FreeBASIC Latest Nightly Builds for FreeBSD [r5357 20100620]

I've never used any variant of BSD but a port is still neat. I think you should put your compilation instructions to the wiki: http://www.freebasic.net/wiki/wikka.php ... SVNCompile

I've completed my basic FreeBSD building guide, see: http://www.freebasic.net/wiki/wikka.php ... SVNFreeBSD

Can anyone confirm if this works for FreeBSD 7.2? I have become interested in this to possibly toy with making some cgi apps on my webserver running FreeBSD 7.2, but have no experience with it at all and don't want to waste any time.

Thanks

It might, but chances are it won't.

If you self-host, give me an account on your box, install linux_base-fc4

I'll see if it does work / what works, etc. and possibly build a 7.x-friendly version.

Note: You'll need to define the __FB_LINUX__ symbol manually (either with #define __FB_LINUX__ in the source or -d __FB_LINUX__ to the compiler at compile time - the FreeBASIC headers know about Linux but not FreeBSD) otherwise your builds will likely fail (depending on what headers you use)

I'm curious... Is a MacOSX port possible too?
