RE: SynApps build error : win32-x86

Hi Josh,

I just rebuilt the sequencer on my Windows machine.  Here is the output from the same place where you are getting an error:

"Installing created file ../../../bin/win32-x86/snc.exe"

The command that failed for you was:
..\\..\\..\\bin\\win32-x86\\lemon.exe o=. -g ../snl.lem > ../O.Common/snl.bnf.tmp

The command that worked for me was:
..\\..\\..\\bin\\win32-x86\\lemon.exe o=. -g ../snl.lem > ../O.Common/snl.bnf.tmp

They look identical to me.

What shell are you running in when you build?  I am running in the standard Windows "cmd" shell.

Subject: SynApps build error : win32-x86

Greetings all,

  I'm having a maddening error attempting to build synApps_5_6 on a windows machine. Visual Studio 10, GnuWin32 Make (3.81), Strawberry Perl. The following is generated while attempting to build the sequencer support. Note the somewhat crazy mix of forward and backward slashes, the apparent use of double slashes within path names, and (the portion that appears to generate the failure) the lack of any slashes within the path to the "lemon" executable causing the "command not found" error.

Does anyone have an idea what is happening here?
