2. Re: Translator
use the -bor flag when translating
ec myprog.ex -bor
ecw myprog.exw -bor
your emake.bat file will then be setup to compile with Borland

3. Re: Translator
I've tried it - it tries to use borland, but gives me an error saying it
can't find the Borland installation dir.
the path to it is put in the %path% variable at boot up, does it have to be
set up elsewhere as well?
thanks,

5. Re: Translator
Hi Stewart
I have only been programming in EU for DOS, but the below may be of
interest for DOS and Win programming.
I had the some problem with Borland. It was easier to use the OpenWatcom
C compiler. The standard Eu->C Watcom translator settings work fine with it.
And the results are very good!
The OpenWatcom site seems to indicate the compiler works with DOS and
Windows - even though the Eu -> C download page seems to suggest it's
only for DOS.
A new version has just come out, v1.1. I haven't tried it yet, the v1.0 works
fine for me (in DOS).
You can find the OpenWatcom compiler at:
www.openwatcom.org
Hope this help.

I just passed the same hassle, so I know very well what you are
talking about:
My Euphoria program compiled by LCC did not run as programmed.
I did not want to download 60MB (Watcom).
The Borland Compiler is just 9MB and it works. The Borland compiler
comes with directories Bin, Examples, Help, Include and Lib in it.
I moved directory Include and Lib in directory Bin!
You don't have to change any path on bootup, just before the
compilation:
"path p:\programm\borland\bin" (it must point to the bin directory).
Then you do: "ecw programname -bor" and afterwords "emake". That works
fine and compiles without probs and runs as programmed.
Good Luck!

Ok, however, there are 3 configuration files in \Bin:,
... which, if they're set up properly, won't require you to move any files
to any other directories.
- bcc32.cfg
- brc32.cfg
- ilink32.cfg

I just set up bcc32.cfg and ilink32.cfg following Borlands readme.
Works.
What is brc32.cfg for?

The Translator searches your path for a Borland
directory name that contains a pattern like:
...\BCC...
If you install Borland in a non-standard place,
the Translator won't find it. This has come up a
few times before. In the Mailing List Search try:
Posted by:
rds
Keywords:
borland install path
Or click here:

brc32.cfg is for the resource compiler ( path_to_stuff, etc.) . Some users
like to separate resources from their 'code' folder, I guess.
Btw, add the following two lines in bcc32.cfg, to ensure 'complete' code
compatibility with Win95/98, and older NT's, if you like.
-DWINVER=0x0400
-D_WIN32_WINNT=0x400
12. Re: Translator
Thanks for the help.
I've realised i can't use my version with Borland with it anyway - it is
only version 2.01
it doesn't understand most of the command line switches.
