Hi William,

 

I just tested building xml2Src and it worked fine for me.

 

This is an abbreviated version of the build output.

Note that it first build xml2.lib and xml2.dll and then built nanohttp.stream.lib and .dll.

 

The only reason it would not do this is if you have not defined XML2_EXTERNAL=NO.

 

• I haven't configured CONFIG_SITE.local at all - NO seems to be the default. (?)

 

Did you install CONFIG_SITE.local from EXAMPLE_CONFIG_SITE.local as explained in the InstallGuide?  https://areadetector.github.io/master/install_guide.html#release-and-config-files

 

I think the behavior you see can only be explained if you don’t have an areaDetector/configure/CONFIG_SITE.local file at all, or if you do have that file but have modified it from EXAMPLE_CONFIG_SITE.local. 

 

EXAMPLE_CONFIG_SITE.local does define XML2_EXTERNAL=NO in this line: https://github.com/areaDetector/areaDetector/blob/78fae55898b9028e756eb080367cd6aad8913b54/configure/EXAMPLE_CONFIG_SITE.local#L115

Hi Mark,

• Is XML2_EXTERNAL defined to be NO in areaDetector/configure/CONFIG_SITE.local?

I haven't configured CONFIG_SITE.local at all - NO seems to be the default. (?)

• Just before you get that error do you see xml2.lib being built?  Does it exist in the ADSupport/lib/windows-x64 directory?

no, and no.

thanks for helping :)
