What about putting it into "News" on home page? Smile

BTW, updating 3rd party tools to new versions in late beta looks a bit late to me.
I will try to test all my projects with new beta in next 7-10 days, and I hope most of U++ users will to this too, so the final 2008.1 can be considered at least as stable as 2007 was. Smile

Here debian packages for the 2008.2beta :

32 bit : http://www.ultimatepp.org/svnbuilds/upp-beta_2008.2beta_i386 .deb

64 bit : http://www.ultimatepp.org/svnbuilds/upp-beta_2008.2beta_amd6 4.deb

It will be installed separated from stable and svn packages, in
/usr/share/upp-beta/

with user copy of packages proposed as
~/upp-beta

and ide executable name as theide-beta

So, you can test/use without clobbering your working stable setups.

Ciao

Max

Of course it was to be 2008.1beta2 not 2008.2beta. Sorry for misleading anyone. I've just got lost in the jungle of numbers;)

Hi,

I am having problem with mingw.
At the end of the compilation signals a ld.exe error and appear the usual windows message asking to inform microsoft. No executables is produced.
I tried my app and helloworld example with the same result.
Is it the effect of the new compiler?

Luigi

all static and no blitz used

hello.cpp
HelloWorld: 1 file(s) built in (0:03.23), 3235 msecs / file, duration = 3235 msecs
Linking...

Target machine: I386
(option '-O 2' ignored)

There were errors. (0:06.03)

Strange, I compiled all examples and tutorial with new mingw and everything was ok. However ld and ar are upp replacements. Maybe in your case they fail. Could you post here your package so I could test it?

I've uninstalled and installed again but I am not able to compile the package coming with the distro.
Is it ok for other users using mingw?

I went on the mingw site and downloaded their installer. Then I choose a candidate version to install in c:\upp\mingw.
I compiled and everything was ok but my app from 3.4 mb is now 3.8. The previous upp I used was a 2007.12. I do not know if my app became bigger because of the new 2008 version or due to the new compiler (5.1.3)

IMO, you have just witnessed that "uld" is more than just faster Smile
