StormC Install Problem

[DBAlex]

Hey, I get the following error while trying to install StormC, downloaded from: http://www.amigafuture.de/downloads.php?view=detail&df_id=664&sid=eda022888854e0ec13bc9bf109c315cd

The error is the following:


I've tried re-installing the latest Installer from Aminet but it didn't work, I've also tried using the Installer that was supplied in the StormC package but it didn't work...

I just wondered if anyone knows whats wrong? My A1200 is pretty standard: 030 @ 50mhz w/ 50Mhz FPU, OS3.9, 4GB Hard Drive, The only thing that is quite odd is that i'm softkicking with the v3.1 A1200 ROM so that I can run OS3.9... However this shouldn't really effect software installs.

Hope someone knows where im going wrong, thanks for any help!

OK I understood most of that put what does "Create the StormC directory were you want to install StormC. Assign it as well. Part way through the install process you will need to re-assign it." mean...

So I create StormC in e.g. Work:StormC and then do "assign StormC: Work:StormC" but what does the second part mean "Part way through the install process you will need to re-assign it.":

- when do I re-assign the directory, and what to?

Thanks for the help so far though!  8-)

Yup - I'm usually not this good at understanding stuff but your instructions were alright  :lol: right, gonna go and give your suggestions a go and I will report back with what happens...

(This also means I'm missing the FA cup final, but I think Amiga-ing is more important atm...  :-D )

Hehe, Alex.

OK I followed everything you said but now I get a new error:

Interpreter: Executing non-funcion in line 4

Thanks if you know how to fix that...  :-(  :-(  :-(

Ok mine says Installer 43.3?

I installed this version of Installer: http://aminet.net/package/util/misc/Installer-43_3

I thought it was the latest !, should I re-copy my installer from the OS3.9 CD?

Yup! It's working fine now! I can compile my C++ apps which is cool... and also I can make some nice amiga apps...

One thing though... How do I run the Examples? because when I choose open project and navigate to their dir's there isn't a project file to open? Other than that its pretty fantastic tbh, I wasn't expecting a full IDE where you have an Errors window, and you can stop/pause programs etc.... It's almost Visual Studio on an Amiga :lol:

Also, how recent is StormC 3? Will the code be as good as anything produced with GCC (G++) ? (Specifically C++, but how quick is the C code too?)

Also can you compile for different CPU's (E.g. 68000, 020, 030, 040 etc...)?

But yeah, overall pretty impressed!

Cheers, Alex.  :-)
