Scons test fails with Release 3.0.0 on Windows

[bertbell2]

I am building the Release 3.0.0 code.

i am using Windows 11 64bit and MSVC 2019

I can build successfully but running scons test terminates with the following error.

scons: *** [build\samples\clib\demo.exe] Error 1120
scons: building terminated because of errors.

I have seen errors like this in the past where leading underscore on exposed functions in either added or missing.

Any ideas ?

Thanks,

Bert

Hi Bert,

This definitely isn’t a general problem compiling on Windows — we test Windows with MSVC 2019 (and 2022) regularly as part of our CI suite. You can see the latest case where that ran here. The question then is what is different about your configuration. For that, I think it would help to see the full output of the scons build command that includes some information from the configuration checks that are done at the start. It would also help to know what’s installed in your conda environment (the output of conda list).

Regards,
Ray

Hi Bert,

Thanks for providing the requested information. One thing I notice is that you have Cantera 2.6 already installed in your Conda environment. Further, the methods that you mention are all new in Cantera 3.0 (while there are various other Cantera function calls in demo.c that are not being reported as missing symbols). My guess is you are accidentally picking up another copy of the Cantera library files from either that installation of Cantera 2.6 or another one elsewhere on your system (I’m curious especially about whether there’s something in C:\Users\bertb\anaconda3\envs\ct-build\Library\lib.

Regards,
Ray

Removed the 2.6 install and successfully built and tested 3.0.0

Thanks for the help!
