Lazarus JVM installation - missing "ppcjvm"
lazarus / 1-Linux

I'm trying to compile free pascal code into java classes as documented
https://wiki.freepascal.org/FPC_JVM using the option -Pjvm but this
results in ppcjvm not being found. All the downloads referred to
actually point to the normal fpc installer. E.g. the linux download
turns out to be
https://sourceforge.net/projects/freepascal/files/Linux/3.0.4/ which
looks like the regular installer. I assume ppcjvm is bundled inside
that - but no? I cannot see it in the tars, either.

I have previously successfully installed lazarus under linux with sudo
apt-get install lazarus and have OK access to the fpc command on both
systems. Installing again on linux using the .install script in the
tar does not help, I get a different fpc but still get the ppcjvm
missing message? I've searched and "ppcjvm" is not on my linux file
system.

Code: [Select]$ sudo ./install.sh

This shell script will attempt to install the Free Pascal Compiler
version 3.0.4 with the items you select

You need to build the ppcjvm cross compiler yourself. See the wiki.
