Can I add FreeBSD as Target Platform to Delphi XE2 IDE?

Question

My utility compiles fine with both FPC and Delphi. Now I'd like to make an IDE to run FPC from the GUI for me as Target Platform. I've noticed what some project templates in RAD Studio's repository can into cross-platform build and some can not. So presume it is not hardcoded within IDE but configurable instead. Also, I'm aware what XE2 uses FPC for ARM cross-compilation. Therefore goes the question: can I configure that and how?

UPD: As i figured out, presence of "Target Platform" node in the Project Manager directly reflects presence of more than 1 child nodes under in ProjectName.dproj . Dunno if finding is useful or not.

No. XE2 supports Win32/64 , OSX (using FireMonkey ), and iOS (as you said, using FPC ). It doesn't support any other targets. If you need to compile to another, you need to strictly use FPC and Lazarus ; there's no way to add other targets to the IDE.

If you could add additional targets to the IDE, you'd think Embarcadero would have mentioned that as a pretty valuable piece of marketing information, and they didn't (not even in the new release of XE3).
