Looks like i cannot make a dll, WATCOM isn't set, and there's no data about what to set it to.
I've the feeling that Watcom was being deprecated as supported from Euphoria ...
Yes it is being deprecated. This is because Watcom does not, and will not be, supporting 64-bit architectures. We use GCC on linux and MingW on Windows.
I uninstalled Watcom some time ago now so I'm not able to help with the exact issue reported.
Yet win4.0.4 ships with WATCOM, which isn't working, and nothing tells me what the environment variable WATCOM is.

I thought that should have been set by the installer (it's been a long time since I've installed Watcom or euphoria on Windows). Either way, the WATCOM variable should point to the WATCOM directory. On my VM, I have:
C:\>set watcom WATCOM=C:\WATCOM
Personally, I like to translate using the -makefile option, since it preserves the C code automatically, and makes it easy to tweak stuff and rebuild.

Derek seems to work exclusively in 4.1 now. 4.1.0 will have OpenWatcom support removed. The last 4.0 release, 4.0.5, will be the last release to have OpenWatcom support.
The 4.0.4+OW installer should have taken care of this automatically, and the variable will be set after you reboot.
The environment variable is documented, just not by us:
ftp://openwatcom.mirrors.pair.com/readme.txt

Then why not include some way to provide Eu downloaders with the correct compiler instead of the incorrect one?

I don't reboot computers for the heck of it. Plus i don't use just one version of Eu, so i don't want default pointers.
The environment variable is documented, just not by us:
That's odd, because Eu stresses the ability to convert to C code, even to the point of not having features that work in the interpreter, because they won't work in the translated code. Like the task_yield in http.e. You stress being able to compile, but provide no support for compiling other than to say "go read compiler sites"?

It's hard to know how to respond to this, given that I don't think you specified how you installed Watcom, but I suspect you're familiar enough with environment variables and probably with installing software on Windows to understand what's going on here.

Being able to compile translated euphoria code assumes that you have an appropriate compiler installed. It sounds like you haven't met this requirement for some reason.

But i did run the installer provided by OpenEuphoria on the download pages. I elected to not have environment variables set, because they'd be set to Eu v4.0.4 specs in every dos window i ever opened after that. I will be happy to set the environment so the translator works properly, if i only knew what to set to what, and that data isn't provided by OpenEu, and Watcom isn't in the business of providing Eu-specific environmental variables.

Then you need to run setenv-ow.bat as detailed in http://openeuphoria.org/ticket/575.wc and http://openeuphoria.org/forum/m/104674.wc and http://openeuphoria.org/forum/m/104896.wc

Yes. We're a small dev team and it is easier for us to rely on the much bigger OpenWatcom team for OpenWatcom documentation rather than trying to reinvent the wheel here.
even to the point of not having features that work in the interpreter, because they won't work in the translated code. Like the task_yield in http.e.
I don't remember this. task_yield works in translated code, and even if this was not the case, it is a simple ifdef to get the benefits of task_yield only in interpreted mode.
(task_yield does not work when translated as a shared object, but like I said above and on IRC, it's a simple ifdef.)

Hmm, actually the installer should have a prompt that informs you about the setenv-ow.bat option. If it doesn't (or if it's in a place that's easy to miss) then that's a bug in the installer that needs to be fixed. But running c:\euphoria\setenv-ow.bat in the command prompt where you want to run the translator should do the trick.

Status: -1 means it couldn't create the process for wcc386. Typically this means that wcc386 is not in your path, but it should have been since you ran setenv-ow.bat
Double check that wcc386.exe exists in c:\euphoria\WATCOM\binnt or c:\euphoria\WATCOM\binw and also look at setenv-ow.bat to make sure that it sets the path correctly. Importantly, check the percent signs to make sure that none are missing.

Dosrescue is for getting all the old DOS pixel graphics routines to work on other operating systems. That has nothing to do with what Kat is doing.
I would recommend using the -makefile option to translate. That way the translator won't eat any of the output from Watcom.
> euc -dll -makefile kats_tasks.e Translating code, pass: 1 2 3 4 generating 41.c files were created. To build your project, type make -f kat_tasks.mak > wmake -f kat_tasks.mak
Yes, it says make, but Watcom's make is actually wmake. Of course, I don't know what Watcom was encountering, but in translating this sort of thing, I've run into problems with name collisions from my translated euphoria routines and routines from the euphoria run time library (eu.lib - which the dll links).

I don't know (I'd guess either Jeremy or Shawn). But I'm pretty sure you're computer savvy enough to not require this level of hand holding. Perhaps your next nick could be helpless.
But looking at the installer code, it seems like you must have installed watcom some other way at some point to get it to install into the root of the C drive instead of where euphoria gets installed. It's not terribly surprising to me that mixing different installer stuff doesn't work seamlessly.

OK, then if you ran it, and assuming it installed to c:\euphoria, then you should have c:\euphoria\watcom. Do you have that? All of the Watcom stuff should be in that directory. The installer sets environment variables for Watcom, too. It adds the WATCOM variable and also puts the appropriate directories in the PATH.
Since your machine apparently doesn't have any of this, I hope you can see why I'm skeptical about the installer that you used. Now, it's also perfectly fine to use Watcom that you've installed yourself. I have this on my Windows machines. The normal Watcom installer (IIRC) sets the PATH and WATCOM and INCLUDE variables. You don't have any of these either.
Maybe that's because you didn't reboot or something. Sorry, we can't change the way Windows works. I'm not sure what else could be the problem.

We're quite sorry that there is a bug in the batch file that comes with the installer.

1) It's not my bat file. I don't consider it my responsibility. I don't do Windoze development, someone else broke it (and someone else will have to fix it).
2) I don't recall blaming you. If you believe this is true, I'd like to see a direct quote.
3) I blame windoze for a lot of things. So does windows on freenode.

I thought you were objective enough and man enough to applogise for suggesting i ran the installer wrong, set up a separate WATCOM installation wrong, and should use the nick "helpless".
Please submit a bug ticket to make sure that it gets properly fixed. In your ticket, it would be best to explain the fix, as this will make the process easier for the maintainer.
Matt
Get serious, why would i want to tackle the entire dev team again over a bug i have reported and any of you can read here? I've tried to get bug fixes done before, but you didn't fix them and instead you ran me off. To go to the trouble of making a ticket is to go looking for more hassle.

I'm sorry. I guess I misinterpreted your answer, "There's a wcc386.exe in \WATCOM\binnt," to the request to, "Double check that wcc386.exe exists in c:\euphoria\WATCOM\binnt or c:\euphoria\WATCOM\binw," as evidence that something other than the bundled installer put Watcom onto your system. I suppose that you didn't technically actually say, "No, it's not in the path you asked about."
I was assuming that you were trying to give straight and helpful answers, and I suppose I read too much into that statement, and was misled in the process. When you give evasive answers like that in the future, I suppose I'll just have to repeat the question until you answer it (or at least until you decide that your evasiveness is evidence that no one wants to help you and refuse to provide any more non-answers).

I have stopped trying to understand your motives. You demand we fix a bug about which you cannot give accurate details or give straight answers to simple questions.
I'm just stating the obvious: if you don't put a ticket in, it's more likely to fall through the cracks. I can only assume that you're not really interested in getting it fixed. This goes for pretty much any bug or improvement that anyone finds or desires. I would say the same thing to anyone else on the forum, and have done so many times.

I have not use this phrase "c:\euphoria\" to describe my Eu installation, and the path "c:\euphoria\" is not required to install any Euphoria version. While i have a "c:\euphoria\", the watcom path/files are not there, as that is not where i told version 4.0.4 to install. The most useless and truthful and direct answer to your question is "no, there is no watcom anything in "c:\euphoria\". The fact there is no watcom there is also totally immaterial to the issue at hand, and in the spirit of your question, the most material and (also) most truthful responce is the one i gave. Or i could tell you it's not in "c:\euphoria\", and we could try till hell freezes over to put WATCOM in c:\euphoria\ and run it against files in c:\Euphoria-4.0.4\ with the combination of wrong path (as set in the downloaded install file) and wrong path (as in that's not where my 4.0.4 files are). You prefer to call me evasive and not answering the question, then you cannot question me nick'ing myself "useless" or "helpless" or any other nick you believe describes me.

I have no motives other than making the program work as advertised. You said to follow your steps (which i'll do except for rebooting, that's a waste of time and not necessary), and i followed your steps, and i relied on the buggy setenv-ow.bat, and it did not do what it was purported to do. I cannot help it that no one else found this bug in the years it's been released. And i didn't write the code that does the translating, so i can't know where it expects to find files, so i am not likely to guess correctly what the correct PATH is.
I am not demanding you fix anything. I want my installation to work. Please feel free to continue saying the install program works correctly with the bugs.

And i am guessing that after reporting it here, and in the irc channel, if you don't fix it, i am assuming you are not interested in fixing it. My experiences tell me i don't want to go head-to-head (again) against the dev team to get the bugs fixed in the released version.

No. The most material you could have given would have been something like, "Actually, when I installed, I installed to another directory, and there is a watcom directory there." I guess you like giving pedantically correct answers and watching others misinterpret them due to them having to post questions whose assumptions exactly match details about your system that only you would know.

ZOMFG. Then why don't you drop the passive aggressive routine and try to give more helpful answers? People (especially Jim and I) have been trying to help you. It's really hard when you refuse to help yourself by assuming that any answer that makes bad assumptions is evidence of persecution and not, oh, I don't know, bad assumptions or a mistake?
I am not demanding you fix anything. I want my installation to work. Please feel free to continue saying the install program works correctly with the bugs.
I don't think I ever said the installer was bug free. I don't think anyone else said the installer was bug free. I think you gave misleading answers that made it difficult / impossible to diagnose. I'll have to get my psychic debugger looked at, because clearly it was on the fritz today.

I am thinking that changing the topic to what's in C:\euphoria\ isn't helpful and is a waste of time, but that IS what you asked about. I tried to stay on topic, which is the bat file wasn't working. The bat file was incorrect, and apparently has been for years. The bat file would not have worked no matter what the path to \WATCOM\. Discussing c:\euphoria\ is like telling me to run DOSRESCUE to fix the problem. You know euphoria can be installed in different places, i gave you my c:\path in irc and in this forum:
C:\Euphoria-4.0.4>setenv-ow.bat C:\Euphoria-4.0.4>path PATH=c:\Euphoria-4.0.4\bin;WATCOMPATH C:\Euphoria-4.0.4>Both you and jim answered my post with my stated path, and then went on about c:\euphoria\. And you are still hung up on that.

Folks this is the kind of thing to expect when reporting bugs. You'll get beaten to death about the cloud of stuff all around the bug, whether or not there is anything wrong in the cloud, and then you'll be attacked personally. It's been this way for years. And the bug is likely to stay in place.

I'm sorry. I don't want to be angry. I really dislike getting into this sort of a thread. I was using the other name suggestions to lash out, because I thought they described a pattern in your behavior. It's frustrating, because every thread comes back to you accusing me (and others) of intentionally disregarding anything you do or say, which I think is clearly and obviously wrong.

Instead of giving exact batch files, it would be better to give instructions like:
"Make sure you have the path of......set to....." before you proceed.
"Install file ...... in the directory where you have ......., etc etc"
Anybody working at this level of software should know enough about batch files to create their own, and should have enough knowledge about Paths and environment variables.
