#93 ./configure broken using msys &gcc3.4, SCons anyone?
win9x,I don't have cygwin.
configure seems to create a bad makefile using the msys shell from the MinGW project with gcc3.4,
it compiles something in utils ok,
then makes the src/version.rc
then creates a file with the name of the compiler directives!
then trys to delete it with rm -g, very strange.
but, par for ./configure and libtool, which seems to work only one out of 20 times, for me anyway.
I upgraded libtool I downgraded make to 2.79 then back to 3.81, beyond that I give up.
also tried bcc5.5 which fails after the first compile on the first jump to another makefile. not sure why
but I may not have bcc setup well enough to work without additional path settings.
I did manage to get version 1.6 stable built and the calculator and other sample programs with SCons.
I am attaching these 2 files. some editing required
and python and scons need to be installed.
with a few more tweeks similar scripts could build the
whole Fox system. give it a try --jobs=3.
search for python +scons and install if required, you may already have them.
there is a little drop down menu residue left on the screen in the editor and pathfiner, and obvious lack of right click menus,
otherwise I find the example apps very responsive.
thanks to you all.
and why did I not find Fox earlier in my search for a GUI? please turn the stealth off.
SCons scripts to build the dll and calculator, place in ./src and ./calculator
