Hi,
Thanks for your help.
I am to build base tools and able to generate bin files.
“Build” command is generated.
Later, I am trying to build “EmulatorPkg”.
And running into VfrCompile error.
'VfrCompile' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: '"VfrCompile' : return code '0x1'
Stop.
'VfrCompile' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
I can see VfrCompile.exe generated in “BaseTools”.
Attached build log for “Emulator Pkg”.
I tried checking the Env Paths .
Regards,
Navdeep

Navdeep,
Yes since the 202002 stable tag there have been submodules introduced to the basetools. If you look closely you will see in the CI process this required a change where stuart_setup is run before calling edk2toolsbuild.py.
If you are using “stuart” to build then that is the suggested path as stuar_setup will init your submodules listed in the RequiredSubmodules (https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/blob/master/.pytool/CISettings.py#L136).
Given that the edk2 project and ecosystem has numerous ways to setup your environment and build, you can also just make sure your workspace is complete prior to running Edk2ToolsBuild.py. In this case you only need to run “git submodule update --init”
I just did this and it works fine with VS2019.
Jim,
Just as fyi as I know there are lots of reasons for toolchain selection.
I believe the Visual studio build tools are available free of charge (not the IDE but the compilers). Directions here.

Hi Bret,

On further digging through the logging file BASETOOLS_BUILD.txt.

Have you installed the up-to-date Python requirements? “pip install –upgrade -r pip-requirements.txt”?
That’s the first thing I would check. Otherwise, happy to look at the problem with you.
