki.freepascal.org/Z80 fpc is able to compile pascal code for z80.
Sadly I'm a newbie on fpc, therefore I have a few questions:

1. I changed a bit the build script from https://wiki.freepascal.org/Z80#Building and I managed to build fpc, and when I built a simple hello world file, the resulted tzx file seems wrong:
 ./ppcrossz80 -n -Tzxspectrum -PZ80 -Fu/path/to/fpc/lib/fpc/3.3.1/units/z80-zxspectrum/rtl -viwn -CX -XX test.pas

$ cat test.tzx
:105CF800314CEA0188E0214DE6373FED423E000293
:105D0800032BBD20FABC20F7FD2288E0F31100FE2A
:105D180021FDFD7AED477D121C20FC141236C321AB
....

It seems is an IHX format not tzx
Also the result for a simple hello world is way too big (over 20k) !
I assume that I'm passing wrong params to ppcrossz80. What params should I use? Where I can find more info on this matter?


2. Is it possible to add z80 cross compilation target to FP IDE? The FP IDe shows me a few targets, but z80 is not there.

Cheers,
BogDan.
