Hi,
My first attempt at svn checkout and build of latest Eu40 (3025) I'm following directions from http://openeuphoria.org/wiki/euwiki.cgi?diff=Compiling40&3 and I get this: ...
There is a step missing from those instructions. You need to get a recent binary edition of Euphoria 4. You can get this from http://jeremy.cowgar.com/eubins/
Euphoria 4 source cannot be built from Eu3 or older version 4 editions because the current source contains things that are only in the current Eu4 syntax.
Download the most recent binary archive that is relevant for your system, Windows in your case, and extract the files to your Euphoria 4 binary directory.
Once you have that done and you ensure that the Euphoria 4 directory is in your PATH rather than Euphoria 3, you can use the 'wmake' command to build from the source files. From then on, if you want to keep up to date, you will need to SVN update the source files regularly and build after each update.
