1) I'd recommend putting cm3 at the start of the path instead of the end. <BR>
2) Just comment out the offending code to make progress. It's not critical. <BR><BR>
>> C:\CM3_CVS_SourceTree\m3-sys\cm3\src\../NT386.datenow<BR>
<BR>
The code is:<BR>
C:\CM3_CVS_SourceTree\m3-sys\cm3\src\version.quake or such, included by cm3\src\m3makefile.<BR>
<BR>
Does the file exist?<BR>
Does version.quake use "/" or "SL"? If it uses "/", try replacing with SL (and ampersand for string concat).<BR>
<BR>
Could be that a newer binary distributions works better with forward slashes.<BR>

<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Cygwin is only needed for cvs, I think you realize.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Could you send me offline the result of just running "set" after running vcvarsall?</DIV>
<DIV>I'd like to adapt pylib.py to it maybe.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>(I can start from 5.1.6 and will try 4.1 at some point.)</DIV>

<META content="Microsoft SafeHTML" name=Generator>
<DIV>Jay et al:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I've listed below the steps I've undertaken to try and build the current sources on Windows XP. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I've also attached a text file showing the output I got when trying to build everything using Jay's upgrade.cmd script.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Unfortunately, I'm getting a build error (see below).</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Please advise on how to resolve.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>STEPS I TOOK:</DIV>
<DIV>=========</DIV>
<DIV>1. Download Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 Express Edition All-in-One .ISO file and burn to DVD.<BR> <A href="http://www.microsoft.com/express/download/" target=_blank>http://www.microsoft.com/express/download/</A></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>2. Install Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Express Edition from DVD.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>3. Use "Microsoft Update" service to check for updates / service packs.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>4. Download cygwin setup program from <BR> <A href="http://cygwin.com/" target=_blank>http://cygwin.com/</A></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>5. Ran cygwin setup.exe program to install cygwin for all users. <BR> Under "Devel" category, make certain to select "cvs" for installation.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>6. Launch cygwin from desktop icon.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>7. In cygwin command shell window, execute following two commands, making sure to give email as password when prompted for login:<BR> cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@modula3.elegosoft.com:/usr/cvs login<BR> cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@modula3.elegosoft.com:/usr/cvs checkout cm3</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>8. Moved resulting C:\cygwin\home\rcoleburn\cm3 to C:\CM3_CVS_SourceTree<BR> Note that you should replace "rcoleburn" above with your Windows login username.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>9. Download cm3-min-WIN32-NT386-d5.5.0.zip and cm3-min-WIN32-NT386-d5.5.0-symbols.zip from <BR> <A href="http://modula3.elegosoft.com/cm3/download.html" target=_blank>http://modula3.elegosoft.com/cm3/download.html</A></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>10. Unzipped cm3-min-WIN32-NT386-d5.5.0.zip and stored resulting cm3 folder at C:\cm3</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>11. Unzipped cm3-min-WIN32-NT386-d5.5.0-symbols.zip and stored resulting symbols folder at C:\cm3\symbols</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>12. Launch Windows Command Prompt shell. The following steps represent commands executed within this shell.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>13. path %path%;c:\cm3\bin</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>14. "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\vcvarsall.bat"</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>15. cd C:\CM3_CVS_SourceTree\scripts\win</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>16. upgrade.cmd</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
