Sorry for my (very) late reply.
I just saw/read about the issues with the builds and had a look to check the current state. Good thing is that the Jenkins build server itself seems to be running fine and seems to have built new binaries and CHM documentation files continuously without outages (this are the build dates for documentation CHM for example:
https://imgur.com/josSrsH). I can reproduce the 404 when trying to access
http://users.freebasic-portal.de/stw/builds/ via HTTP, but it seems to work fine when accessing the site via HTTP
S so please use the secure version
https://users.freebasic-portal.de/stw/builds/ instead. I don't operate the server for hosting the files, it is kindly provided by Sebastian (thanks!). FTPS upload from Jenkins build server worked reliably as well (just one random 426 server error once).
I do not create backups of the contents in
http://users.freebasic-portal.de/stw/builds/ directly, so in case of emergency (like the recent
datacenter fire at OVH) some data would most likely be lost. But I do create backups of important things like the Jenkins build server configuration.
@Cretin Ho: the builds only include a minimal set of headers and binaries to reduce size. fbc for win32 used to default to -gen gas and therefore gcc wasn't needed, I guess it makes sense to add this or at least provide it as add-on package, like there is one for headers (
https://users.freebasic-portal.de/stw/b ... eaders.zip). Copying the latest build into a regular FreeBasic release as suggested by D.J.Peters will most likely work, but may cause issues if toolchains are different or incompatible.
Only the ARM builds are cross-compiled, all the other targets are built natively on the respective platform (see end of this post for OS versions:
https://freebasic.net/forum/viewtopic.p ... 16#p276616). Linux file permissions are unfortunately lost, because the ZIP archive is packaged on Jenkins running on Windows (as I unfortunately don't have a "real" server available, which would most definitely run Linux then, but just a regular desktop PC running this beside other things).
