1. Euphoria 3.0.2 Release Candidate for Windows/DOS

I've put together a new install package, version 3.0.2, for DOS and Windows. I'd like a few volunteers to check it out, before I move on to creating the install packages for Linux and FreeBSD, and updating the RDS website. You can get it here (2Mb): http://www.rapideuphoria.com/uploads/e30setup.exe The changes are noted in relnotes.htm (or relnotes.doc). This release is mainly to fix 2 significant bugs in 3.0.1: 1. Translated code for Windows that uses multitasking was accidently broken in 3.0.1 (but not 3.0.0). 2. There was a subtle storage allocation bug in the interpreter (mainly affecting exw.exe) that could bite you in fairly rare cases, usually involving deep recursion.

Sir, did you forget to add this one? Is there a clear, official todo-list? WIN Translator Support for MinGW and Pelles C 164K Konstantinos Tampouris Nov 5/06 Support for two more free compilers for Windows: MinGW and Pelles C. Both compilers can target WinCE, so this support brings Euphoria one step closer to targeting WinCE too. All 3.0.1 source code changes included. (RDS will look into adding this code to the official Translator).

At the last minute, I changed the version in the source (global.e), but I got distracted and forgot to actually recompile/repackage the .exe's. OK, That's fixed. I've quickly updated the setup file: http://www.rapideuphoria.com/uploads/e30setup.exe Let me know of any more mistakes. Thanks! Rob Craig Rapid Deployment Software http://www.RapidEuphoria.com

I'm hoping that the author of that code, or some other interested person, will test that code, and check it in to SourceForge. The same goes for Alban's Mac port, Juergen's euphoria.iss improvements, and some other improvements. I want to get more developers working on this, and not have people relying on me exclusively. If I add those things myself, I'll probably be expected to maintain them as well. I'd like to see more developers step forward. TortoiseSVN is really quite easy to install and use. I'll eventually have plenty to do just to ensure the quality and integrity of the overall package. Regards, Rob Craig Rapid Deployment Software http://www.RapidEuphoria.com

But I found if I try to put it in F: (which is where I want it) I still get tons of "Would you like to overwrite the existing file?" [YES] [No]. No [Yes to All]. And my mouse finger got so tired so I closed it down with the task manager. Don Cole

I recommend that we reorganize to the standard: branches/ tags/ trunk/ The svn docs do a pretty good job of explaining why this is a good thing, but in brief, normal development would happen in the trunk. If someone wanted to try something experimental, or just something that we didn't want to affect the trunk, they could copy their stuff into branches, develop there and merge it back later. The 'tags' directory can be used to save the code as it was at a certain point in time, such as a release. It'll make it easier to see what was what at that point. Matt

That is if one already has Euphoria install and/or wants to install it in a different directory than C:\Euphoria. He should: 1.) Change the name of the existing directory to fuphoria. 2.) Copy that directory and rename it buphoria (a back up). 3.) Install the set-up; there should be no conflict because the old Euphoria directory no longer exists. 4.) Using Windows (and I suppose Linux would work also #1) Drop and drag the new set-up folder into the fuphoria folder. When it asks "If the same file or folder exists, replace [Yes] [No] [Yes to All] select [Yes to All]. 5.) Rename the fuphoria folder back to euphoria. One now has the old Euphoria folder with the updates. In the event that you have changed or added stuff to some of the include files. You may want to drag and drop the include folder from buphoria folder back into the euphoria folder using the [Yes to All] feature in Windows. Whew! #1 As for Linux I never got into it because I could never get the winmodem to work with Linux. I tried all the help files and discussion groups and nobody seem to be able to do it. Or tell me how to do it. But that's a topic for another forum. Don Cole

Hell even Solaris 10 is free. The latter OSes require "hardware" modems, as opposed to win-doze centric "software" modems. Hell, if you're hard-pressed, I'll got a U.S. Robotics 56.K vI-don't-know-what that I'll give you. -- duke SW of Calgary - near the Rockies http://www.rootshell.be/~perlster/euphoria/

I now have high speed DSL so winmodem is not a factor anymore. It uses Ethernet. There was a time when I wanted to get both Windows and Linux up and running on the same machine. Which I did but everybody said to buy an external modem to fix this problem. And being a cheap mother I didn't want to do that. Now I've dumped the Linux stuff and lost interest in the whole project. I'm not having any problems with Windows. Again thanks for your offer. Don Cole

I'll look into that after I get 3.0.2 finalized. Regards, Rob Craig Rapid Deployment Software http://www.RapidEuphoria.com
