Problem building trunk Android cross compiler from Windows
lazarus / 64-FPC development

Hello. I'm running into a problem with threads on Android, and after
trying everything I could, I wanted to try using a more recent version
of FPC, just in case.

I'm currently using the prebuilt release version 3.2.2 of FPC for
Windows.

With it, I'm able to build the branch named fixes_3_2 without
problems, but it doesn't solve my problem with threads.

But when I try to compile the trunk version of FPC, I can only compile
the main thing using:

Code: Bash  [Select][+][-]window.onload = function(){var x1 =
document.getElementById("main_content_section"); if (x1) { var x =
document.getElementsByClassName("geshi");for (var i = 0; i
PATH=C:\FPC\3.2.2\bin\i386-win32;SET
FPC=C:\FPC\3.2.2\bin\i386-win32\fpc.exemake.exe clean
distcleanmake.exe all OPT="-gw -godwarfset -O-1"make.exe install
INSTALL_PREFIX=C:\FPC\trunk COPYTREE=echo
When I try to build the cross-compiler for Android:

Code: Bash  [Select][+][-]window.onload = function(){var x1 =
document.getElementById("main_content_section"); if (x1) { var x =
document.getElementsByClassName("geshi");for (var i = 0; i
PATH=C:\FPC\3.2.2\bin\i386-win32;C:\Android\android-
ndk-r21e\toolchains\aarch64-linux-
android-4.9\prebuilt\windows-x86_64\bin;SET
FPC=C:\FPC\3.2.2\bin\i386-win32\fpc.exeSET CROSSOPT="-dANDROID"make
clean crossall crossinstall OS_TARGET=android CPU_TARGET=aarch64
CROSSOPT=%CROSSOPT% INSTALL_PREFIX=C:\FPC\trunk
I get this error:

I just finished building the same target on my linux machine (using
fpcupdeluxe) which worked for me without issues.

Perhaps/maybe something was addressed in FPC fixes so try to use the
3.2.3 compiler to build your android cross-compiler (you just build it
anyway so might as well use it).

Fixes is v3.2.3, not trunk btw (which is designated 3.3.1).

Thanks, the compilation is working now. And the thread problem wasn't
coming from that.
