Re: Current OS X compilation anyone?

Thanks for responding so quickly.
I did get the source file, and yes the previous .mpkg file referenced, from rapideuphoria, was the file I received.
Ah.
gcc is the compiler that comes with the Apple xcode set. When I type gcc -v though, nothing happens. Until I get that fixed then ./configure make won't do anything.
Agreed.
Do I just type in ./configure make /user/foldername?
Uh, no.
You'd type:
./configure --prefix=/user/foldername && make
The && is important.
http://openeuphoria.org/forum/119432.wc is the page I found the unfinished references to compiling.
I had forgotten about that. It's possible that you might experience the same issues trying to build from the source code that bugmagnet found.
Once you get past the gcc issues, you might need to use the information in that thread to get the binary to build.
http://openeuphoria.org/forum/112047.wc is one dead reference to an OS X binary.
That was from the person who used to be our primary OS X developer. He disappeared though, and I guess his website disappeared with him.
http://jeremy.cowgar.com/ is the third party site referenced for bootstrapped eubins that don't exist. Euphoria isn't referenced at all.
Where did you see that site referenced?
eubins has moved to http://openeuphoria.org/eubins/
OSX eubins are at http://openeuphoria.org/eubins/osx/
I tried installing 4.0 binary, but again - nothing happened.
Thanks in advance.

Can you explain the steps you took to install the binary (a copy&paste from the Terminal would help a lot here) as well as the steps you took to verify that it was installed (or verify that nothing had happened and that it was not installed) ?
Remember that installing a binary tar.gz file is a more manual process (you have to extract everything and then manually move stuff into the right place).
