Re: set up hla on vista

here is what i have so far

Looks pretty good...

c:\hla>set path=C:\hla;%path%

c:\hla>set
....
hlainc=C:\hla\include
hlalib=C:\hla\hlalib\hlalib.lib

Good.

....
lib=;C:\hla\hlalib;C:\hla\hlalib;C:\hla\hlalib;C:\hla\hlalib;C:\hla
\hlalib;C:\hla\hlalib;C:\hla\hlalib;C:\hla\hlalib;C:\hla\hlalib
;C:\hla\hlalib;C:\hla\hlalib

This looks a little out of control. Looks like *something* (you? the installer? a batch file?) is doing "set lib=C:\hla\hlalib;%lib%" multiple times. Won't do any harm, but if goes on you'll fill your entire hard drive with this one line, eventually. Not a "priority", but sooner or later you'll want to "fix" whatever's doing this.

....

Okay, that worked.

....
c:\hla>cd projects

c:\hla\projects>set

Changing directories won't change your environment variables. "Shouldn't", at least...

....

No complaints. For troubleshooting purposes, you might want to use "hla -v hw.hla", which will spew out a lot of information about what HLA thinks it's trying to do. Generally "silence means success" (without the "-v" switch). This should have worked... but...

c:\hla\projects>hw
'hw' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

This suggests that it didn't. :(

c:\hla\projects>cd hw

c:\hla\projects\hw>dir
Volume in drive C has no label.
Volume Serial Number is 7563-3993

Directory of c:\hla\projects\hw

Now you've changed directories... Wouldn't expect to see "hw.exe" here. It should be in "C:\hla\projects". You don't show that (after "hla hw.hla"), but the error message suggests that it's not there, either. Dunno why not.

....
c:\hla\projects\hw>hla hw.hla

Again, no complaints...

c:\hla\projects\hw>hw
'hw' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

But again, it apparently didn't work.

c:\hla\projects\hw>set path=C:\hla\projects\hw;%path%

Shouldn't need to do this... unless you want to be able to execute "hw.exe" from other directories.

c:\hla\projects\hw>hla hw.hla

c:\hla\projects\hw>hw
'hw' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

Still no joy!!! :)

c:\hla\projects\hw>


any suggestions on how to make this work?

No. Not at the moment. Try, from either "C:\hla\projects" or "C:\hla\projects\hw" (some directory where "hw.hla" exists - not a bad idea to have each project in its own directory... or "C:\hla\projects" will get cluttered...) doing "hla -v hw.hla >err.log" and post "err.log". That should tell us *where* hla is quitting, and maybe why... It'll at least tell us what version of hla you're using - 1.99, I hope... 1.10x is "in progress" and earlier versions... well, 1.99 exists to fix the bugs in earlier versions...

Hope you get this working soon. I imagine you do, too! It gets easier, honest!

Best,
Frank
