993 :: 0.10.3 binary?

• Daimon (orginal) [2015-03-07T20:36:23+01:00] view original

  I'd like to grab the newest version of Nim, but the latest available binary is 0.10.2, is .3 binary available somewhere?

  There are instructions here: https://github.com/araq/nim#compiling

  For someone who hasn't built from c source before, those instructions are woefully inadequate.

  Is there anything specific you're having trouble with: errors, etc?

  @Daimon not really, just copy-paste them in the console one at a time.

  If you use windows, install codeblocks and set gcc folder to your path (easier than installing gcc yourself) and follow instructions like usual.

  You don't need the ./ syntax on windows:

  $ git clone git://github.com/Araq/Nim.git
  $ cd Nim
  $ git clone --depth 1 git://github.com/nim-lang/csources
  $ cd csources && build.bat
  $ cd ..
  $ bin/nim.exe c koch
  $ koch boot -d:release
  Run

  Edit: Correction, windows treats executable's differently, updated my post to be more clear and cause less confusion.
