This page describes several common problems encountered when building a STRIDE TestApp using the sandbox and suggested solutions.

Make Error 1

Symptom

On Windows, when attempting to build the Sandbox testapp, you encounter an error indicating that: 

‘cl’ is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

For example: 

C:\STRIDE\SDK\Windows\src>..\bin\make.exe testapp
cl -c -nologo -W4 -wd4996 -wd4702 -D_UNICODE -DUNICODE -DWIN32 -D_CONSOLE -DUNDER_NT -I”.” -I”../../Runtime” -I”../../SLAP” -I”../../GRS” -I”../o
ut/src” -I”../sample_src” -GS -Zi -DNDEBUG -MD -O2 -D_LIB -DSTRIDE_STATIC -Fd”../out/desktop-Windows_NT-obj//cl.pdb” -Fo”../out/desktop-Windows_NT-o
bj/srapi.o” ”../../Runtime/srapi.c” 
‘cl’ is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
make: *** [../out/desktop-Windows_NT-obj/srapi.o] Error 1
Cause

The compiler, cl.exe can't be found on your PATH.

Soultion

Make sure you have Microsoft Visual Studio 2003 or later installed.

Be sure that you are building from a Visual Studio command prompt. This ensures that the compiler and linker are on your PATH.

To open a Visual Studio Command prompt:

  • Click the Start button, point to All Programs, Microsoft Visual Studio 200X, Visual Studio Tools, and then click Visual Studio 200X Command Prompt.

Make Error 2

Symptom

On Windows, when attempting to build the Sandbox testapp, the following error is observed. 


C:\stride\SDK\Windows\src>..\bin\make.exe TestApp
Syntax error: “(” unexpected
Syntax error: “(” unexpected
Syntax error: end of file unexpected (expecting “then”)
make: *** [../out] Error 2
Cause

This error occurs because gmake on Windows will search for a bash (or csh) anywhere in your PATH when executing shell commands and only default to cmd.exe (DOS shell) when no bash is found. The sandbox Makefile uses DOS shell (cmd) syntax, so when a bash is found on your PATH, this results in gmake submitting a command with DOS syntax to a bash shell which results in the error.

Most commonly, this problem is caused by an installation of Cygwin.

Solution
  • Remove any directories from your PATH that contain a bash shell executable or otherwise prevent bash from being found. (e.g. rename its parent directory).

Make Error 3

Symptom

On Linux, when attempting to build the Sandbox testapp, the following error is observed. 


# make testapp
g++ -c -I”.” -I”../../Runtime” -I”../../SLAP” -I”../../GRS” -I”../out/src” -I”../sample_src” -fPIC -D_DEBUG -O0 -g3 -Wall -o ”../out/i386-Linux-obj/srtestpp.obj” ”../../Runtime/srtestpp.cpp” 
/bin/sh: g++: command not found
make: *** [../out/i386-Linux-obj/srtestpp.obj] Error 127
Cause

The C++ compiler, g++ can't be found on your PATH.

Most commonly, this problem is caused by not having a complete installation of GNU Compiler Collection.

Solution

Make sure you have a compele GNU Compiler Collection installed.
