Can not compile under Windows Visual Sutdios

[Katzmann]

Hello everyone,

I want to compile Warzone 2100 in MS Visual Studio 2008. I followed the Windows Compile Guide, but got stuck at the point 4: Under Properties –> Debugging –> Set your additional command line arguments. At a minimum you should specify the data directory using the --datadir commandline option

I set --datadir "C:\warzone-svn\data" in the command line arguments , but I still get the error message:

Fehler 1 error PRJ0019: Ein Tool hat einen Fehlercode aus folgender Quelle zurückgegeben: "Generating parser based on grammar..." framework framework

I would ver much appreciate any help.
Thanks,
Jens

Hi Katzmann,

i followed the description of this site, end up with the same error and could not find any solution here. Therfor i tried around a bit and the following steps let me now compile the source without having an interuption thru an error:

I use VC 9.0 (2008) C++ Express under Windows Vista x64 SP2 (Both German version).

German:
Erstellen > Batch erstellen... > Alle Auswählen > Erstellen

English:
Build > Generate Batch... > Mark all > Build

After that the build take some time but should work.

Code: Select all

Note: For me i had to change the Start object to Warzone2100 first to get a new "Warzone2100-Dbg.exe"
