Hi DarkStar,

ok, don't worry, let's narrow things down:
  1. Which version of Windows are you using, 32- or 64-bit?
  2. Can you please upgrade to the latest version of SCons (1.3.0.d20100523) and try again? (Run scons -v to check and verify.)
  3. Next, please delete file .sconsign.dblite in the main Cafu directory, then try again.
  4. If it still doesn't work, what does scons -Q --debug=stacktrace output?
  5. In file SConstruct, comment out lines 295 and 297 (both lines start with if (result!=0): ...) by putting a # in front of them:

    Code: Select all

    # Compile wxWidgets for the current platform.
    if sys.platform=="win32":
        # Make sure the "compiler" string begins with "vc" and is three characters long.
        if compiler[0]=='v' and compiler[1]=='c' and len(compiler)==3:
            result=envDebug.  Execute("nmake /nologo /f makefile.vc BUILD=debug   SHARED=0 USE_OPENGL=1 RUNTIME_LIBS=static COMPILER_PREFIX="+compiler, chdir="ExtLibs/wxWidgets/build/msw");
            # if (result!=0): envDebug.  Exit(result);
            result=envRelease.Execute("nmake /nologo /f makefile.vc BUILD=release SHARED=0 USE_OPENGL=1 RUNTIME_LIBS=static COMPILER_PREFIX="+compiler, chdir="ExtLibs/wxWidgets/build/msw");
            # if (result!=0): envRelease.Exit(result);
            print "";   # Print just another empty line for better visual separation.
    
    Then try to re-run SCons.
  6. Finally, if all else fails, run scons -Q --ignore-errors
Please let us know the results of these steps, I'm very interested in learning what causes the trouble. :up:
Best regards,
Carsten

Ok, thanks. Good news is that I can reproduce things here. We're dealing with several independent issues:

First, although the Getting Started with the Cafu Source code documentation was correct regarding scons -Q, people tend to write scons -q instead. This however is asking for trouble, because option -Q has an utterly different meaning than option -q. Run scons --help for details.
I've now updated the documentation and removed all mentioning of -Q entirely, and hope that that avoids similar problems in the future.
For you, this means that you should not use -q as well. Please use -Q or omit it entirely, but don't use -q. :up:

The next point is simple: After the above changes and tests, we should re-establish a clean base environment for the build. Running the two commands

Code: Select all

del .sconsign.dblite
svn revert SConstruct
should take care of it.

Finally, and unfortunately, it seems that the latest version v1.3.0.d20100523 has a new bug where the previous version v1.3.0.d20100501 was fine, so please start SCons now like this:

Code: Select all

scons-1.3.0.d20100501.bat
(I've filed an appropriate bug report already, so that they can release a fixed version soon.)

Does this work?
Best regards,
Carsten

Good news:
New versions of SCons have just been released that fix the reported problems! :wohow:

I've also updated the related documentation accordingly, which now also recommends to use the newer SCons 2.0.0(.beta) releases.
