I'm planning a 2.6.11 release in about a week, so if anyone has any comments, now is the time :-). Specifically, I'd like to know if anyone wants/uses a windows installer, or simply builds from source. Skipping this step simplifies things a lot. Take care,Which git branch is this? I will try building on windows then use gcl to build maxima. PS. I build from source on windows to build the maxima windows release.I have just built git head on windows XP with latest mingw gcc 4.8.1.Just noticed this. Please test with Version_2_6_11pre, master is not ready for prime time. Take care,gcl builds OK, but I am getting testsuite failures with maxima (current git head). I don't get these failures with gcl-2.6.10. Too late to investigate further tonight. David I have problems with maxima-5.33.0 and Version_2_6_11pre on msys/windows. Simple test case below. There are issues with maxima-5.34.0 - released a few days ago - and Lisp implementations which compute floating point infinity by default (GCL, ECL). See http://sourceforge.net/p/maxima/mailman/message/32778820/ for irrelevant details. To avoid these I have focused on maxima-5.33.0, which works nicely with gcl-2.6.10. I am comparing two freshly built gcls, using current mingw/msys 32-bit system under Windows XP SP3.
Both gcls are built using "./configure --enable-ansi
--enable-dynsysgmp" Then build maxima-5.33.0 from tarball, using the two uninstalled
gcl Using gcl-2.6.10, all tests pass. Using Version_2_6_11pre I get
a testsuite failure and then a "hang" in rtest11.mac. I have started digging. The first reduced testcase is the maxima
command "is(%pi>1);" Using maxima/gcl-2.6.10 the answer is "true" I need to put this aside for now, but may get back to it later
today.
