I just ran into an issue with my files going missing in a CopyFilesStep for a project. When I open the Build Automation file, there’s nothing there for the files. However, the CopyFilesSteps show that the files that “should” be copied are missing.
Where are these files saved with a VCP / Text project?
Lots of data in VCP is in non-readable but ASCII text
Makes parsing the format a ton simpler
And some has no decent way to represent it as “text” - like save info
Here’s the entirety of the Build Automation file that I have in that project:
#tag BuildAutomation
Begin BuildStepList Linux
Begin BuildProjectStep Build
End
Begin CopyFilesBuildStep CopyLinuxHelpers
AppliesTo = 0
Destination = 4
Subdirectory =
End
End
Begin BuildStepList Mac OS X
Begin BuildProjectStep Build
End
Begin CopyFilesBuildStep CopyTools
AppliesTo = 0
Destination = 0
Subdirectory = Tools
FolderItem =
FolderItem =
End
Begin CopyFilesBuildStep Copydylib
AppliesTo = 0
Destination = 2
Subdirectory =
FolderItem =
End
End
Begin BuildStepList Windows
Begin BuildProjectStep Build
End
Begin CopyFilesBuildStep CopyWindowsHelpers
AppliesTo = 0
Destination = 0
Subdirectory = Tools
FolderItem =
FolderItem =
End
End
#tag EndBuildAutomation
Notice the there "FolderItem = " count is correct for each platform, just no entries.
