[eclipse-users] Manual install: ecl_inst.tcl fails

Hi folks,

 

I started working through the manual install, but ecl_inst.tcl fails
with the

following errors. I am going down this path due to problems with the
.exe

installer reported in a separate thread. I am on Win2K SP4.

 

couldn't load library "shortcut.dll": this library or a dependent
library could not be found in library path

couldn't load library "shortcut.dll": this library or a dependent
library could not be found in library path

    while executing

"load shortcut.dll"

    (file "C:/Program Files/ECLiPSe 5.10/ecl_inst.tcl" line 120)

    invoked from within

"source {C:/Program Files/ECLiPSe 5.10/ecl_inst.tcl}"

    ("uplevel" body line 1)

    invoked from within

"uplevel #0 {source {C:/Program Files/ECLiPSe 5.10/ecl_inst.tcl}}"

    invoked from within

"interp eval $::tkcon::OPT(exec) $args"

    (procedure "::tkcon::EvalSlave" line 2)

    invoked from within

"EvalAttached [list source $fn]"

    (procedure "::tkcon::Load" line 19)

    invoked from within

"::tkcon::Load"

    (menu invoke)

 

I send this more as an "FYI" - I may look at the option to build ECLiPSe
from the

source, but as we are currently just "evaluating" the technique, I'll
probably just

stick with the command-line ECLiPSe for now :-)

 

Thanks,
