Help with compiler settings please.

[BruceMount]

On computer #1, Eiffel 6.4 works fine.  However, when I try to use it on computer #2 (same project), it works differently.  Both computers are Win XP, service pack 3, 32-bit.

On computer #1, I compile with F7 and run with F5.  This works fine.
On computer #2, I compile with F7, which says it works, but when I press F5, I get the error message "You must compile a project first".

Although both systems were installed the same way, I get the sense that, somehow, I must have changed some setting on computer #2.  Does this right a bell for anyone?  Any suggestions of what setting I need to reset?  (I did Restore Defaults under Tools/Preferences and got the same result.)

Thanks,

--Bruce

Just an-off-the cuff answer.  Are you sure it is the same project?  I have seen this when I accendentally sellected a library ecf instead of the test ecf for that library.  Because in the clusters view the library looks almost like the test project (the test project used the library so the classes were all there.)

More specifically, it's the same source code.  I copied the *.e files from computer #1 to computer #2 and compiled the project.  My project uses Gobo, so I had to add Gobo for it to compile.

It SAYS it compiles when I hit F7, but then says I need to compile when I hit F5.  The same sequence works fine on computer #1.

Both installations are with the Gnu C compiler.

I've also had this happen when the project doesn't have a root creation
procedure set and is set to compile "All classes."

Are the ecf files identical?

Try Project->Freeze (Ctrl-F7).

[Paul Bates [ES]]

I think this might be a bug with the graphical environment and a project using precompiled libraries, when compiling from scratch. You need to freeze your project using the precompiled library. Hit CTRL+F7 and try again.

I cannot speak for why the two environments differ of different systems.

I'll look into this issue.

Paul.

Colin, thanks for chiming in.  As far as I know, I have a root creation procedure (I filled in the box) when I did "create" on a project at the opening screen.  (I did the same thing on both computers.)

Is there some way this could get un-set?

I don't know.  Computer #1 is in a different location.  I have not edited the .ecf, if that's what you are asking

I tried this, but got the "C Compilation Failed" messages (which was the subject or a prior posting).  The full messages were:

Degree 6: Examining System
Degree 5: Parsing Classes
Degree 4: Analyzing Inheritance
Degree 3: Checking Types
Degree 2: Generating Byte Code
Freezing System Changes
Degree -1: Generating Code
Eiffel Compilation Succeeded
Background Workbench C Compilation Launched.
Background Workbench C Compilation Failed.

Thanks to everyone for thinking about this.  It gives me hope that we can figure this out.

What does your C Output window show?

It looks like your precompilation didn't complete correctly.  Try removing
the precompile library.

Hi Bruce

It seems you don't have a precompiled library, or it's in the wrong
place.  Perhaps during installation there was an issue, or you skipped a
step, or selected different precomp options. The F7 thinks it's done
because it only looks at the Eiffel compilation step and that succeeds.
The linking is failing on the C compilation.
gpl\precomp\spec\windows\EIFGENs\base\W_code/mingw/precomp.lib: No such
file or directory pretty much says it all.
It looks to me like a you're missing an environment variable like
ISE_EIFFEL because there's no path components before 'gpl'.
The missing env variable might be because the installation was done by
root and you're not running as root, or some other such common issue.

I'm not sure I've done this correctly.  I right-clicked on the library and selected "Remove Current Item" from the drop-down menu for the base_pre library.  However, the library still appears in the window and I get the same compiler failure.

Shoot.  I can't seem to get it to work on this computer and the "failure" message just doesn't suggest any course of action I can take to make this work.  Ugh.

After you remove the pre-compile like you did, close the project and when
you open it, click clean and try compiling again.

Ahhhh, I think you've hit it.  I did a SET in a command window and don't see ISE_EIFFEL anywhere.  I wonder why the installation didn't create that?  Eiffel was installed from an Admin account.  I'll look into that.

Thanks,

You're running on Windows. On Windows, EiffelStudio uses the registry  
instead of environment variables. Don't set the ISE_EIFFEL environment  
variable yourself, Bruce: on Windows, it tends to cause even more  
trouble, and it will create more confusion.

Roger misread the the error message. The path components _are_ there  
before 'gpl':

Your ISE_EIFFEL appears to be fine. Don't touch it.

Peter, thanks for the comment.? When I went back to Computer #1 I realized it did not have and env variable set either, so I didn't touch it.? So that leaves me back at square one....it works on computer #1, but not on computer #2 and I have no idea why.

Anyone else have any other suggestions to try?

Maybe I missed it, but you should post the compilation trace of the
precompilation
 From the C compilation trace you provided I can see at the end

gcc.exe: c:\program files\eiffel software\eiffelstudio 6.4 gpl\precomp\spec\windows\EIFGENs\base\W_code/mingw/precomp.lib: No such file or directory
> make.exe": *** [summarize_option_range.exe] Error 1

This means the precompilation of "base" went wrong.

You might go to
c:\program files\eiffel software\eiffelstudio 6.4 gpl\precomp\spec\windows\EIFGENs\base\W_code

and see what went wrong.

Do you have the same mingw version on both machine?
Did you installed EiffelStudio at the same place (i.e: c:\program files\eiffel software\eiffelstudio 6.4 gpl\) ?

hope this helps,
-- Jocelyn
