Low and High
by Dominique Thillaud 10 Sep '03

10 Sep '03

Thanks to all ! The variable GPC_UNIT_PATH works very well and, despite the wise advice of Frank, I've included the current directory in my PATH (I'm strictly and for ever a single-user). The statement "export all" is convenient to export operators, the only joke is that we must use the full header of the operator (params and return name) in the implementation part, unlike the forward style of other routines. Now, I was puzzled by the comportment of the Borland functions Low and High. Writing the small test : program testarraypar ; procedure writeRange (T : array of integer) ; begin WriteLn('param range : ', Low(T), '..', High(T)) ; end ; var T : array [1..10] of integer ; begin WriteLn('arg range : ', Low(T), '..', High(T)) ; writeRange(T) ; WriteLn('arg range : ', Low(T[2..9]), '..', High(T[2..9])) ; writeRange(T[2..9]) ; end. the running gives : arg range : 1..10 param range : 0..9 arg range : 2..9 param range : 0..7 That's not fair ! And with such a comportment, the parameter type "array of integer" becomes almost useless : iterative sorting routines do their job but not the linear search nor the binary one (except with stupid things like "return index + Low(T)" that I refuse to teach with beginners). Knows someone an other way to access the bounds of an "array of integer" ? Thanks in advance, Dominique

building gpi
by Mehdi Khaldi 10 Sep '03

10 Sep '03

I'd like to build only gpi files without .o files. I use --interface-only flag. Is there another flag like automake to (re)build gpi files without linking or generating .o files?

Execute external commands
by Miklos Cserzo 09 Sep '03

09 Sep '03

Hi Folks, what is the way to execute an external Unix command from GPC? (Like 'sort -k6f xxx') According to the documentation the function 'execute' is defined in the RTS and it looks like the one I just need. However, I can not access it, I get the 'undefined identifier' error. While the 'pos' function is fine and it is defined on the same place. Cheers, miklos

[churchgrowthideas] Fusion / A Postcard from Hollywood
by info_euphoria 09 Sep '03

09 Sep '03

Hey, how are you? Have you seen the movie "Swimming Pool" (2003) it's have the hidden meaning and revolves around a swimming pool (a crime scene) about mystery writer, a woman from Britain visits her Publisher's house in France, where her interaction with his unusual daughter sets off inspirations for the writing a novel. This movie was a remake of the French movie with Alain Delon (do you know this actor?) and Romy Schneider (Julia Roberts of Austria) they played in the movies "The Swimming Pool" (1970) an award-winning film tells of (Delon) and his mistress, (Schneider), who spend an idyllic holiday together at a luxurious villa on the French Riviera. Their holiday weekend is disturbed by a visit from a mutual friend, and his teenage daughter...yah..we never so the original... Parents of our Staff are big fans of actor Alain Delon, one of our team member's mom said when Delon was young he was cute..he remind her the American actor Rob Lowe, she says "Rob have Alain's eyes, whatever it means..lol"...that actor was well known in East Europe. Do your parents familiar with Alain Delon? Can you ask them? Although, we never heard of the well know actress Romy Schneider, till now, she became famous in Hollywood in late 70's. Yesterday, we did a research about her life and career...her daughter still alive and work as model/ actress of independent movies. Did you know that film "Vice Versa" (1988) is original for "Freaky Friday" (2003) Vice Versa - an 80s comedy http://centerstage.net/stumped/reviews/vice-versa.shtml ..we don't remember how do they switch, but it's not a fortune cookie..In America, in late 80's there were not so many Chinese Cousin Restaurants...may be that's why? This film about a workaholic father and his 11-year-old son who switch bodies, the son plays most of our staff's favorite actor Fred Savage (he was popular by his awesome TV series "Wonder Years" set in 60's America..and viewer could hear what main character thinks, only the "thinking voice" of a boy was an adult man's voice..) Fred Savage site: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000625/ the fun fact that he's filming new films, that we never heard of...cause right now, you won't find any publication or media coverage of Fred, as any popular celebrity..may be, but he's not that popular after all..we don't know why....the last movie we saw, was "Austin Powers: The Goldmember"...What was the latest movie you seen with Fred Savage? In "Swimming Pool"(2003) the writer plays, the actress Charlotte Rampling. She's from Britain, can also speak French, and now well known in US. The first movie our staff saw with her was 'Tis a Pity... ( Italy; 1972) it's a thriller set in old times about a brother in love with his sister, taboo for any time & also a fresh movie-puzzle Under the Sand (2000) by abstract film director François Ozon ( ^ o ^ ) drama about a woman who believes that her husband is still living with her after he mysteriously disappears from a beach in France.

Pascal Compiler Help
by Tony Crouch 09 Sep '03

09 Sep '03

Hi all, I'm a beginner to Pascal and also to the linux operating system, i've done some C++ programming before and am not wanting to discover my roots by relearning some pascal stuff ... just for something different. My question is in regards to compiling pascal programs, i'm guessing that pascal programs can be made with an ordinary plain-text editor with the extension .pas. I'm using Linux Red Hat 8 and i'm guessing that there'd be some among you who've had some exposure to C++ (or C) and you'll know that to compile a C++ program in Linux you go to terminal (or within your text editor ... i.e. emacs or xemacs) and type in g++ example.cpp -Wall -o example, where example.cpp is the text file and example is the executable file that results from compiling. Could someone please inform me as to what the command line is to compile a pascal program on linux red hat 8. Cheers, Tony Crouch

My father had this same problem. I seems that the compiler misbehaves (buffer-length/line-length interaction problem?) when the source text itself contains Mac-style end-of-lines (carriage returns only). Possibly the problem only occurs when the source file contains MIXED Mac-style and Unix-style end-of-lines. This can happen when you switch editor, or when you modify a program taken from elsewhere. I have not investigated it deeply. The problem disappeared when the source files where fully converted to Unix-style end-of-lines (Line feeds only). A decent text editor like BBEdit will make this change in two clicks. Tom

Re: Sqrt problem
by Silvio a Beccara 03 Sep '03

03 Sep '03

Hi Frank, after some time, I spotted the error. It doesn't have anything to do with arrays, but really with a negative sqrt argument in another place of the code, which I hadn't seen before. I now have another problem: I need to extend the size of a dynamic vector, passed as VAR (i.e. by reference) to a procedure. I need to preserve the elements of the vector to be resized. I use NEW each time inside the procedure, and it works, but this fills up the stack very quickly, and I run out of memory. Do you have any suggestion?

Re: [churchgrowthideas] How to Spark the Older Members
by Larry Dodge 01 Sep '03

I'd go very slowly. And you could use the Hybel's curriculum on Being a Contagious Christian and Being a Contagious Church. One of the things I have learned in ministry is that each church has an 'esteem'. If it is low, they won't invite anyone. If it is high, they will knock themselves out. Some things that increase esteem are making the building look good. This can be done with paint and some new carpet, etc. And you will begin to see them shine. I know that inviting to church is not witnessing, but it is a start. Maybe someone else will have some more ideas.

gpc --version confusion and "external name"
by Anders Lindén 01 Sep '03

01 Sep '03

gpc --version is not coherent among different versions of gpc, i.e. they do not provide me with output that is comparable to each other. I have access to one gpc installation that is on a sparc system. It gives me the output: gpc --version 2.8.1 This is a very laconic output compared to the one I get on my cygwin version (I was installing a binary distribution): gpc --version gpc 20030323, based on gcc-3.2.2 Copyright (C) 1987-2003 Free Software Foundation, Inc. This is free software; see the source for copying conditions. There is NO warranty; not even for MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. This output also reveals that gpc is based on gcc. However, I thought gpc was a freestanding compiler that did not precompile anything (according to "The GNU Pascal Manual", which is something I was able to get in PDF). Is it based on gcc or not? Now on the 2.8.1 system, I have problems compiling source that uses the extension "external" in combination with a "name" directive like this: procedure foo; external name 'foo'; I have to keep it like this instead: procedure foo; external; However, this means that I come in trouble when I want to compile source that some people have made. My questions are: How is the version system working with gpc? Which is the latest stable gpc and does it use the "extern name 'foo'" extension? Which is the latest unstable gpc? How unstable is it? Is there a switch to actually enable "extern name 'foo' in all versions? Thanks a lot for your attention, and I also want to thank the people that already have helped me on this list. /Anders
