Compiling Mac OS X app from Windows version of New Pascal

Hello,

I recently found out about this amazing FPC based dev tool.

But before I spend any productive or non-productive time with it I wanted it know if it is possible to compile desktop applications using the Windows version of New Pascal or not?

Another thing that I am interested to know is whether it is possible to print reports (using some reporting tool) from it or not in Mac OS X?

Thanks,

Yogi Yang

I haven't tried, but you can:
- Install fpc/lazarus trunk with fpcupdeluxe.
- Install cross-compiler for darwin with fpcupdeluxe.

Re. report, you can http://wiki.freepascal.org/LazReport_Tutorial and Fast Report for Lazarus.

Delphi XE4 Pro on Windows 7 64bit.
Lazarus trunk built with fpcupdelux on Windows with cross-compile for Linux 64bit.

Thanks for the hint.

I will try that out. Actually I am quite new to FPC. I have never heard about fpcupdeluxe.

I think it will take me some time to understand.
