Topic: Lazarus on 64bit Linux
Found a problem on one of my machines which is running 64bit Ubuntu 8.04 and the corresponding 64bit Lazarus (0.9.24 and 0.9.26).
Everything seems to compile OK but it looks like there is a problem with integer size assumed to be 32 bit, causing a Segfault.
Same code works fine under 32bit Lazarus.
The debugger showed TSQLitePassDataset.GetBookmarkFlag to be where the fault occured.
I assumed that 64bit Lazarus took the construct 'PInteger(Buffer)^' to be a 64bit integer and I tried the simplistic approach of changing all such references to something like a DWORD pointer, but that did not get me much further.
I try and do some debugging if you have any suggestions of what else might need changing to make the component more 64bit friendly (assuming thats what the problem is).
Regards,
John.
