1. Euphoria to C problem
Hi all,
I down loaded the Euphoria to C translater 2.2 Beta - 1.
Ran it on one of my small progs, then when I run the created EXE file
the window displays with everything in it and then promptly dissappers.
I'm using WIN98SE, LCC and Eu2.2 - Any clues what went wrong.
Thanks
Tony

2. Re: Euphoria to C problem
There are many problems with the translator an win32lib
working together > especially the LCC.
If you have the registered version you can try to trace the
problem but, good luck.
Your EDS?
You have to close each open database seperately.

Hi Tony,
UPX is a packer for executables, you use on an exe file and get one smaller
exe aboout 30% of the original size, depends on your choices. It doesn't
have a perceivable impact on start time, better than that if the file has
to be transferred by a network it should start faster. It's free for
personal or commercial use and the only bad thing I read about it was
something about that it doesn't let your programs benefit from some caching
when they are compressed, I don't remember exactly but it doesen't seem
important to me.
I first heard about it when Euphoria 2.2 was released and the size of EXW
and the final bound program decreased considerably.
You can get it at
http://upx.tsx.org
I did some minor modifications to use a generic bat when compiling and also
compress the resulting exe.
@echo compiling with BORLAND
@cd %1
@bcc32 -tW -q -w- -O2 -5 -a4 -IC:\BORLAND\BCC55\include
-LC:\BORLAND\BCC55\lib %2.c @objfiles.lnk
@del *.tds > NUL
@del *.obj > NUL
@del *.c > NUL
@upx %2.exe
@if not exist %2.exe goto done
@echo *************************
@echo Ready ...
@echo *************************
:done

UPX sucks.
Use PKLite instead.
It even compresses DLLs.
