schoolfreeware.com Download Mac OS X for IntelThis version The latest release version is 3.2.2 "Unknown developer" error when installing (Mac OS X 10.7 and later)If you get the message that the FPC installer was created by an unknown developer and cannot be opened, right-click (or ctrl-click) on the installation package and choose "Open" in the contextual menu. If this does not work, you may first have to go to "System Preferences" -> "Security & Privacy" -> "General", and "Allow apps downloaded from: Mac App Store and Identified developers". These workarounds are required because we do not pay Apple 99 euro per year, which would prove you can trust us. Xcode 11+ compatibility (macOS 10.15 Catalina and later)FPC 3.2.2 is qualified for use with Mac OS X 10.4 till macOS 11. Xcode 11+ no longer includes support for compiling Intel 32 bit programs. If you wish to compile such programs, you will have to copy an older Mac OS X SDK from a previous Xcode installation and point the compiler to it with the -XR command line parameter. Xcode 10+ compatibility (macOS 10.14 Mojave and later)FPC 3.2.2 is qualified for use with Mac OS X 10.4 till macOS 11. Xcode 10+ installs some command line file in different locations compared to previous releases. If you already installed FPC under a previous Mac OS X/OS X/macOS version, you will have to reinstall FPC 3.2.2 under macOS 10.14 to get a configuration file that enables the compiler to find the necessary files). See also the section below on how to install the command line tools. Xcode 5+ compatibility (OS X 10.9 and later; for OS X 10.8, see below)FPC 3.2.2 is qualified for use with Mac OS X 10.4 till macOS 11. Xcode 5 and later however no longer install the command line tools by default, which are required by FPC. To install them manually, open "/Applications/Utilities/Terminal", execute xcode-select --installand choose "Install". Afterwards, FPC will function correctly. Xcode 4.3-5.x compatibility (Mac OS X 10.7/OS X 10.8)FPC 3.2.2 is qualified for use with Mac OS X 10.4 till macOS 11. Xcode 4.3 and later however no longer install the command line tools by default, which are required by FPC. To install them manually, open Xcode, go to Preferences, select "Downloads;" and install the "Command Line Tools". Afterwards, FPC will install and function correctly. Xcode 3.2.x-4.2 compatibility (Mac OS X 10.6)FPC 3.2.2 is qualified for use with Mac OS X 10.4 till macOS 11. There is however an issue when compiling dynamic libraries with FPC under Mac OS X 10.6 due to a bug in the Xcode 3.2.x linker. This bug has been fixed in Xcode 4. You can work around the bug in Xcode 3.2.x by using the -k-no_order_initscommand line parameter when compiling a dynamic library. Download the 3.2.2 release in 1 big file:
Back to mirror list How to Install Free Pascal on a Mac OS X Computer Note: if you find a problem with these instructions, please The first step is that you need to install something called Xcode. Xcode is also available via the Internet: http://developer.apple.com/tools/xcode/index.html Just click on "Download Xcode 2.2" . After installing Xcode: * go to www.freepascal.org * click on Download (on the left side of the window) * click on Mac OS X * click on ftp.freepascal.org * click on fpc-2.0.2.powerpc-macosx.dmg This should start the download. After the download is complete, install the program. After the installation is complete: * [Thanks to Daniel H. Steinberg for the next instructions.] Start up a new "terminal" window. [localhost:~] <user name>% * please type this command in this new window, and press ENTER: /usr/local/bin/fpc * You should see a long message (which mentions Free Pascal). If that is the case, then the installation worked - success! But: if the message says "command not found" .... that is not good. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- --- The "bash profile" file ---- [Thanks to Daniel H. Steinberg -- I copied some of these instructions [localhost:~] <user name>% Please carefully type this command: vi .bash_profile [please note the "dot" and the "underscore" in the command] This starts up the "vi" editor program. "vi" is a weird program! Next, press "i". [You won't see an "i" on the screen -- that's OK.] Next, please type this EXACTLY: PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin:. Next, press the Esc key. Next, please type this: :wq ... and then press ENTER. That should cause "vi" to exit ... and you should see the "command prompt" again: [localhost:~] <user name>% Now, let's see if all this worked. Close the terminal window, and open up fpc You should see a long message (which mentions Free Pascal). If that's the case, then please continue with the rest of this document. But: if the message says "command not found" .... that is not good. In your terminal window, please enter this command: mkdir ECS15 This creates a new ECS15 folder, under your "home" folder. Change to that folder: cd ECS15 [These instructions are a little rough, since I don't have a Mac, Now, leave the terminal window open, but please start up a program After it starts up, go to the Format Menu, and choose "Make Plain Text".

Whenever you create After you click on Save, the computer may ask you if you Now, leave the Text Edit window open, but go back to the Terminal window. There, please type this command: ls The "ls" command lists all the files and folders in the current folder. Next, please type this command: fpc hello.pas The "fpc" command invokes the Free Pascal
Compiler, which translates You should see some messages that look something like this: Free Pascal Compiler version 2.0.0 [2005/08/17] for i386 Now type this command: hello That will *run* your new program, which should simply Hello, world. That's all it does. If that worked, great -- so far, so good. Use Text Edit to create another file. (Remember to use the Format program Sample; Save this file in your ECS15 folder as well. Please name it "sum.pas". Go back to the Terminal window, and try to compile the new file: fpc sum.pas * You should see several messages, like this: Free Pascal Compiler version 2.0.0 [2005/05/08] for i386 * However, you might instead see some "error messages". If so, then check
your program (in the Text Edit window) for errors. * Try to run the program (in the Terminal window). Type this command: sum Your program should print this message: Enter two numbers: Go ahead and enter 2 numbers (separated by a space), then press ENTER, * If that works, great! You are done.
