Error during sample compile

Mar 20, 2009 12:14 PM

I've followed the install and test guide (at http://labs.adobe.com/wiki/index.php/Alchemy:Documentation:Getting_Sta rted for Window). Everything seemed to went right until I started to compile the test file (stringecho). There I get two error messages that the two files global.abc and playerglobal.abc could not be found ....

[Compiler] Error #1063: Unable to open file: /cygdrive/c/Users/sascha/Applications/Alchemy/flashlibs/global.abc.
[Compiler] Error #1063: Unable to open file: /cygdrive/c/Users/sascha/Applications/Alchemy/flashlibs/playerglobal. abc.

therefore the resulting swc file in not valid (1.23Kb). It would be cool to get some help here, I'm a total beginner with Cygwin/Unix and Alchemy and have no clue where the problem could be.

Thanks,
sascha

There must be correct script hacks.pl
it is in the folder / ahacks /
if ( `uname` = ~ / CYGWIN /)
change in
if ( `/ bin / uname` = ~ / CYGWIN /)

Thanks so much, I had this problem too but it worked like a charm. This step should really be added to the installation guide.

When I did the change as described above
I did get this response ...

$ gcc stringecho.c -O3 -Wall -swc -o stringecho.swc
cygwin warning:
MS-DOS style path detected: N:/cygwin/alcsdk05/avm2-libc/include
Preferred POSIX equivalent is: /alcsdk05/avm2-libc/include
CYGWIN environment variable option "nodosfilewarning" turns off this warning.
Consult the user's guide for more details about POSIX paths:
http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using.html#using-pathnames
WARNING: While resolving call to function 'main' arguments were dropped!

This is cygwin 1.7.

In the end, the new stringecho.swc worked.
EchoTest.as printed echo to the Output console as expected.
