GradeL 0.9.1 Released.

GradeL 0.9.1 has been released. This release includes bug fixes and minor improvements. I have included a .deb package as well. Please try it out and report problems. You can download the release or get more info in the website.

Take care.

Compiling and Installation Problems

Apparently, when I completed the conversion to Gambas2 from Gambas1 I neglected to pay close attention to the compile and installation scripts I provided with the source package. They contain bugs. The next release of GradeL will include the correct scripts, but in the meantime, I have included them here:

compile.sh:


#!/bin/sh

# This shell script compiles and archives GradeL using Gambas2.
# The result is the binary archive gradel, which can be run
# by typing ./gradel from the source directory or installed
# using sudo sh ./install.sh.

echo ""
echo "GradeL Compile Script"
echo "----------------------------------------"
echo "Checking for compiled components..."

if [ -d .gambas ]
then
echo "Removing old files..."
cd .gambas
rm *
cd ..
rmdir .gambas
fi

if [ -f gradel ]
then
rm gradel
fi

echo ""
echo "Compiling GradeL with gbc2 -p -a ..."

# It is important to include the -p and -a flags
gbc2 -p -a

echo "Creating executable archive \"gradel\" with gba2 ..."
gba2

# Rename executable archive
mv gradel-0.9.1.gambas gradel

echo "Done!"
