I've added MSSQLConn to my project. Though the IDE can find the
source, it says:

fsl_tests_web.pas(38,3) Fatal: Cannot find mssqlconn used by
fsl_tests_web.

it can find the other sqldb connectors, so why not mssqlconn?
Something to do with aarch64-darwin? But I get lost trying to trace if
that's the case, or why that's the case if it is?

The basic question is, is MSSQLConn possible on the darwin-cocoa
platform ?

I found only these targets (main fpc)
Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]window.onload = function(){var x1 =
document.getElementById("main_content_section"); if (x1) { var x =
document.getElementsByClassName("geshi");for (var i = 0; i Targets.Def
aultOS:=[win32,win64,openbsd,netbsd,freebsd,linux,haiku,dragonfly];in
the fpmake.inc (in fpcsrc/packages/fcl-db/src/sqldb/mssql)

Well, it should be... I have installed freeTDS. But that line of code
isn't why the compiler can't find the code?

This from the fpmake file for creating the fcl. If freeTDS is
installed or not is meaningless for this. It look it was never a
tested target and the maintainer decide not to build this part of the
fcl against darwin-cocoa.

If you can rebuild fpc, you can add the target darwin and recompile
the fcl clean for a test. If it works, you can ask for activating the
target. If it fails, bad luck or fix it.
