How to compile CEDET 1.0pre7 compilation for Emacs 23.1.50 on Windows?

Question

I'm trying to compile CEDET from CVS for Emacs 23.1.50 on Windows and I've got error on "Step 6: Turning on EDE...": "defvar: Symbol's value as variable is void: cedet-menu-map". Compilation of CEDET 1.0pre6 raises the same error.

Answer 1

CEDET has been integrated into Emacs after 23 was released. As such, you don't need to compile CEDET for your Emacs, you just need to turn it on. In such a version of Emacs, the only difference from the install instructions from CEDET is that you don't need to load cedet.el, and you do need to turn on (semantic-mode 1) to do what cedet.el used to do.
