The current versions are: vbcc 0.9f patch 1, vasm 1.8a, vlink 0.16a, GNU Make 4.2

AVG report this link/installer to be infected by Win32:Malware.Gen.

It's a false positive. Anything that says "gen" or "generic" is not a virus, just a generic warning.

The 7-zip SFX module extracts all installation files and then executes another program, the actual installer, which is why it will always trigger a warning, and the installer itself will among other things modify the Win32 registry, which is probably why it also triggers warnings.

I check everything with F-secure, Windows Defender, and virustotal.com before uploading, but you should always double-check of course.

Leffmann, how can I download the installer when AVG blocks it from being downloaded at first place?, and please don't tell me to get another virus-scanner because I have paid for this version of AVG I use

try this: AVG is Blocking Me From Downloading Files From the Internet

Code:

File Exclusions and Temporary Disabling



If you're positive the file you're trying to down is not infected and AVG keeps

blocking it, you can add the file type to the File Exclusions list or temporarily

disable AVG to bypass the download block.

To add a file exclusion, open AVG settings, click "Expert Settings" under

"Computer Protection" and "Antivirus," remove the file extension from the

list and click "Apply."

AVG can be disabled by right-clicking on the AVG icon from the taskbar

and selecting "Temporarily disable AVG protection."

do not add the file type for exlusion, only add the file itself (exact filename) to the exlusion list.

Any update on this build since both Vasm has been updated recently.
On another note the current version is making Windows Defender reporting a virus.
Can it be fixed?

Leffmann

I've updated the binary archive with the latest versions, you can just place them in the vbcc/bin directory to update. The installer archive is still not updated.

I always check everything with F-secure, Windows Defender, and virustotal.com before uploading, but there's nothing I can do about warnings of the types "gen" and "generic" unfortunately.

For info Windows Defender says "Trojan:Win32/Bitrep.B"

Thanks, I've done a thorough offline scan of the whole drive, and Windows Defender can't find that virus in the archive, or anywhere on my computer.

The installer is now updated to use the latest versions of the tools and the 1.3 NDK for the AmigaOS 1.3 target.

Very useful.

I've updated the installer and binary-only packages with the latest versions.

The packages now also include vasmm68k_madmac, the AmigaOS 2.0+ POSIX target, and GNU Make 3.81 for compatibility with older makefiles.

(and yes AV software will still give generic warnings, and no there are still no viruses)

phx	29 December 2018 21:39

That was quick. Thanks!

I was asked for MacOS-versions today. By any chance, did you compile something for OSX as well? :D

Leffmann

29 December 2018 22:37

I have no installer for macOS, but I've added a zip with binaries in the top post.

I am looking for newest vbcc package for windows x64. Can someone share newest windows release build. TIA

phx	16 June 2020 22:50

Leffmann has recent MSVC++ vbcc 0.9g project files here: https://github.com/Leffmann/vbcc-windows
But there are no compiled binaries for download. I can't help you with it, but somebody certainly can. ;)

EDIT: Volker even has a link to recent vbcc sources from end of April here: http://www.ibaug.de/vbcc/vbcc.tar.gz
Although this is no official release it includes some improvements and bug fixes. Including increased m68k performance and a first 6502 (much better than cc65) backend. Currently he is working on 6809 support - I finished the assembler backend a few weeks ago.
This is a short list of changes since V0.9g:

Code:

- bad assert.h in 0.9g: it must be possible to include the assert-macro

  multiple times (with and without NDEBUG defined)

- added -warnings-as-errors option

- fixed an optimization regression that prevented combination of ADDRESS

  and DREFOBJ ICs in most cases

- New optimization and tuning options for constant initializations.

- 6502 backend

- vc frontend does Unix-path conversion also for -o.

@phx - Thanks a lot. I saw Leffmann github but I have VS2019 and I had problems with that. But finally I built it (recent sources) with help of https://sites.google.com/site/davidp...ode-repository.

All times are GMT +2. The time now is 22:24.
