Not a big problem, but I'd like to test 4.0 and I run into a compile error.
I don't have 4.0 so I am trying to build from build 4.0 from 3.1.1 and I think the method is broken.
I'm using the instructions on this page modified for my system: http://openeuphoria.org/wiki/euwiki.cgi?Compiling40

I've only tried it on Windows Vista.

svn co http://rapideuphoria.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/rapideuphoria/trunk EU40 

After updating EU40 with this command or equivalent, I use TortoiseSVN. I run these commands:

C:\Users\Public\EU40\source> SET EUINC=C:\Users\Public\EU40\include 
C:\Users\Public\EU40\source> wmake -f makefile.wat clean 
C:\Users\Public\EU40\source> wmake -f makefile.wat distclean 
C:\Users\Public\EU40\source> configure --with-eu3 
C:\Users\Public\EU40\source> wmake -f makefile.wat 
 
.... messages .... 
 
        wmake -f makefile.wat exw.exe EX=..\bin\exwc.exe EU_TARGET=int. OBJDIR=i

        ..\bin\exwc.exe -i ..\include revget.ex 
Can't open -i.exw 
 
Press Enter

Error(E02): Make execution terminated 
Error(E42): Last command making (interpreter) returned a bad status 
Error(E02): Make execution terminated

Error(E02): Make execution terminated 
Error(E42): Last command making (all) returned a bad status 
Error(E02): Make execution terminated 

Using wmake with EU311\source works fine, but not with EU40\source.

Note: Euphoria 3.1.1 is installed under C:\Users\Public\EU311

I think the problem is "-i" is a 4.0 command and the version of exwc that I have is 3.1.1
It would be impractical to go back to revision 300 or so where it might work as current trunk revision is in the 1000s.
If I'm going to be able to test 4.0a, I'm going to need a better option.

svn co http://rapideuphoria.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/rapideuphoria/trunk EU40 

C:\Users\Public\EU40\source> SET EUINC=C:\Users\Public\EU40\include 
C:\Users\Public\EU40\source> wmake -f makefile.wat clean
