component compile problem

When you get halcompile working, I'd be more then happy to help you with your component. I've done several lathe turrets and a couple tool changers. Single direction lathe turrets are easy There is an older book called " C Through design " , it is a very good easy to follow text. Check it out.

Thanks Andy

Unfortunatly
github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/blob/master...onents/carousel.comp

=> This webpage is not available

Even if i could have downloaded it, not sure where to insert it
but we want give up

Tx Andy Link is working now. Halcompile is still not.

must the .comp file be compiled from a specific folder ?

Thanks Andy for your great "carousel" script.

Only managed to compile some files so far.

HAL component generator examples working =
atanxy.comp - ddt - arraydemo - rand
also
oracchanger.comp from ArcEye
triacchanger.comp from ArcEye

HAL component generator examples NOT working with the usuall errors
out8.comp constant.comp
many others of various sources.

I took working files as an examples - copied and pasted all sort of lines to the ones not working.
rewrote portions etc.. on 3 different machines of mine

still have no clue what's going on

Found the problem.

Visited a fellow South African CNC club member , Henk Du Preez.
He compiled carousel.comp from my USB stick - > did not compile
Downloaded file from the net, straight on his machine -> everything went OKI DOKI

Long story short -> I previously installed Google within Iceweasel search engine, because Google is familiar to me.

When I used the Iceweasel search bar instead and downloaded carousel.comp -> compiled ==>
