Posted: 02 August 2011, 18:30 PM Post subject: ZBasic Compiler (No support for other OS) |
|
|
I Bought a zx microcontroller few months before. Until today there is no support for 64bit windows . Also there is no support for Linux or Mac. Will be ever compiler ported for other OS ? Is it going to be compatible with 64bit windows ?
ZX Microcontrollers are really good as hardware but as far as new PCs have 64bit OS this is a big problem for the product. The only way I can program my microcontroller is by a virtual machine which is not the best way.
Are anybody working for a solution for this problem ?
EDIT: 64bit Solved

Both the compiler and IDE are 32-bit applications and they should run fine on a WoW box on 64-bit Windows. Which 64-bit OS are you running and what types of problems are you seeing?

We do know that some customers are running the IDE and compiler under Wine on both platforms. In the future, a Mac version might be introduced but a Linux version is much more problematic due to the plethora of Linux distributions available and the incompatibilities among them. |

I can confirm that in my case the Zbasic compiler could be installed under 64-bit Windows Enterprise without any problems or notifications

That's the error i get from ZBasic IDE and also I got this message while tried to compile in CMD.I can't remember right now but somewhere in the forum before a couple of months I found out that i couldn't make it work in my OS so i tried zbasic in wine and it worked.Unfortunately now i don't have ubuntu in my hd anymore.
My OS: Windows 7 Home Edition 64bit |

I can't believe it, i just changed the installation path from "c:/Program Files (x86)" to "c:/ZBasic" and now it works... what dkinzer said helped me.
All this trouble for nothing  |
