builder.CompletionStatus and vbld_BuildDone()

[citect]

Hi

I have got the project script below. The function "CreateXmlLogHandlingProject()" is working fine if "status" = vbldBuildCompFailed but it fails to run when "status" = vbldBuildCompDone or "status" = vbldBuildCompAborted.
When the script failed the last msgbox displayed is "Test 3".


Script:


Option Explicit

Function LogExt()

If Application.Options.LogFormat = "Text" Then
LogExt = "txt"
Else
LogExt = "xml"
End If

End Function


Function vbld_BuildStarting()
' delete any existing log file before the build begins
' This can be useful if a master project calls child projects
' which use the same log file as the master project, but the
' log file should be deleted only at the start of the master build.
' The global option 'Tools | Application Options | Logging | Delete
' log file at the start of each build' would cause the log file to
' be deleted at the beginning of the master and each child project,
' so instead that option can be unchecked and this step added to the
' start of the master project.

Dim logFile, message

' determine the log filename, retrieve with all macros/script expanded
logFile = Application.ExpandMacrosAndScript("%LOGFILE%")

' delete the file if it exists
If vbld_FSO.FileExists(logFile) Then
message = "Deleting log file '" + logFile + "' from vbld_BuildStarting event (go to Script Editor, Project tab to view script code)."
Builder.LogMessage vbCrLf + message + vbCrLf

vbld_FSO.DeleteFile logFile, True

It looks like you have extra double quotes here:

Select case status
case vbldBuildCompDone
objMacro.Value = ""%myEmail%"
case vbldBuildCompAborted
objMacro.Value = ""%myEmail%"
case vbldBuildCompFailed
objMacro.Value = "%myEmail%"
case else
objMacro.Value = ""%myEmail%"
end Select

which should be

Select case status
case vbldBuildCompDone
objMacro.Value = "%myEmail%"
case vbldBuildCompAborted
objMacro.Value = "%myEmail%"
case vbldBuildCompFailed
objMacro.Value = "%myEmail%"
case else
objMacro.Value = "%myEmail%"
end Select

[citect]

The extra quotes are a typo mistake. They do not exist in my real script.
The function now seems to work for failed and done status but it is still not working for the abort status.

[kinook]

I'm not sure -- Changing the event code to:

Function vbld_BuildDone(status)
CreateXmlLogHandlingProject(vbldBuildCompDone)
CreateXmlLogHandlingProject(vbldBuildCompFailed)
CreateXmlLogHandlingProject(vbldBuildCompAborted)
End Function

and building succeeds in our tests. Please send the info requested here:

2) Configuration Files:
See attached zip file

3) Other program Info:
Not Applicable

4) Problem Description:
See previous post. Also I attached the full bld file. The project is run from VisBuildPro.exe.

5) Detailed steps to reproduce the problem:
a) Failed Status(script works)
Run the bld project then press cancel when asked to enter a value to the macro.
b) Abort Status(script does not work)
Step the first step and then press the abort buton

6) bld file to reproduce the problem:
You will need to change the following line:
.Property("Server") = "AMAUSYD2.au.schneider-electric.com"

7) Log files:
Please not that when the bld project is aborted then there is no log file generated. I attached the log file when the bld project failed. I attached the trace from the output window from both scenarios(Failed status & Abort status).

[kinook]

I don't see a .bld file in the attachment.

[citect]

Sorry do not know what happened. re-attached with the bld proj

[kinook]

When I build the project, I get a prompt for CompileDir undefined macro, and after canceling the prompt:

Test 7


Test 8


A log file is created in both cases.

[citect]

To abort the script I used the "stop (ctrl+break)" button, the status is still abort but the project does not seem to complete.

If I run the bld project from visualcmd and the user press ctrl+break, will the project run to the end. I would like to receive an email when the user abort the project.

[kinook]

A couple problems with this:
1) The file loggers are currently disposed of before the vbld_BuildDone script event fires.
2) When the build is canceled, if the vbld_BuildDone event takes very long to run, it will be aborted (to handle the situation of a build being aborted while script code is executing, but it should wait for this particular event to finish).

We'll investigate explicitly supporting this in the future (there's also a request to support building failure steps if the build is canceled, which would provide another way to achieve this).

For now, you might try shortening the event script code (maybe just call Builder.RunProgram to invoke a pre-defined send mail project, passing dynamic parameters on the command-line).

[citect]

thanks for that. How can I be notified when you implemented point 2)?

[kinook]

We'll notify on this thread and also see http://www.kinook.com/Forum/showthread.php?threadid=2985

These are implemented in v7.5.

Hi

I installed the visualbuild 7.5 and one of my step is not working anymore.

1) See attached file
2) See attached file
3) N/A
4) The step "148 - Source-index The Driver PDBs..." in my project is not working anymore when using VisBuilCmd.exe. The step is just a "command" step This step used to work with 7.2a. Also this step is working if I use VisBuildPro.exe, not sure what is the difference!!
Attached the log file for both command "VisBuilCmd.exe" and "VisBuildPro.exe" of 7.5
5) Reproduceable with my project but required special structure.
6) See attached file
7) See attached file

[citect]

I find a way for you to reproduce it using the attached file. The project works if using VisBuildPro but not with VisProCmd. You will need to change the path of the bat file in step 2.


The output expected should be:

echo "/Source=D:\DrvGrp\NonODC\VC8\Drivers\DNPr\Developme nt\Branch2"
"/Source=D:\DrvGrp\NonODC\VC8\Drivers\DNPr\Developme nt\Branch2"

[kinook]

I get the same result for Pro and Cmd:

Try prefixing the Command field with

If that doesn't help, please try uninstalling Visual Build and downloading+installing http://www.kinook.com/Download/Temp/VisBuildProTest.exe

Thanks.

Try the last project(sourceindex.bld) I attached. The project just run a batch file. The batch file has on only echo command in it. I can see the echo lines if I use VisBuildPro but I cannot see them if I used VisBuildcmd. It looks like batch file are not run with VisBuildCmd!!!

[kinook]

I *did* build sourceindex.bld. The contents of DriverPack.bat are:

@echo off
echo Getting latest version of driver pack builder script.
tf get /force /noprompt $/Drivers/Utilities/DriverPackBuilder

echo Calling driver pack builder.
"C:\Program Files\VisBuildPro7\VisBuildCmd.exe" DLLPATHS=%1 "D:\DrvGrp\NonODC\Utilities\DriverPackBuilder\Drive rPack.bld"
pause
pause


and the output from both VisBuildCmd.exe and VisBuildPro.exe are the same (shown in my earlier post). Did you try my suggestions?

[citect]

I tried VisBuildProTest.exe but I get the same result. My project was working fine with 7.1 and 7.2. It stops working when I upgraded to 7.5.

[citect]

sourceIndex.bld has just a command step that call the batch file tfsindex.bat.

Sorry I put the wrong batch file. please find the correct one attached. you will need to rename the file to .bat

[kinook]

Your sourceIndex.bld was calling DriverPack.bat, not tfsindex.bat. I changed it to call tfsindex.bat and saved tfsindex.txt as tfsindex.bat (attached). With both cmd and pro, I get output of

It looks like the batch file is not fired up. How can I get hold of 7.2a

[citect]

I replied to your email directly. Did you received them?

How can I get hold of 7.2a?

We are using the build project quite a lot and I will be on leave tomorrow night. I need to restore a working system by then.

I am very puzzled now. I uninstalled 7.5 and re-installed 7.2a and the batch file is still not working when using VisBuildCmd. I am pretty sure the batch files were working before the installation of 7.5.

I do not think I uninstalled the system files. May be there are the problem.

Please can you which file where put in c:\windows\system by vis build installer?

[kinook]

None of the files installed to the system folder have changed since v7.2a, and I'm pretty sure they wouldn't affect this issue, but they are:
csftpav6.dll
cshtpav6.dll
csmsgav6.dll
csmtpav6.dll
csnwsav6.dll
cspopav6.dll
cstntav6.dll
cstrace6.dll
cstshav6.dll
capicom.dll
dzgt32.dll
dzips32.dll
dunzips32.dll

It appears the problem is that when a Run Program step calls your cmd file (or a bat file, which in turn calls the cmd file), no output is captured for the step? That is a strange one -- we couldn't reproduce that problem here with cmd/bat files like this and sourceIndex.bld:

-- tfsindex.bat --
echo %1
echo %2
echo %3
%~dp0\tfsindex.cmd %1 %2 %3

-- tfsindex.cmd --
echo %1
echo %2
echo %3

which results in output of:

Can you isolate the problem to a cmd file we can build here that reproduces the behavior?

[citect]

Any batch file is not working on my system. I get the same log (we can see the echo command of the batch file) as you when using VisBuildPro but not with VisBuildCmd.

You do not need to call a cmd or a bat file in the batch file called by Run Program step. The echo command is enough. I do not see the echo on my system.

How can we progress further?

[kinook]

It is odd -- both apps call the very same component that actually performs the build. And going back to 7.2a, which was working, now doesn't. What is the output when building the attached project with a command of

"C:\Program Files\VisBuildPro7\VisBuildCmd.exe" test.bld

? And what gets written to the log file C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Kinook Software\Visual Build Professional 7\VisBuildPro.log?

Thanks.

[citect]

I can see the time and the string abc when using VisBuildPro but I get the following output if I use VisBuildCmd (the time and "abc" are missing):

See attachment for VisBuildPro.log. This is using 7.5. Also if an exe is called from the Run Program step it is working fine. I do not know what is the difference.
I installed 7.5 before I found out about this issue on a third machine and I get the same output as above (no time and "abc" shown).

[kinook]

What is the result with the attached test2.bld?

Also, please send/post your current C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Kinook Software\Visual Build Professional 7\VisBuildPro.config file.

And what is the result with v7.1 (uninstall, then download+install http://www.kinook.com/Download/Old/VisBuildPro71.exe).

Thanks.

[citect]

Do you want me to try test.bld and not test2.bld on 7.1?

The result of test2.bld is as follow when using 7.5:

I might have some useful info:


After re-installing 7.1 and 7.2a the TEST.bld would still not work. But I was using the same cmd window as 7.5 to run the VisBuildCmd.

After opening a new cmd window and run VisBuildCmd on 7.1 then test.bld works fine.

Then I re-installed 7.5 and run VisBuildCmd on the same cmd window, TEST.bld is not working. Actually the bat file is not working anymore if I run it directly on the cmd window. It looks like the output are disabled for this cmd window but not entirely sure because I pretty sure that batch file is not executed at all.

Open a new cmd windows and run the same batch file directly from the window then the batch file works fine.


See the results:

Please build the attached init.bld project in the GUI and exit Visual Build, then in a new Command Prompt, build test3.bld (and also post VisBuildPro.config again). Thanks.

[citect]

To run init.bld project I had to install 7.5.0.4 (This version is not available for download, is it?)


Run the test.bld on a new cmd window and it works file, see result below:

Ok, it looks like the issue was with a change to improve capturing of Unicode text from console apps (apparently this only works on Windows Vista and later). Disabling that option (what init.bld does) in the 7.5.0.4 build will work. We have also backed that change out, and the main download should now work as expected (VisBuildCmd.exe 7.5.0.2 -- uninstall the current version first) from a new Command Prompt. Thanks.

[citect]

thanks for that, it seems to work. Your effort are appreciated
