RE: Steve's even better... reply
Yes all QB files in separate folder but that's not all I need to do. Here is my checklist, to which I add some other item every new version it seems: Code: (Select All) Downloaded Plus a good time to run a backup of QB File and clear the Pictures folder and review and refile Downloads of bas stuff (do that first actually).

How about the following:
Download QB64pe-4.0.0.zip Extract to C:\ preserving pathnames. Drop to Cmd then C>Cd\ C>Ren QB64pe QB64pe.old C>Ren QB64pe-4.0.0 QB64pe C>Cd\QB64pe C>@echo Run install command C>setup_win.cmd C>Exit

If so, there is no need to build from source unless you are making changes to the compiler. The Windows version of QB64PE is ready to use out of the box. Just unpack and go. BEFORE UNPACKING THE WINDOWS .7z ARCHIVE: delete your old "qb64pe" folder or rename it Name it to "qb64pe_OLD", or "Q", or "Fred", or whatever. The new name does not matter as long as you free up the name "qb64pe" for reuse. If you run an antivirus then you may have to go through the rigmarole of whitelisting the new PE with your A/V. If the new installation has the same directory name as your old installation, then any old file associations, Open With options, etc should work just fine on the new version, with no changes needed. The entire Windows compiler suite is contained in a folder called "qb64pe", so just extract the archive wherever you want and you are good to go. ((If you insist on building from source, just do it in the "QB64pe-4.0.0" folder. If successful you can then move the shiny new PE files into a good (and EMPTY!!!) home of their very own.))

I have downloaded the file: qb64pe_win-x86-4.0.0.7z and had compilation issues and was told to build the source from: QB64pe-4.0.0.zip which extracts into \QB64pe-4.0.0 but I want it in \QB64pe
You beat my last edit:
Do the build in the "QB64pe-4.0.0" folder. If successful you can then move the shiny new PE files into a good (and EMPTY!!!) home of their very own. Reading your compilelog.txt, it looks like some essential files got clobbered, like you may have installed 4.0.0 onto an older version of PE. QB64PE on Windows is -->2<-- compilers with many thousands of files built to work with other files of the same version. Even if the names don't change, the contents of many of those files change from one PE version to the next, so lose that idea about merging directories. That's, NEVER a good idea when updating software suite like PE. Most software updates remove or isolate the old before cleanly installing the new, and that's the way we should do it. Unless the author explicitly says a new-over-old update is safe, assume it's not. I recommend trying a COMPLETELY FRESH extraction of the .7z archive. |
