Installing GPC binary on Windows 95/NT

Wed, 23 Jul 1997 19:00:32 -0400


I downloaded the binary distribution for gpc: 
gpc-2.0i386-cygwin32-b17.1.zip
and unzipped it into a directory.  (This is all the installation
instructions on the GPC WWW site said to do.)  I added the \bin
subdirectory to my PATH.  When I tried to compile the "hello.pas"
program, I got an error message:

GPC.EXE: installation problem, cannot exec 'gpc-cpp': no such file or
directory.
GPC.EXE:  Internal compiler error: program gpc-cpp got fatal signal 127

I actually think this program is looking for the file 'cygwin.dll', but
this file was not included with the distribution.  I did also install
Cygwin32, but that did not help.

Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong?

Thanks!
