That’s an interesting idea,

I’m not sure why cmd is failing to invoke bash properly, but I will try and 
figure it out.

Also, for addressing invoking bash.exe without copying it to SysWow64, you can 
reference it by C:\Windows\Sysnative\bash.exe from a 32-bit process. It still 
doesn’t make the target succeed, but at least it removes the need to copy the 
file around.

Thanks

Subject: Re: [CMake] Bash on ubuntu on windows as target

Well what I was trying to do was to actually have a target inside the windows 
build that would trigger the linux build so to build both at the same time. 
imagine you have a VS project one of the "projects" would be the linux build. 
So as long as the build folder is different I could have both building in sync 
everytime. Get the idea?

If I just do a full build inside bash everything works great =)

+1 for the initiative. Wouldn’t it make more sense however to make it a

should be something very similar.

Tárgy: [CMake] Bash on ubuntu on windows as target

Hi All,

Windows 10 anniversary edition comes with support to execute Linux binaries. I 
have been trying to use it with one of our projects, but I have been getting a 
weird error. Maybe someone can help me?

The target is pretty simple:

set(BASH "C:\\Windows\\System32\\bash.exe")
set(ARGS "--help")
add_custom_target(linux ${BASH} ${ARGS})

If I then build that project in visual studio (with some extra verbosity) I get:

Target "CustomBuild" in file "C:\Program Files 
(x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft.Cpp\v4.0\V140\Microsoft.CppCommon.targets" from project 
"C:\_Working\delegate\build\linux.vcxproj" (target 
"_BuildGenerateSourcesAction" depends on it):

The command line seems correct. If I just copy it to the windows prompt it 
works fine:

C:\Users\tmc>  C:\Windows\System32\bash.exe --help
GNU bash, version 4.3.11(1)-release-(x86_64-pc-linux-gnu)

        --posix
        --rcfile
        --restricted
        --verbose
        --version
Shell options:
        -ilrsD or -c command or -O shopt_option         (invocation only)
        -abefhkmnptuvxBCHP or -o option
Type `/bin/bash -c "help set"' for more information about shell options.
Type `/bin/bash -c help' for more information about shell builtin commands.
Use the `bashbug' command to report bugs.


I also tried to use it from the visual studio "external tools" and it seems to 
work. So I am not sure what is going on. Is there a way to debug custom_targets?

In case anyone tries the example above on a 64 bit machine: You will need to 
copy bash.exe from system32 to syswow64 since VS is 32 bits.
