unable to find lib.exe path in windows about rapidgame HOT 10 CLOSED

Are you sure you got those paths correct? It looks like it finds your MSBuild.exe in the 14.0 folder which is VS 2015. But you have specified the 10.0 folder in the above path which corresponds to VS 2010.

If you have further troubles I recommend taking a look at cocos2d-x new gen-libs. It might have already made RapidGame obsolete.

Yes it is correct.Still it does not take the path.
I see in updates as ,
August 11, 2015: On Windows, the path to MSBuild.exe, Lib.exe and VCTargetsPath can be set manually in case they cannot be automatically located.

How can I set these paths manually.is there any information to that.
Because I already set path for lib.exe in libexepath.text in rapidgame node_module,but not works.

from rapidgame.

I find the issue,in rapidgame.js file a function for getting libpath as "getLibExePath".In that checking file,but we provide path only as " if (fileExists(libExePath)) " as passed whole file path it is executed successfully but it takes some time.Thats fine,but after completing the project it shows the error as follows,

Build FAILED.

I found "prebuildWin" function in rapidgame.js file in line no 754 as

// set VCTargetsPath
// (overcome error MSB4019: The imported project "C:\Microsoft.Cpp.Default.props" was not found.)
process.env["VCTargetsPath"] = vcTargetsPath;

is there any issue here or in my System.

Thanks for looking...

from rapidgame.

Sorry, can you post your code for fixing getLibExePath?

from rapidgame.

In regards to the props issue, you either need to let it run the complete git diff when downloading cocos2d-x or else manually change your cocos\2d\cocos2dx.props file like this.

I installed VS 2015 community version it solves the problem.

But android prebuild fails,It show the following error

I did like the above thread but not worked.

Guide me to further.Thanks

from rapidgame.

1. android-ndk-r10e is the problem.I installed android-ndk-r9d.It works.

2.In cygwin , white spaces in path does not take so I put environment variables for path which contains "Program Files" as "Progra~1", because My Machine is 64-bit version.

3.Prebuild is succeeded.

4.After creating the project,with out any modifications I fired the command "make",build fails.

The Following error came.

I am awaiting for your reply.

Thank you very much.

from rapidgame.

Sorry man, I really haven't tried the Windows + Android build. Another developer got that all working. Maybe try gen-libs instead of RapidGame?

from rapidgame.

@johnramesh, I was having some trouble making it work on Windows too, tried the gen-libs and it worked on first. This guy wrote a quick guide on how to make it work for the win32 VS 2015 build, worked for me ;) http://discuss.cocos2d-x.org/t/prebuilt-for-win32-cocos-gen-libs-p-win32/24497.

The bad part, is that it doesn't have a template project (yet), so you have to create a new project, delete the cocos2d folder inside it, and make the necessary changes for each platform specific project for targeting the prebuilt lib.

from rapidgame.

The new Android prebuild command is greatly simplified in RapidGame 1.0.0. It can even be run with a command prompt instead of cygwin. Hopefully this issue is solved. If not, go ahead and re-open or open a new issue.
