We are looking at it.

It seems to be a problem in the edk2-basetools but at this point it still isn't obvious.

You can do a 'pip uninstall edk2-basetools' and then I would expect your build would work.

I also see that you didn't build edk2 basetools (step 6) documented here: edk2/EmulatorPkg/PlatformCI at master · tianocore/edk2 (github.com). Without doing that your build will fail as well.

The CI system is building fine so we are still looking into it.

I'll update the thread when we have more info.

Thanks

Hi all,

I am trying to build EDK2 from most recent Github (namely, EmulatorPkg) with the new Stuart build system on Windows 10 22H2 64 bit with VS 2019. I'm getting the following error which directed me to this mailing list. More details on my build process below.

I followed the directions on <https://github.com/tianocore/tianocore.github.io/wiki/How-to-Build-With-Stuart> and <https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/tree/master/EmulatorPkg/PlatformCI>. Are these the correct set of instructions to follow? If so, I entered the following commands and received the error above.

git clone https://github.com/tianocore/edk2.git
cd edk2
python -m venv .venv
.\.venv\Scripts\Activate.ps1
stuart_setup -c EmulatorPkg/PlatformCI/PlatformBuild.py TOOL_CHAIN_TAG=VS2019 -a X64
stuart_update -c EmulatorPkg/PlatformCI/PlatformBuild.py TOOL_CHAIN_TAG=VS2019 -a X64
stuart_build -c EmulatorPkg/PlatformCI/PlatformBuild.py TOOL_CHAIN_TAG=VS2019 -a X64

A quick couple of print statements in the python code of basetools reveal that gGlobalDefines is an empty dictionary. Help would be greatly appreciated. Let me know if you need more information.

Thank you,
Ryder
