Re: [edk2-test] SctPkg compilation is failing

[Meenakshi Aggarwal <meenakshi.aggarwal@nxp.com>]

Hi Supreeth,

I am able to compile SctPkg with your suggested changes.

Yes, we are trying eith UDK2017 as this is what mentioned in How To Build".

I tried with edk2's master branch today and faced following error:


build.py...
/home/meenakshi/SCT/edk2/SctPkg/Library/SctGuidLib/SctGuidLib.inf(...): error 5000: MODULE_TYPE is not given


Thanks,
Meenakshi

Hi Meenakshi,

I was able to reproduce this error.
This is because a change in the edk2 file BaseTools/Source/C/Makefiles/app.makefile
which was using relative path to make it work with absolute path.
This fix is present in latest edk2 versions already.
Hence, as indicated earlier I will update build instructions so as to point to edk2-stable201903 tag in the next few days.

Assuming you are using UDK2017 still, please replace relative path to absolute path in your edk2 source and you will be able to compile.

Diff details below.

Hi Supreeth,

I tried the step suggested by you, but still facing error:

Also, i can't see any update in compilation steps in edk2-test repository.
Please update latest steps.

Subject: RE:[edk2-test] SctPkg compilation is failing

Changing Subject line to append [edk2-test].

If the source code for edk2 and/or edk2-test is stale, this may happen,
as GenBin is no longer a pre-built binary but it is getting built from the source.

Please try this with the existing build and recompile.
rm -f $EDK_TOOLS_PATH/Source/C/bin/GenBin

Also,
Build instructions need update, since UTWG decided to use edk2 stable releases tag.
I will update the instructions today.

Thanks,
