Make sure you have followed the instructions at http://code.google.com/p/v8/wiki/BuildingWithGYP, in particular the command:

svn co http://src.chromium.org/svn/trunk/deps/third_party/cygwin@66844 third_party/cygwin

You can use TortoiseSVN or similar if you don't have and don't want a command-line "svn" executable.

Hi,

 

I am getting the same error on Windows. I have the v8-master code. Have downloaded the cygwin and python_26.

I have kept python_26 and cygwin at v8-master\tools\third_party. I use commands as follows:

 

python build/gyp_v8

 

Solution file of VS2008 is created. now when i open and build, i get the copilation error same as below.

Could you resolve this? Please let me know.

 

Thanks,

Neha

Hi,

 

Found the solution.

cygwin and python_26 should be in the folder third_party and path should be v8-master\third_party (same level as build folder) for the compilation error to be resolved.

Also to have the solution file in 2010 use the following command:

 

build\gyp_v8 -G msvs_version=2010

 

Thanks,

Neha

Well, observe the difference between this, which is what you say you did:

C:\...\v8-master\> svn co http://src.chromium.org/svn/trunk/tools/third_party/python_26@89111 tools/third_party/python_26

and this, which is what the instructions at http://code.google.com/p/v8/wiki/BuildingWithGYP tell you to do:

C:\...\v8-master\> svn co http://src.chromium.org/svn/trunk/tools/third_party/python_26@89111 third_party/python_26

one of them works, the other doesn't. (Same for cygwin.)

Yes exactly!

 

C:\...\v8-master\> svn co http://src.chromium.org/svn/trunk/tools/third_party/python_26@89111 third_party/python_26

would work!

But if you put python_26 and cygwin in tools/thirdparty, the code would not compile.
