I'm trying to compile the examples under cpp starting with minimal_build. I don't have much cmake experience. Must this be run under docker, or can it just be compiled in a Linux shell? I'm running Centos7 on a AWS EC2 instance, and I've installed cmake 3.20.2. Executing sudo ./run.sh, errors immediately with "cd: /io: No such file or directory". When I try and make what I think are the necessary changes to the scripts, I keep hitting errors. So I just want to see is this is even possible before proceeding further.
Thanks.
Yes, it is possible. I recently built Arrow on CentOS 7. With any C++ project there are going to be challenges switching amongst Linux distributions. The docker image is a way to provide a single example that the Arrow project can verify. You will need to adapt your Linux environment based on the issues you encounter. #Tsyvarev is also correct, you will want to use run_static.sh instead of run.sh. In order to do this you will need to dive a bit further into the details.
The build script has two steps. First, it will build the Arrow project itself. This is probably going to be the more challenging step. This guide is helpful for this step and provides a lot more detail into how Arrow builds and what options there are. The second step will be to compile and build the example.
Specifically for CentOS 7 one of the challenges you will face is that you will need a newer version of CMake. I ended up building CMake from source. If you go this route you also need to make sure that CMake is built with curl/https support. I used the --system-curl option for this.
That is all I remember having to do special for CentOS 7 at the moment. As you go about this task if you run into further, more specific, issues, feel free to ask them here or on the Arrow dev/user mailing list.
I am using Codelite for the first time. I can successfully build code, but Codelite remains unresponsive to the Run command (or to ctrl+F5). Below is the screenshot of the build log.

What could possibly be the cause of this issue? i can´t find any documentation on the subject.
Codelite version : 11.0.8

During a long compilation with Visual Studio 2005 (version 8.0.50727.762), I sometimes get the following error in several files in some project:
fatal error C1033: cannot open program database 'v:\temp\apprtctest\win32\release\vc80.pdb'
(The file mentioned is either vc80.pdb or vc80.idb in the project's temp dir.)
The next build of the same project succeeds. There is no other Visual Studio open that might access the same files.
This is a serious problem because it makes nightly compilation impossible.
It is possible that an antivirus or a similar program is touching the pdb file on write - an antivirus is the most likely suspect in this scenario. I'm afraid that I can only give you some general pointers, based on my past experience in setting nightly builds in our shop. Some of these may sound trivial, but I'm including them for the sake of completion.
First and foremost: make sure you start up with a clean slate. That is, force-delete the output directory of the build before you start your nightly.
If you have an antivirus, antispyware or other such programs on your nightly machine, consider removing them. If that's not an option, add your obj folder to the exclusion list of the program.
(optional) Consider using tools such as VCBuild or MSBuild as part of your nightly. I think it's better to use MSBuild if you're on a multicore machine. We use IncrediBuild for nightlies and MSBuild for releases, and never encountered the problem you describe.
If nothing else works, you can schedule a watchdog script a few hours after the build starts and check its status; if the build fails, the watchdog should restart it. This is an ugly hack, but it's better than nothing.
We've seen this a lot at my site too. This explanation, from Peter Kaufmann, seems to be the most plausible based on our setup:
When building a solution in Visual Studio 2005, you get errors like fatal error C1033: cannot open program database 'xxx\debug\vc80.pdb'. However, when running the build for a second time, it usually succeeds.
Reason: It's possible that two projects in the solution are writing their outputs to the same directory (e.g. 'xxx\debug'). If the maximum number of parallel project builds setting in Tools - Options, Projects and Solutions - Bild and Run is set to a value greater than 1, this means that two compiler threads could be trying to access the same files simultaneously, resulting in a file sharing conflict.
Solution: Check your project's settings and make sure no two projects are using the same directory for output, target or any kind of intermediate files. Or set the maximum number of parallel project builds setting to 1 for a quick workaround. I experienced this very problem while using the VS project files that came with the CLAPACK library.
UPDATE: There is a chance that Tortoise SVN accesses 'vc80.pdb', even if the file is not under versioning control, which could also result in the error described above (thanks to Liana for reporting this). However, I cannot confirm this, as I couldn't reproduce the problem after making sure different output directories are used for all projects.
Switch the debug info to C7 format instead of using the PDB.
Project Options -> C/C++ -> General -> Debug Information Format and set it to C7.
This generally happens when your previous attempts at debugging have not killed the debugger fully.
In Task manager look for a process called vcjit, kill it and try again.
Worst option restart visual studio, this should solve your problem.
I had this problem today and it turned out to be non-ansi characters in the path to the pdb that caused it.
I'm using windows through vmware, and my project was in a shared location: \vmware-host\Shared Folders\project
When I moved it to \Users\julian\project it resolved the issue.
I just ran into this problem. Visual studio was complaining about not being able to open vc100.pdb. I looked for open file handles to this file using procexp and found out that the process mspdbsrv had an open file handle to it. Killing this process fixed the issue and I was able to compile.
Try right click the excutable file of VS....and Properties->Compatibility-> Tick "Run this program in compatibilty mode for:" OFF........
I had a similar problem while working on a project which I had located in my Dropbox folder. I found that it would throw this error when the little "syncing" icon was going on the Dropbox icon in the system tray, since Dropbox was accessing the files to upload them to their server. When I waited to build until Dropbox finished syncing, it worked every time.
I have same problem C1033: cannot open program database,
Scenario
I have two dll's parent.dll and child.dll.I just attached child.dll project with visual studio debugger at the same time i am trying to build the parent.dll project,produces error C1033: cannot open program database
Solution
Stop debugging and kill the process attached with the debugger.Rebuild the project
This happens to me consistently if I Ctrl+Break to cancel a build (vs2015). There's some process that isn't shut down properly. I went on a rampage "End Tasking" ms/vs related processes (look for duplicates) and my build worked again. A restart would probably work too. As would moving to gnu binutils.
Annoyingly unlocker tools don't report any processes locking the file, windows doesn't let me delete the .pdb but I can rename it. My guess is two processes jump in at the same time during a build.
Are you using LinqToSql at all? Perhaps it is similar to the odd error I will experience occasionally as I asked in this question: What causes Visual Studio to fail to load an assembly incorrectly?
I changed my intermediate directory from:
%TEMP%\$(ProjectName)\$(Platform)\$(Configuration)\
to
C:\temp\$(ProjectName)\$(Platform)\$(Configuration)\
It works now. NO idea why.
In my case the problem was Google Drive: I forgot that the project was under a synced folder and G Drive probably locked that file. Pausing the sync didn't help since the error was throwed anyway.
Moving the project folder to another location not synced by Google Drive solved my issue.
Just to mention, at the beginning I thought it was my anti-virus, since when examinating the file using procexp it showed that the file was used by one of my anti-virus process. Excluding the folder project from my anti-virus scan didn't help in my case.
the simplest solution is "build one more time":
BuildConsole abc.sln /rebuild /cfg="release|Win32"
if %errorlevel% neq 0 (
BuildConsole abc.sln /cfg="release|Win32"
if %errorlevel% neq 0 (
rem process error
exit 1
)
)
I just ran into this problem and Google led me here. For me, it was Google Drive syncing my project files while I'm trying to run. Pausing Google Drive sync temporarily solved it, but I'd rather there was a way for Google Drive to keep its hands off while Visual Studio is doing its stuff. If anyone knows how I can configure that, please let me know
Basically, yesterday I could program in C++ and today I cannot.
I'm trying to write a simple hello world program in Eclipse Helios using the MinGW C/C++ compiler and I'm running into several problems, and I believe this one to be the root of it.
At first the program compiled and built, but when I tried to run it, an error dialogue said the FirstProject.exe file could not be found/does not exist in the launch configuration. However, I got no errors building and I could clearly see the binaries in Debug/FirstProject.exe in my project explorer. I tried refreshing my project explorer and alas, the file disappeared before my eyes.
I tried building the program again, and that's when I get this error:
c:/mingw/bin/../lib/gcc/mingw32/4.6.1/../../../../mingw32/bin/ld.exe: final link failed: No space left on device
I don't know what device it's talking about. I have more than 1TB left on this hard drive, so it can't be that. I tried emptying my %Temp% folder and recycling bin (suggestions I found trying to search for a solution for this problem) but to no avail.
It may be worth noting that C++ programs I have written in the past are still running. I'm very new to programming, so I don't know how much information you need, but I'll gladly add anything you need if you think you can help me out.
I just solved this on one of the computers at work which had the same issue when compiling through Codelite. Moving workspaces, rebooting, and reinstalling Codelite didn't fix the problem. I also checked permissions on the /temp folder which were fine.
It turns out there were permission issues/other issues with the disk. Running a disk check fixed a few issues on the disk and that allowed the program to compile. If this doesn't solve your issue you may also want to try disabling any anti-virus/spyware programs and try again.
I just solved this problem on my PC. Actually what the problem in my case was that my windows defender (or any antivirus in someone's case) was blocking ld.exe from accessing the protected folder that is the source code folder. You can correct this by going into the Virus and threat protection settings of your PC and then find there for blocked history. You will definitely find there a history record of that blockage. Then just go and allow on this device it. And boom 😁
So, I'm starting a C++ class right now, and I've configured NetBeans (which I use normally for PHP and Java Development) to use the Cygwin compiler/debugger. This is my first structured experience with C++, and I'm running into a slight issue. When I attempt to run a program within NetBeans (F11 or the Green Triangle) the project builds correctly, no errors or warnings, but then won't run. I receive the following error:
The application failed with exit code -1073741515 (0xc0000135).
This could indicate that no required .dll was found in the PATH.
Please try to start the following command from the command shell (cmd.exe).
This may give some additional information.
C:/Users/Eric/Documents/NetBeansProjects/CS217ASeminar1/dist/Debug/Cygwin-Windows/cs217aseminar1
RUN FAILED (exit value -1,073,741,515, total time: 58ms)
When I attempt to execute the given file within a command shell, I get no errors and the program runs successfully. The research I've done on this error usually indicates that C:\cygwin and/or C:\cygwin\bin (my install directories) aren't in the path. However, I've verified that I they've been added to the path, and I can run arbitrary programs from both of those folders.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to resolve this error, or any experience with something similar? Obviously, it's not a huge deal, but I'd like to be able to use NetBeans's built in functionality.
Thanks in advance.
Edit: After tinkering a bit with the settings of my project in an attempt to fix it, it appears that the error was being caused by the Profiler in NetBeans. Since that only works on Linux/Solaris, and this is a Windows 7 box, disabling that caused no loss of functionality and solved the issue. Thanks for everyone who tried to help.

Right click on project change set configuration from debug to release. It worked for me.
Might be wrong, but it sounds like your path might not be set correctly...
