Compiling EiffelStudio on WinXP:
This section summarizes the so far rather painful process of compiling EiffelStudio. The platform for which the following description applies is MS Windows XP SP2 using the MSDN PSDK-x86.exe and the free MS C-compiler. The system was set up according to the description which can be found at: [[1]].
The compilation process follows the basic steps described at: [[2]].
Milestones
M1 June 12, 2006
Installed the new release 5.7.59395 announced at [[3]]
Modified the automatic build scripts[[4]].
This led to a version of EiffelStudio that was able to create new basic projects. For some mysterious reasons the debugger worked also for simple projects, but nobody else could replicate this. Hence, it is not clear whether this debugger version was running correctly.
M2 June 16, 2006
Installed new release 5.7.59623 because it was recommended on es-devel and the previous version began to choke on current checkouts.
