pascal?

hmm

i have a question.

after i wrote a program in pascal

i want to export an EXE file

but i dont know how

so can some body tell me??

Can you, or someone else, explain what is meant with exporting an EXE file?

hmmm


for ex.

you wrote a program
and you want show it to someone
at his computer
but he dont have pascal

so in C or C++ and many more
after you compiled and built yor code
it automatcly makes an EXE file

but in pascal its not

you must do it manualy
and i dont know how

Errr

Don't know pascal, but I just found this...

* How do I make EXE files with Turbo Pascal?

In Turbo Pascal, in the compile menu, select COMPILE TO MEMORY. Open the menu
again, and it should say COMPILE TO DISK. Then select COMPILE, and it will
create the file XXX.EXE, where XXX is the name of your .PAS file.

oohhh


thanx a lot

ill try this

To GodLike:

Now I understand. English is not my first language and I didn't know that exporting an EXE is the same as compiling a program.

Just like C and C++ there are also compilers for Pascal. I don't know what you mean with manually, perhaps using the command-line? Most compilers can be used on the command line. A lot of compilers come with an IDE which has a nice menu.

If you don't use Turbo Pascal, which compiler do you use?

hmm


i am using turbo pascal

but
exporting an EXE is not the same as Compile

The Compile just run your program

and exportin an EXE
is like BUILD or MAKE

its create an EXE file

even in VC++ 6
you click on BUILD

and english is not my first languge too

and hmm

i dont sure that its rigth to say EXPORT EXE

but what the heck


and RobR - it worked
thanx

Wow. I got something right!!!

>The Compile just run your program

If I am correct then compiling source-code means creating binaries of that code.

A make-file is used by the make-utility, the make-file contains information on how to build/make the program. This requires compiling and linking. So I think compiling is a process within the make/build-process.

A compiler takes source code and outputs relocatable object code. To make a runable module, the relocatable object needs to be "located", and all the external references resolved. This is normally done by the linker.

Build/Make files/utilities tell the linker what to use to build a module from the variety of relocatable object files it has at it's disposal.

yes yes something like this
