[Swift-devel] Re: Swift on Eureka

[Michael Wilde]

No, we'll either need to build it for you or you can try to build it yourself.

Sarah or David, can you do a build and sanity test of Swift on Fusion today?
(If not, I will do this later today...)

We should get this installed as a softenv package on Fusion, PADS, and MCS machines.

Thanks,

Mike
