"HISE path not set" error in Win batch compile script

gorangrooves

Then, I remove the quotation marks from the path, so that the project path is this:

set project_dir=I:\AUDIO TEMPORARY\HISE PROJECTS\%project_name%

I get this:

HISE source is C:\HISE-develop
HISE path is C:\HISE-develop\projects\standalone\Builds\VisualStudio2022\x64\Release\App\HISE.exe

@Christoph-Hart I then place the project path back into "". It starts compiling, creating this:

It compiles only vst3 plugin. If you notice from the console print, it was supposed to compile standalone, but it output vst3 instead, probably twice, as there is no app compiled, but only the vst3.

d.healey

Is the project name exactly the same as the project xml?

gorangrooves

@d-healey Yes.

d.healey

@gorangrooves

%hise_path% export_ci "%project_dir%\XmlPresetBackups\%project_name%.xml" -t:standalone -a:x64 -p:""

What is -p:""?

gorangrooves

@d-healey I don't know. You tell me, it is your script

d.healey

@gorangrooves lol I just checked, apparently that's what we need for exporting standalone, so all good there.

d.healey

@gorangrooves So you get nothing output in Binaries\Compiled\App?

gorangrooves

@d-healey Correct. Nothing gets output there.

d.healey

@gorangrooves What happens if you comment out the VST3 compile, does it build the standalone then?

gorangrooves

@d-healey It doesn't compile.

@gorangrooves Perhaps it is using outdated AutogeneratedProject and batchCompile, as it didn't rebuild those.
I have to specify the path without "" to build those resources, then enclose the path in "" to compile the instrument.
Let me re-run both of those.

gorangrooves

@d-healey Removing the code to generate the vst3, managed to compile the standalone app.

Unfortunately, this process is worse than manual

@Christoph-Hart Am I correct to conclude that compiling using CI mode does not handle any spaces in the path folder names and perhaps in the project name?

I'll have to rename my folders to exclude spaces to see if that does the trick.

d.healey

@gorangrooves said in "HISE path not set" error in Win batch compile script:

The commandline won't work with spaces unless they are quoted or escaped.

Christoph Hart

Yeah I‘m also always messing up the paths with whitespaces in my scripts. The good news is that once you‘ve got the script working it‘s a breeze until you come back to it a few months later and something broke :)

gorangrooves

@Christoph-Hart I hope that I can get away with just making the folder paths without white space.
Changing project XML will require me to change the main container in the project, which will require me to change all references to it. Compiled plugins would also be affected, as will all my installer projects.

@d-healey As I demonstrated above, quotes won't work, as part of the script works with them, then the other part works without them. It is impossible to run the script completely with or without the quotes if there are white spaces in the folder path. (I hope it is only the folder path white spaces....)

d.healey

@gorangrooves said in "HISE path not set" error in Win batch compile script:

Did you try escaping the spaces?

gorangrooves

@d-healey let me try

gorangrooves

@d-healey No, that doesn't work either. The CMD uses ^ to escape, but is not being read by anything else, so that didn't work.
What can of worms did I open?...

d.healey

@gorangrooves Can you send me the project?
