Trying to compile the develop branch....

[Lindon]

@d-healey

OK an odd moment with the forum there..

so when I try and checkout the develop branch it tells me this:

$ git checkout develop
error: Your local changes to the following files would be overwritten by checkout:
        projects/standalone/HISE Standalone.jucer
        projects/standalone/JuceLibraryCode/AppConfig.h
        projects/standalone/JuceLibraryCode/JuceHeader.h
Please commit your changes or stash them before you switch branches.
Aborting

which I think are the auto written files from teh last build of develop no?

so I should be able to stash these (even tho I wont use them) and continue?

[Lindon]

@lindon - nope, getting this again:

1>c:\hise\projects\standalone\jucelibrarycode\include_hi_dsp_library.cpp(9): fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'hi_dsp_library/hi_dsp_library.cpp': No such file or directory

and all the indexType errors again too...

[d.healey]

@lindon Did you delete the master branch source that you built previously?

[Lindon]

@d-healey nope should I?

[d.healey]

@lindon Yes, definitely. Only one copy of the source per system, dems da rulez

[Lindon]

@d-healey -but the develop branch overwrites the master branch when I say

git checkout develop

doesnt it?

[d.healey]

@lindon Oh I didn't realise you were using git. In that case it's fine, that follows the rule. Did you resave the .jucer file after switching branches and clean the build folder before recompiling?

[Lindon]

@d-healey - hm I resaved the jucer with

Save Project and open in IDE...

but I didnt clean the build folder....

[d.healey]

@lindon said in Trying to compile the develop branch....:

but I didnt clean the build folder....

Do that from within VS before building.

[Lindon]

@d-healey within VS?

Whats the command to do that?

[d.healey]

@lindon It's in the build menu, it's called something like "clean project" or "clean solution"

[Lindon]

@d-healey

OK did that - nope still failing with:

c:\hise\hi_dsp_library\snex_basics\snex_indextypes.h(64): error C2825: 'IndexType': must be a class or namespace when followed by '::' (compiling source file ..\..\JuceLibraryCode\include_hi_dsp_library_01.cpp)

[d.healey]

@lindon When you switched branch did it change to the newer projucer version?

[Lindon]

@d-healey yes.

[d.healey]

@lindon I have a dude doing some electrical work at the moment so I'll be without power for a bit but I can get on a call with you later this afternoon and see if we can figure out what's going on if you like.

[Lindon]

@d-healey yep that'd be good - thanks mate. Let me know when you are free...

[Lindon]

@lindon - well I reverted to master and that will compile correctly....but branch(ing) to develop gives me all these IndexType errors again....

[Lindon]

@lindon well the problems continue....

I removed VS2017 and installed Vs2019, and then I needed to install an SDK 10.0.16xxx to get the release project to compile, but now as soon as I laod my MAJO|R project (4 samplers) it does this:

[Lindon]

@lindon - OK uninstalled 2019 and re-installed 2017 and I can get the Release to build, but when I load my project HISE just crashes, built the debug version - load my project and HISE just hangs...

This has become deeply depressing...close to giving up.

[d.healey]

@lindon There is something in your project that is not compatible with the dev branch, this is to be expected with a complex project, I had a few projects that wouldn't open without a bit of tweaking. It's usually something really simple.

Open your main script in a text editor and comment out almost everything. The project should open, if it doesn't then the problem isn't with your script. If it does open, start uncommenting stuff until the problem appears.

If you want to use a more professional approach you could debug it in visual studio, but who wants to do that :p
