msys make throwing access violation only when run from CL

Post by zetaPRIME »

CodeLite version 9.2.6 (not self-compiled)
OS: Windows 8 x64
Compiler: msys make as custom build command; MSYS-1.0.17 as included in DevkitARM for 3DS homebrew development

For whatever reason, make doesn't work at all from CL even though it works perfectly from a terminal.
Build output:

Code: Select all

MESSAGE: Entering directory `D:\3DSdev\starlauncher'
C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe /C make
----------Building project:[ StarLauncher - Debug ]----------

 646592 [main] make 17568 handle_exceptions: Error while dumping state (probably corrupted stack)
And to make matters even more bizarre, it worked fine when I first got this set up, but after setting up code completion search paths it spat out "make: command not found"; adding the relevant paths to the PATH variable within CL results in it finding make but giving the aforementioned error.

(notably, the error doesn't happen if make doesn't find a makefile, so it's not an instantaneous crash, it would seem)

Try starting CodeLite from within the MSYS terminal

Almost no change, but it does give a partial stack trace now:

Code: Select all

you probably added some paths to the PATH environment variable that causes make to load some wrong DLLs


I suggest that you remove any changes done to PATH environment variable , start codelite from the MSYS terminal and try again

well, the paths with the correct DLLs are searched first... and if I remove my path modifications it doesn't find make at all despite it still being in the path? also, the path within codelite's environment is still different from within command prompt for whatever reason

You can open a terminal (CMD) from within CodeLite and then try run your make program.
The CMD opened from CodeLite should have the save environment as CodeLite uses for launching your make program.

From their, you can run dependency walker or something similar to see what is the difference
