Trouble building chromium with ninja

[Jeffrey Cespedes]

OS: Windows 8.1

With, Visual Studio 2013 Community & Windows Kit 10 SDK installed.

I am trying to build Chromium using ninja, whenever I get it to run using either "ninja -C out\Debug chrome && out\Debug\chrome.exe" or "ninja -C out\Debug_x64 chrome && out\Debug_x64\chrome.exe", it fails on "ACTION Copying D3D Compiler DLL...", I have Windows 10 KIT SDK installed, and I can see the D3DCompiler_47.dll in the folder. What could be the problem? Any help appreciated.

[Nico Weber]

What's the error message?

Take a look at out\Debug_x64\environment.x64

If the paths inside are still be based at 8.1 SDK, you might want to edit them manually so they point at 10 SDK.

[Jeffrey Cespedes]

This is the new output, I changed everything to point to the 10 sdk

Still having trouble with this. What is the most widely used OS to build chromium with, without getting these problems? If this doesn't work out now, I might just wipe and reload, or if Linux is the better alternative, I will see about dual booting. 

[Max Stepin]

Try

cd C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\Include
mklink /d 10.0.10240.0 10.0.10586.0

It's from https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=568201

Probably Ubuntu.

Hmm, I seem to be missing the "Include' Folder under /Window Kits/10. Not sure why.

[Jeffrey Cespedes]

Thank you, I will keep that in mind.

UPDATE:

I've noticed https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/master/docs/windows_build_instructions.md#Setting-up-Windows

requires Win10 SDK version to be 10.0.14393.0

BUT I've installed a higher version 10.0.15063.0.

THEN, I copied the 10.0.15063.0 to 10.0.14393.0

FINALLY, I got the the following error:

> THEN, I copied the 10.0.15063.0 to 10.0.14393.0

At that point you are in uncharted territory. You might have better luck if you installed the 10.0.14393.0 SDK. It should side-by-side install with 10.0.15063.0. Old installers can be found here: https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/downloads/sdk-archive

> I manually added C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.0A\Bin to PATH

That means that you are running a really old version of mc.exe and it apparently doesn't support the -m switch. This tool is supposed to be found, I believe, in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\bin\x64".

Before you go too far, try these sanity-check steps:

C:\>"%VS140COMNTOOLS%..\..\VC\vcvarsall.bat" amd64_x86 10.0.14393.0

C:\>where cl

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC\bin\amd64_x86\cl.exe

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC\bin\amd64\cl.exe

C:\>where mc

C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\bin\x64\mc.exe

C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\bin\x86\mc.exe

C:\>set include

INCLUDE=C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC\INCLUDE;C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC\ATLMFC\INCLUDE;C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\include\10.0.14393.0\ucrt;C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\NETFXSDK\4.6.1\include\um;C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\include\10.0.14393.0\shared;C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\include\10.0.14393.0\um;C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\include\10.0.14393.0\winrt;

If you have installed VC++ 2015 Update 3, including the C++ development tools (which are not installed by default) and the 10.0.14393.0 SDK, then these steps should work and should give the same results. If the results are different then Chrome will probably not build and it is better to figure out what went wrong rather than trying to hand-patch things together.

I'll update the instructions to mention the SDK installer. It is unfortunate that Microsoft's 10.0.15063.0 SDK is broken (missing header file). I hope they fix it soon.

[Bruce]

BTW, just to further clarify, it is known that Chrome will *only* build with the 14393 SDK. We need features that are not present in earlier SDKs, and later ones contain a bug and cannot compile #include <Bits.h> without patching.

Also, I just updated the instructions to make this clearer and to specify where to get the 14393 SDK: crrev.com/2846643002

[Tao X]

Hi, Bruce

Thanks for your detailed information. 

Now, half of the building progress has passed, there is no exception occurred. 

It seems that will take a long time to complete the building task. I make this feedback here in advance.

[Jan Rucka]

Which version? Did you follow documentation? Here:

http://docs.nwjs.io/en/latest/For%20Developers/Building%20NW.js/

But most importantly this is Chromium forum not NW.js. NW.js Chromium fork has lot of changes. I would recommend you to ask here (NW.js forum).

https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/nwjs-general

[Sumit Kushwaha]

Thanks for the response Jan.

Following the same docs, I am trying to build nwjs17th version. So I executed ninja -C out/nw nwjs command and getting this error.

I have installed Universal Windows Apps Development Tools > Tools (1.4.1) and Windows 10 SDK (10.0.14393). But I think some how the build process is not able to get files associated with these SDKs, like it is not able to find "windows.h" file here.

[Jan Rucka]

It seems that something is wrong with your Visual studio since it cannot open windows.h. Not 100% sure but I think you need VS2013 for NW.js 0.17 (VS2015 is from 0.18 and later if I am right). But if you don't have really special reason you should build latest stable (0.24 currently).

[Sumit Kushwaha]

I restarted building nw24 from source instead of nw17 as before. But I am not sure why I am getting the following syntax error. I have posted this on NWJS group as well. If this is a general issue and you could give me some clue about it then that would great.

The compiler is complaining of a syntax error because your code has a syntax error. The Chromium build machines are green so there is something different/wrong with your local setup. You can try looking at that file, looking at the history of that file, syncing again in case there was a temporary bug, or looking to see what could cause the error to happen on your machine and not elsewhere. Many of those steps can only be done by you, on your machine.

The errors say:

c:\users\administrator\codebase\nwjs\src\content\nw\src\common\node_hooks.h(55): error C4430: missing type specifier - int assumed. Note: C++ does not support default-int

c:\users\administrator\codebase\nwjs\src\content\nw\src\common\node_hooks.h(55): error C2146: syntax error: missing ';' before identifier 'g_uv_init_nw_fn'

I can't see the source but I've seen enough error messages to know that this means that g_uv_init_nw_fn is supposed to be a typedef and it isn't. So there's your mystery - figure out why that typedef is not being set and trace that back to figure out what is different on your machine.

I don't see that identifier or that header file anywhere in the Chromium source code (see cs.chromium.org to verify this for yourself) so you'll have to talk to NWJS.

Also, I'm not sure what your last two emails, containing just links to other email threads, were supposed to be about.
