I have uploaded a quick critical fix of issues of current dev releases (fixes problem with mingw compiles).

Works for me here on vista with mingw besides the following warning and errors:

C:\upp\uppsrc\RichText\ParseRTF.cpp: In member function `Upp::String Upp::RTFParser::ReadBinHex(char&) const':
C:\upp\uppsrc\RichText\ParseRTF.cpp:902: warning: converting of negative value `-0x000000001' to `unsigned int'

This seems to be a path-problem and is not new but still present:
gcc: Files\MySQL\MySQL\: No such file or directory
gcc: Server\: No such file or directory
gcc: 5.0\include: No such file or directory

And the building-time is 5-times longer compared to xp:
OK. (5:17.65)

With XP it build my project within 1:30

Have you tried with M$ compiler?

No, only testing with mingw. I have no MS-Compiler available.

No problem with that. But right know it would help us to know whether this is GCC or TheIDE problem Smile

BTW, there is AFAIK a new mingw, perhaps you could try that too.

I'm sure for the building-speed problem it's vista and gcc. Same UPP-Version with XP and gcc builds fast.

Yes, but it still could be theide problem, there can be a bug in the way how compiler is launched and its output captured...

Ok, i can try the MS-Compiler.

Downloaded and installed Visual C++ Express 2005 with SP1 and Platform SDK.

But there is a problem:

The IDE seems to access the PATH where the SDK-Image was placed while installing the SDK?

c:\upp\uppsrc\richtext\txtop.cpp(54) : fatal error C1001: Interner Compilerfehler.

No, this is quite known problem - you are compiling Release with BLITZ.

Please, use BLITZ in debug mode only... (ok, we should finally add some lock there unlocked in expert mode only... Smile

Can you please activate "Setup/Verbose" and then post here a commandline used to invoke gcc? (Will be printed in console.).

But in the build methods BLITZ isn't checked for release mode default.

Yes. Interesting, now there is "Programme", while the original obviously had "Program Files"?

What do you mean by original? The other posting http://www.ultimatepp.org/forum/index.php?t=msg&th=2630& amp; amp;start=0& was from my vista system at home. These output is from my xp system at work.

But both have the same error:

gcc: Files\MySQL\MySQL\: No such file or directory
gcc: Server\: No such file or directory
gcc: 5.0\include: No such file or directory


I will post the verbose output from vista when i'm at home again.

Hi,

I installed and tried to use 708-dev2b for an application that I've been working on and got the following error messages:

In file included from C:/upp/out/Core/MINGW.Debug_full.Gui.Mt\$blitz.cpp:7:
C:\upp\uppsrc\Core\Mt.cpp: In member function `bool Upp::Thread::Run(Upp::Callback)':
C:\upp\uppsrc\Core\Mt.cpp:85: error: `_beginthreadex' undeclared (first use this function)
C:\upp\uppsrc\Core\Mt.cpp:85: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in.)
OL_Set.cpp

This did not happen prior to the new release.

Thanks,

Dave

Ops.

Quickfix Core/Core.h:

			#include <stdarg.h>
			#include <windef.h>
			#include <winbase.h>
			#include <wingdi.h>
			#include <winuser.h>
		#define byte win32_byte_ // RpcNdr defines byte -> class with Upp::byte
		#define CY win32_CY_
			#include <objidl.h>
		#undef byte
		#undef CY
			typedef DWORD LCTYPE;
		#else
			#define _WINSOCKAPI_   /* Prevent inclusion of winsock.h in windows.h */
			#include <windows.h>
			#include <stdint.h>
		#endif
		#include <process.h>
	#endif

	#ifdef RGBA
		#undef RGBA
	#endif
#endif


(moved #include <process.h> further in the code, to be included for mingw too).

BTW, mingw has associated huge performance penalty with MT code as it does not support thread variables - means it is not possible to use per-thread allocator cache.

Hmmm, think I will leave dev2b alone for now and wait for dev2c.

However, FYI Mirek, I get excellent performance with MT on mingw. I'm using it in a very basic way. I have large grids on which I carry out calculations which took a long time and made testing slow so I now do four grid lines at a time and get almost 400% performance on my Q6600. I am very impressed with UPP MT under mingw.

My two pence.

Off course, it depends on what the code is doing.

In my multicore website generation, on dual core machine, mingw MT is SLOWER than single threaded... Because there is a lot of string / array manipulation and it gets hurt badly by poor performance of locking allocator.
