<DIV>My Reactor v4.1 CD has a source directory, but this folder does not contain the sources for the compiler or Reactor, just the libraries et al.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Here is a list of the archives in that folder:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>BINUTILS.TGZ<BR>m3-comm.TGZ<BR>m3-db.TGZ<BR>M3-DEMO.TGZ<BR>M3-GAMES.TGZ<BR>M3-LCTRN.TGZ<BR>m3-libs.TGZ<BR>M3-MAIL.TGZ<BR>M3-OBLIQ.TGZ<BR>M3-PKGTL.TGZ<BR>M3-TOOLS.TGZ<BR>m3-ui.TGZ<BR>m3-www.TGZ<BR>M3CC.TGZ<BR>M3GDB.TGZ</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>There is also a CONTRIB folder with the following:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>CVSUP<BR>IDLM3<BR>M2TOM3<BR>M3DDD<BR>M3PC<BR>M3TOMIF<BR>SRC-M3</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>If Farshad is ok with it, I can send you these files, but I would need his approval because we licensed this product from Critical Mass.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>On a side note, I just built a new laptop computer from a fresh install of XP Pro. I got the latest cm3 from the repository and rebuilt everything. On this platform, my pixmaps show up with a "yellow" color everywhere "white" would normally show. This is strange behavior. I checked the .lst file and it is showing as a GUI program and the "hand.obj" is included. Any ideas?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Since Jay has made good progress on fixing some of my major gripes, I am trying to use the new (current) cm3 for my project that is due for delivery at the end of July. The new garbage collector seems to work much better on Windows than the one from 4.1. Since we don't have an official stable release right now, I am going to have to draw a line in the sand at some point soon and take a snapshot of the cm3 source tree as the "official" development environment for future support of my project deliverables.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>This latest problem with pixmaps on one platform and with CM3IDE on all XP platforms I've tested so far is disturbing. As soon as I can get a handle on these problems, I think I am going to freeze my development environment for this project unless someone comes up with a major fix/change.</DIV>

I don't think 4.1 is accurately marked.<BR>> In particular, I don't think the 4.1 Stackx86.m3 is what 4.1 <BR>> actually shipped.<BR>><BR>> 3) Or confirm my analysis that leads to the "accusation"? It was tedious.<BR><BR>I don't think that a complete 4.1 code set was ever imported into<BR>the CVS CM3 repository; at least I don't remember we got the complete<BR>4.1 code from Farshad Nayeri. What we got was 5.1 and it wasn't even<BR>compilable by any existing M3 compiler. The gcc backend was so old<BR>that it wasn't usable on any system we had. I think we extensively used<BR>PM3 for booting and even incorporated some of PM3's code where<BR>necessary.<BR><BR>I remember that I had several evaluation CDs from CM3 some years before<BR>the open source release, so it may be that contents from one of these<BR>CDs were imported as 4.1. I'm afraid it is not really traceable now.<BR>We never got any versioned code from Critical Mass (I don't know what<BR>they used for version control), only the bare source code.<BR><BR>Olaf<BR>-- <BR>Olaf Wagner -- elego Software Solutions GmbH<BR> Gustav-Meyer-Allee 25 / Gebäude 12, 13355 Berlin, Germany<BR>phone: +49 30 23 45 86 96 mobile: +49 177 2345 869 fax: +49 30 23 45 86 95<BR> <A href="http://www.elegosoft.com">http://www.elegosoft.com</A> | Geschäftsführer: Olaf Wagner | Sitz: Berlin<BR>Handelregister: Amtsgericht Charlottenburg HRB 77719 | USt-IdNr: DE163214194<BR><BR><BR></DIV></BODY></HTML>
