Title: Starter.exe Problem in Standard Make

Hello Doug,

 

thanks for the quick answer here and in the newsgroup ;)

 

I will raise a bug.

 

I found out something more regarding the failure. The failure during calling the .cmd file is the result of a not expected/wrong/??? process id.

 

Greetings Marko T.

Betreff: RE: [cdt-dev] Starter.exe Problem in Standard Make

Wow, the first time I ran into a message on the newsgroup before the mailing list ;).

 

As I mentioned there, this is a bug. The starter.exe should work just like any other Runtime.exec() call just with the added ability to interrupt the process (SIGINT).

 

While we're on this topic, why are we using starter instead of Runtime.exec() for builds? Or am I missing other benefits? I know I've spent some time switching back to Runtime for things like getting environment variables and figuring out stuff for cygwin.

 

Doug.

Subject: [cdt-dev] Starter.exe Problem in Standard Make

Hello guys,

I am facing a strange problem when trying to run a software build in a Standard Make project (Win XP).

I am (CDT is) calling a .cmd file that itself calls some other tools that realize the software build (some parts are makefiles some are different technology). If I build the project I get an error (Exec error:Launching failed).

If I call the same command line through external tools the error is not appearing. The difference between both mechanisms is that CDT uses the starter.exe to run the command whereas the external tool calls it directly.

So I am asking myself now what does starter.exe do different ?

Is there any documentation about the starter.exe?

Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Kind regards
Marko Tomljenovic
