Problem:

I am having trouble getting my Windows application to link without
errors. It is a Pascal program and I am using floating-point
calculations. I am specifying the following libraries to the linker
and I am receiving unresolved externals such as "_fpmath" and
"_fptaskdata":

paslibw pascal math llibc /nod

Response:

You need to include the following as your linker library:

altmath paslibw pascal mlibc libh/NOD

The altmath should be linked first to override the Pascal library that
would disable the floating point. Also, with Pascal Versions 3.x, only
the alternate math package is supported in Windows.
