Help with compiling

Open zack4485 opened this issue 4 years ago • 2 comments

All of the instructions seem wrong...

  1. The dependency on Cygwin was not noted and I cannot find anything that actually depends on Windows 2003 DDK 3790.1830
  2. The instructions say to "install" UDK2015 but I can't find anything to install; does it just need to be downloaded?
  3. All of the file paths in the instructions are wrong; for example the edksetup.bat file is not in the basetools directory
  4. Even if I move files around and edit batch scripts the build still fails
  5. The build command is ignoring the content of target.txt

Can I trouble you to provide a LOT more detail so that I can build this on my own?

The issue I had was with the UDK2015 Release zip which I could only fix by instead downloading the tagged branch of UDK2015 from 'https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/tree/UDK2015' and manually adding the 'BaseTools\Bin\win32' folder from the UDK2015 release zip.

At this point you should be able to just follow the instructions from step 3 (but drop the 'BaseTools' path component in steps 3, 4, 7 & 8) onwards in the provided README.MD of this repo (assuming you have already done points 1 & 2). If your still having problems I'd suggest completing step 4 onwards using a developer admin prompt for VS2015.

Sounds like there may be a type-o or two in my instructions. If someone would please provide me with more detailed instructions for the fix, I am glad to update for all! thanks
