Problem compiling scummvm

Post by Vorph »

Hello there...

I couldn't compile the last revisions of scummvm due to the following error:

src\scummvm-svn\base\internal_version.h(8): fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'internal_revision.h': No such file or directory

The file is missing indeed and doesn't seem to exist on the github either...

Hi!

A couple questions:
  • Are you using Visual Studio 2010 or Visual Studio 2008/2005?
  • Did you use the default batch file in the dists folder or did you use a custom command line? If so, can you copy the one you used?
  • Are you building out-of-tree (ie. not inside one of the msvc8/9/10 folders)?
  • Did you touch the generated project files in any way (changing build events, etc.)?
  • What does the rest of the build log say? In particular, at the start of the scummvm compilation (after all the engines have been compiled), does it say anything about failing to determine a revision number?
Thanks!

Hello,

- I'm using Visual Studio 2010
- I used the standard "create_msvc10.bat" file, if thats the one you are talking about...using a freshly complied "create_project.exe"
- ehhh ?? I don't think so...
- noooo
- here is the complete output:

32>------ Rebuild All started: Project: scummvm, Configuration: Debug Win32 ------
32> Executing Pre-Build script...
32>

Thanks for the quick reply
