I have multiple project groups that I want to compile at batch. There are over 100 projects in there.
In 2010 we had a "make" file like this:
call "c:\Borland\RAD Studio\19.0\bin\rsvars.bat"
"c:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\12.0\Bin\MSBuild.exe" /t:Clean,Build Group1.groupproj
Under Tokyo it does not work anymore.
I get:
C:\Borland\RAD Studio\19.0\Bin\CodeGear.Cpp.Targets(3695,5): error : Error: Unable to open file 'L_ER_FD.RES' [P:\Ent\_common\er\prj\l_er_fd.cbproj]
However, the project group compiles just fine from IDE.
We think it is related to the creation of the .vres file (from .rc) which are create in memory by the IDE and never written to file.
Notes:
- I tried this from C++ Builder Tokyo but I guess it happens also under Delphi. I will test that soon.
- I have MSBuild v12.
I had the same problem and I managed to get around it. So I had the following script on older version of Rad Studio and it was working:
call rsvars.bat
call msbuild Utils25.cbproj /t:Clean;Build /p:Configuration=Release /p:platform=Win32 > result.err
but on Rad Studio 10.2.3 this was producing me a linking error like yours. After a lot of testing I found that if you do clean and build on separate msbuild calls it works as expected. So the following works:
call rsvars.bat
call msbuild Utils25.cbproj /t:Clean /p:Configuration=Release /p:platform=Win32 > clean.err
call msbuild Utils25.cbproj /t:Build /p:Configuration=Release /p:platform=Win32 > build.err

I can't use MSBuild to compile SSIS projects as it's not supported yet. Hence,
I'm trying to use VS2017 devenv.exe to compile SSIS projects in my TFS (2017) task via PowerShell. I don't see any errors but neither I see the compiled output from dtproj files i.e. dtsx or ispac.
However, if I run the same powershell command manually on the build agent machine then it works fine and produces the output files. This is the command I'm trying:
$VsIdeExe = 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Enterprise\Common7\IDE\devenv.exe'
$BuildConfiguration = 'Development'
$PackageStagingLogsDirectory = "C:\temp\logs"
& "$VsIdeExe" "C:\temp\Source\SSIS\MyData.sln" /build "$BuildConfiguration" `
/log "$PackageStagingLogsDirectory\MyData.ide.log" `
/out "$PackageStagingLogsDirectory\MyData.sln.log"
What am I missing here?
I found an alternative and it works. So, instead of using PowerShell task, I used Command line task and it works like a charm! I don't know how the mechanics are different between these 2 tasks but my use case sufficed.
Thanks!
I tried to build mysql-connector-c++ from source to static library.
Referring the official spec here, I generated the Visual studio solution by the following command:
cmake -DMYSQL_DIR="E:\mysql-5.7.21-winx64" -DWITH_BOOST="E:\libs\boost_1_67_0_BUILDED" -DWITH_JDBC=ON -G "Visual Studio 15 2017 Win64" ../
Then, I opened the vs solution generated by cmake.Run build, got the two libs: mysqlcppconn8-static-mt.lib, mysqlcppconn-static-mt.lib, and copied them to my project.
When I built my project (also vs2017 version), I got the error:
mysqlcppconn-static-mt.lib(net_serv.obj) : error LNK2038: 检测到“_MSC_VER”的不匹配项: 值“1800”不匹配值“1900”(ActionProcessor.obj 中)
I am confused. They're all built in vs2017, and platform toolset are all set to "Visual Studio 2017 (v141)". I can't understand where 1800_MSC_VER has come from.
Here is what I did
Specs
Visual Studio 15, (2017)
x64
Static (.lib)
With static runtime (/MT)
Tools
CMAKE
Bison (In a folder without spaces)
Perl (ActiveState or Strawberry)
OpenSSL 1.0.2q.tar.gz
Add CMAKE, Bison and pearl to your system path
Check to see if you got all setup correctly
C:\>cmake --version
cmake version 3.9.6
C:\>bison --version
bison (GNU Bison) 2.4.1
C:\>m4 --version
m4 (GNU M4) 1.4.13
C:\>perl -version
This is perl 5, version 24, subversion 3 (v5.24.3)
Step 1: Build OpenSSL 1.0.x
Note: if you want to build OpenSSL 1.1.x steps will be a bit different
Extract to: C:\mysql-8.0.15\openssl-1.0.2q
Run: x64 Native Tools Command prompt for VS 2017
cd C:\mysql-8.0.15\openssl-1.0.2q
Release
perl Configure VC-WIN64A no-shared --openssldir=.\rel64
ms\do_win64a
nmake -f ms\nt.mak
nmake -f ms\nt.mak install
Debug
nmake -f ms\nt.mak clean
perl Configure debug-VC-WIN64A no-shared --openssldir=.\dbg64
ms\do_win64a
nmake -f ms\nt.mak
nmake -f ms\nt.mak install
Step 2: Build MySQL (Yes the actual database)
Extract to: C:\mysql-8.0.15
Run: x64 Native Tools Command prompt for VS 2017
cd C:\mysql-8.0.15\
cmake . -G "Visual Studio 15 2017 Win64" ^
-DWITH_BOOST=C:/mysql-8.0.15/boost ^
-DDOWNLOAD_BOOST=1 ^
-DBUILD_CONFIG=mysql_release ^
-DWITH_SSL=C:\mysql-8.0.15\openssl-1.0.2q\rel64 ^
-DLINK_STATIC_RUNTIME_LIBRARIES=1
Copy m4.exe to C:\mysql-8.0.15\sql\ this avoids any m4.exe errors during built
Open MySQL.sln and build for release x64
Copy binary_log_funcs.h and binary_log_types.h from mysql-8.0.15\libbinlogevents\export to mysql-8.0.15\include
The library should be located at:
Static release library: C:\mysql-8.0.15\archive_output_directory\Release\mysqlclient.lib
Step 3: Build MySQL Connector C++
Copy C:\mysql-8.0.15-dbg\archive_output_directory\Debug\mysqlclient.lib
to C:\mysql-8.0.15-dbg\lib\vs14
Run CMAKE GUI
Browse to the path of the MySQL Connector Project.
Click Configure, Select Visual studio 15 2017 Win64, native compilers
Tick BUILD_STATIC
Tick STATIC_MSVCRT
TICK WITH_JDBC
remove WIN_SSL_YASL from CONFIG_VARS
WITH_SSL = C:\mysql-8.0.15\openssl-1.0.2q\rel64
WITH_BOOST= C:\mysql-8.0.15\boost\boost_1_66_0

C:\mysql-connector-c++-8.0.15\jdbc\install\lib\mysqlcppconn-static-mt.lib
C:\mysql-connector-c++-8.0.15\Release\mysqlcppconn8-static-mt.lib
Step 4: Test it
Note: This test is for the JDBC style API. If you are not maintaining an existing application, use the new xdevapi API.
Create a new project and put the following in main.cpp

I don't even know where to start explaining to be honest. Building this was a massive pain.
Before you begin to read this, please ensure you have the following:
C:\boost
C:\OpenSSL-Win32
C:\OpenSSL-Win64
Because I was writing my own "wrapper" and trying to make UNICODE work properly, I was getting weird exceptions, and I was unable to debug anything because I downloaded the latest package which is built without debug information (https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/cpp/)
This is the first time I try to build this, so I went to their Github repository and grabbed the latest "master": https://github.com/mysql/mysql-connector-cpp
BUT! This does not contain the "JDBC" sources, which is by the way the "native" connector as they call it. So I grabbed it from the branch: https://github.com/mysql/mysql-connector-cpp/tree/jdbc and then copied the files into "mysql-connector-cpp-master\jdbc".
OK. I opened "x64 Native Tools Command Prompt for VS 2017" and navigated to "mysql-connector-cpp-master". At this point I still had no idea what I am doing and how to build it, all I could understand from the docs and different articles here is to run:
cmake -DWITH_JDBC=ON --build .
This started to configure things and build OK, but it stopped here:
-- Searching for static libraries with the base name(s) "mysqlclient"
CMake Error at FindMySQL.cmake:524 (message):
Could not find "mysql.h" from searching "/usr/include/mysql
/usr/local/include/mysql /opt/mysql/mysql/include
/opt/mysql/mysql/include/mysql /usr/local/mysql/include
/usr/local/mysql/include/mysql C:\Program Files/MySQL/*/include
C:/MySQL/*/include"
Call Stack (most recent call first):
CMakeLists.txt:332 (INCLUDE)
OK. So what now... where is "mysql.h" ?! After searching... and searching, I found this: Missing mysql.h and trying to find mysql-devel
And I quote:
Grab the MySQL Community Server and install it on your system. It
contains a directory called include in which you find the mysql.h.
Ok, great we need more stuff. So I download: https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/ and run the command again.
Happy days, something happened but no libs yet. I did get however a VS 2017 solution called: "MYSQLCPPCONN.sln".
This contains VS 2017 configuration to build the library for Win32. And of course trying to build with this solution will give you A LOT of unresolved external symbols.
So I run again the cmake but with static option added:
cmake -DWITH_JDBC=ON -DBUILD_STATIC=ON --build .
This time when I open "MYSQLCPPCONN.sln" I can see another project "mysqlcppconn-static" and this builds fine without issues.
However, in my case I need x64. I just created a new configuration for x64 by copying the exiting configuration fron Win32.
So that's it, I have both Win32 and x64 "mysqlcppconn-static.lib".
Overall Conclusion at this time:
Quite hard to build, without experience you will spend some time...
time.
No proper documentation, their existing documentation is poorly
written and very confusing.
No UNICODE support, yes the projects compile as Multi-Byte
Character Set.
I will see if I can debug and find out why am I getting exceptions in the library when using this (from their documentation):
sql::ConnectOptionsMap connection_properties;
connection_properties["hostName"] = "";
connection_properties["port"] = "";
connection_properties["userName"] = "";
connection_properties["password"] = "";
connection_properties["schema"] = "";
connection_properties["OPT_CONNECT_TIMEOUT"] = 10;
connection_properties["CLIENT_MULTI_STATEMENTS"] = (true);
connection_properties["OPT_CHARSET_NAME"] = "utf8";
connection_properties["OPT_SET_CHARSET_NAME"] = "utf8";
I hope you can build your library with this information, and hopefully in the future it will become more easier and clear.
Good Luck.
I'm following this guide on building V8 but I am hitting some issues on the compilation step. I am running Windows 10 x64. I am trying to compile with options to embed the engine also.
Running the following command:
ninja -C out.gn/x64.release
Gives me this error:
ninja: Entering directory `out.gn/x64.release'
[1/471] LINK mksnapshot.exe mksnapshot.exe.pdb
FAILED: mksnapshot.exe mksnapshot.exe.pdb
C:/Workspace/depot_tools/win_tools-2_7_6_bin/python/bin/python.exe ../../build/toolchain/win/tool_wrapper.py link-wrapper environment.x64 False link.exe /nologo /OUT:./mksnapshot.exe /PDB:./mksnapshot.exe.pdb #./mksnapshot.exe.rsp
LINK : fatal error LNK1181: cannot open input file 'comdlg32.lib'
ninja: build stopped: subcommand failed.
Now I believe I have narrowed down the error to looking for the .lib files in the wrong directory. I have (had) multiple versions installed, so there were multiple folders in my Windows Kit install.
Windows Kits/10/Lib/10.0.16299.0
Windows Kits/10/Lib/10.0.15xxx.0
If I dragged and dropped the comdlg32.lib file from 10.0.16299.0 into the 10.0.15xxx.0 directory then the error changed to a LNK1181 error with a different input file. I did this a few times but I was unsure if this was going to cause issues with different versions and there was probably going to be a lot.
I uninstalled the 10.0.15xxx.0 version which left behind the folder I mentioned, so I removed that and after doing so I have started getting the LNK1181 error with a different input file (advapi32.lib I assume the very first file it can't find). This is how I came to the conclusion about the path being incorrect.
So I have tried a few things to change the path (I hoped just uninstalling the old version would fix it) such as:
Uninstalling the old version.
Going through registry entries to see if I can find an install path or something using that path, which I didn't. I did notice that there was still installation and data in the registry for the 10.0.15xxx.0 install, I might try deleting that from the registry directly as a last resort?
I have tried to explicitly set the path by setting <TargetUniversalCRTVersion>10.0.16299.0</TargetUniversalCRTVersion> in this file: C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\DesignTime\CommonConfiguration\Neutral\uCRT.props
I have never used Ninja before so I tried looking for a way to set some kind of lib-path in the command but couldn't really find anything.
I looked through the python scripts being executed to try and locate something to do with the libs path but couldn't see anything.
I would be grateful for any help and suggestions. Thanks.
You can try to compile v8 using Visual Studio as explained here: https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/master/docs/windows_build_instructions.md#using-the-visual-studio-ide
By running the following commands:
$ gn gen --ide=vs out.gn/x64.release
$ cd out.gn/x64.release
$ msbuild all.sln
You can see a full example here: https://github.com/phpv8/v8js/issues/272#issuecomment-262848754
Apparently this method is not officially supported anymore, but I had the same problem as you have and this solved the issue for me.
Note that after this I had another issue, the unit tests failed to be compiled due to a linking error, but I had the necessary libraries to use v8. So there may be deeper problem that is causing all of this that I'm missing.
Edit:
Also, you could try to set the following parameters with gn args:
visual_studio_path = "..."
visual_studio_version = "2017"
wdk_path = "..."
windows_sdk_path = "C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10"
To set those parameters, do:
gn args out.gn/x64.release
This will open a text editor where you can write the extra parameters you are interested in.
To see the full list of parameters you can specify:
gn args --list out.gn/x64.release
I was following this guide https://medium.com/dailyjs/how-to-build-v8-on-windows-and-not-go-mad-6347c69aacd4 and also ran into the error
LINK1181: cannot open input file 'advapi32.lib'
I'm pretty sure it was because I had the wrong versions of the Windows 10 SDK. Similar to you I had versions:
Windows Kits/10/Lib/10.0.10240.0
Windows Kits/10/Lib/10.0.16299.0
But according to https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/master/docs/windows_build_instructions.md#Setting-up-Windows (Which I think is relevant) you need version 10.0.15063.0
After installing version 10.0.15063.0 (with the visual studio installer) to
Windows Kits/10/Lib/10.0.15063.0
I was able to continue with the build.
We are using Visual Studio 2012 to build our C++ application
If I run from the commandline in my source folder:
C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\MSBuild.exe /p:Configuration=Release /p:Platform=Win32 Myproject2012.sln
it works fine. If it's run via the Buildscript of my buildserver (Atlassian bamboo) I get a lot of errors. The first two lines..
C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft.Cpp\v4.0\V110\Microsoft.CppCommon.targets(347,5): error MSB4018: The "CL" task failed unexpectedly. [C:\data\bamboo-home\xml-data\build-dir\XXX-IMB-JOB1\XXX\common\common.vcxproj]
C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft.Cpp\v4.0\V110\Microsoft.CppCommon.targets(347,5): error MSB4018: System.TypeInitializationException: The type initializer for 'Microsoft.Build.Utilities.FileTracker' threw an exception. ---> System.IO.DirectoryNotFoundException: Das System kann den angegebenen Pfad nicht finden. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070003) [C:\data\bamboo-home\xml-data\build-dir\XXX-IMB-JOB1\XXX\common\common.vcxproj]
What can be the reason for this behaviour?
You can run the build outside of Bamboo as system if you use Sysinternals psexec.
psexec -i -s cmd.exe
Then try C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\MSBuild.exe /p:Configuration=Release /p:Platform=Win32 Myproject2012.sln
Then create a shell that have elevated permissions and retry.
Should help see if its a permissions thing or a path thing. Ive tried building C++ as system and it seems PK.
Or it could be this:
MSBUILD MSB4018 error
I found the problem
The System Account has a default temp directory which msbuild doesn't like
I changed it to "c:\temp" no it works!
If someone else has the problem, you can change it in the registry
HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Environment
Its kinda an odd story. I'm trying to build the openssl library. Well, it is not the first time I'm doing it and until now it was fine. however, I've desided to add a build configuration to TeamCity (actually the problem has nothing to do with TeamCity)to build all my third parties libraries on-demand. So, I created a step with common set of openssl build commands:
perl Configure VC-WIN64A
ms\do_win64a.bat
nmake /d /f ms\ntdll.mak
... and the build failed while assembling the very first asm file. So I ran same commands in VS2012 x64 command prompt and the build succedeed, as expected. It took a while untill I figured out that the problem is in output redirection. Teamcity redirects output from build step to the teamcity build log, so did I by adding ">1.txt" to "nmake /d /f ms\ntdll.mak" command, and the build failed. I would say it is somewhat unexpected reason for build to fail.
So far, I've tried:
Building the same from VS2010 command prompt with redirection,
failed.
Building the same from VS2010 command prompt without
redirection, succeded.
Building the same from VS2010/VS2012 command
prompt with redirection to file and forcing redirection to CON (nmake
/d /f ms\ntdll.mak >CON >1.txt) failed.
Googling for "nmake problems
when console output is redirected" - nothing
Googling for "openssl
build problems when console output is redirected" - nothing
My setup
- Win2008R2, virtual machine.
- VS2010, latest updates
- VS2012, Update 1
Actual error:
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: '"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\VC\BIN\amd64\ml64.EXE"' : return code '0x1'
ml64.exe complains about the asm file stating it should end with "END" statement. It does, but...
Any ideas?
Ok, since the problem is in perl and writing files to stdout and then redirecting it you have to change following files to build x64 version:
crypto\aes\asm\aes-x86_64.pl
crypto\bn\asm\modexp512-x86_64.pl
crypto\bn\asm\x86_64-gf2m.pl
crypto\bn\asm\x86_64-mont.pl
crypto\bn\asm\x86_64-mont5.pl
crypto\md5\asm\md5-x86_64.pl
crypto\modes\asm\ghash-x86_64.pl
crypto\rc4\asm\rc4-md5-x86_64.pl
crypto\rc4\asm\rc4-x86_64.pl
crypto\sha\asm\sha1-x86_64.pl
crypto\sha\asm\sha512-x86_64.pl
crypto\whrlpool\asm\wp-x86_64.pl
crypto\x86_64cpuid.pl
engines\asm\e_padlock-x86_64.pl
you have to open these files and change all "open STDOUT "whateverfile"" to something like "open my $asmfile "whaeverfile"", then take care of string concatenation (only in x86_64cpuid.pl) and then print it to the file instead of STDOUT, something like "print $code" to "print $asm $code"
and of course, dont forget to close the file, in another words change the "close STDOUT" to "close $asmfile"
Obviously when building target other than x64 one will have to change another set of files.
Will try to communicate it to openssl maintainer.
