[bug_fixed] MacOS X (Leopard) installation problem Lazarus

[piper62]

Hi,
I try to install Zeos 6.6.4 on a Mac with OSX (Leopard) and FreePascal 2.2.2, Lazarus 0.9.26.1.
XCode is installed. Lazarus is running well.

I get at the installation/compile the following error messages:
Any idea?

Using the libc unit might not be necessary when using FPC. I think that unit was mainly needed for kylix.
Try to replace

Code: Select all

implementation

uses
{$IFNDEF UNIX}
  Windows,
{$ELSE}
  libc,
{$ENDIF}

by

Code: Select all

implementation

uses
{$IFNDEF UNIX}
  Windows,
{$ELSE}
  {$IFNDEF FPC}
    libc,
  {$ENDIF}
{$ENDIF}

I can't promise this can be done for every occurence of the libc unit, but if we don't try we'll never know.
Can you help us?

Hi Mark,

you're right!
I had to modify the ZPlainLoader, ZPlainFirebird10, ZPlainFirebird15, ZPlainFirebird20
in the way you suggested.
Then the ZeosLib compiles without an error message.

Here's my uses section for the files:
----------------------------------
uses SysUtils,
{$IFNDEF UNIX}
Windows,
{$ELSE}
{$IFNDEF FPC}
libc,
{$ENDIF}
{$ENDIF}
ZMessages;
----------------------------------

SVN Rev 572 (Testing branch). This patch will be ported to the 6.6-patches branch before next release too.
