[M3devel] status report on Windows XP

[Randy Coleburn]

I should restate that these are the packages where "cm3 -build" terminated with an errorlevel set.
 
There are some other packages that do not build because their m3makefile is configured not to build for NT386 platforms, or for some other reason, e.g. X-Windows not available.
 
Regards,
Randy

This report is for Windows XP Professional, Service Pack 3, using Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 Version 9.0.21022.8 RTM, and Microsoft .NET Framework Version 3.5 SP1.
 
I've updated my local sandbox to be current with the CM3 CVS repository at elego.  I've performed a "upgrade.cmd" to upgrade my cm3 compiler to the latest version.
 
I kept running into problems with "scripts\win\do-cm3-std.CMD" stopping short with an error message.
 
So, I built my own "do-cm3.CMD" and used it to rebuild everything.
 
Here are the packages that fail to build (I think most of these are not supported currently on Windows):
m3-sys\m3cc
m3-libs\tcl
caltech-parser\term
caltech-parser\paneman
caltech-parser\paneman\kemacs
caltech-parser\drawcontext\dcpane
caltech-parser\drawcontext\kgv
caltech-parser\parserlib\klexlib
caltech-parser\parserlib\klex
caltech-parser\parserlib\kyacc
caltech-parser\parserlib\kext
caltech-parser\parserlib\parserlib\test
m3-tools\pp
I've also built tested CM3IDE and it seems to work fine on Windows.  I've even tried it with the "examples" folder missing and it still works fine.
 
I'll try to check out how well some of the other packages run as time permits.

Randy Coleburn
