Compiling the scriptbasic source package

[markhobley]

Does anyone know how to get the scriptbasic source package to compile
correctly?

I am trying to compile on my Debian based system, and am getting a series of
errors during build:

Mark,

Sounds like you have some permission issues or don't have your development library loaded is my guess. What version of Linux you running? I had to tweak the interface.c files so that the compiler/linker could find the correct paths to the libs.

 I will try put the 2.1 source on the server in the next few days. I have binaries for CentOS (Red Hat Recompile) if that would help get you going with ScriptBasic. I have been running ScriptBasic 2.1 for over a year as a web service interface to a MLS to get photos and listing data. I have tons of other small scripts in ScriptBasic I run as well. I now have the ScriptBasic 2.1 application server working with Apache 2.x and MySQL and it's faster then any other scripting environment I have used in the past. (php, Perl, CF, ASP, ...)

Welcome to the ScriptBasic open source project. I could use some help from a few good C programmers to update extension modules with current release levels of the libs.
