yes, all the builds require the specs directory. It is best to always have specs & python + the language you care about checked out -- as many of the checks also use Python
for cross testing... They do the relative path thing in a few places

Hi again,

Now I realized the problem. For the cpp build to generate the source, it is
required to have 'specs'. So, taking a checkout from [1], instead of [2]
should help. Also, if you already have a checkout from [1] and the issue
exists, it should have got something to do with an improper checkout.

[2] http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/qpid/trunk/qpid/cpp

Hi all,

I ran to the same issue today. What I did was,

1. remove the cpp directory
2. obtain a new checkout of the cpp directory (I got revision 651531)
3. ./bootstrap; ./configure; make

This will lead to the build failure pointed out by Danushka

Hi all,
  I get a build error when I try to compile a repository working copy.
The build fails when it is trying to compile
generate_MaxMethodBodySize_h.cpp which is supposed to reside inside the gen
directory. I can not find any generated code inside gen directory. I ran the
generate.sh manually but had no luck. Am I doing something wrong here or
what?. I went through the docs, but could not find any hint.

 I'm guessing this is a VPATH build? Andrew Stitcher discovered
yesterday that VPATH builds are broken in the way you describe. You can do
an in-tree build until this get fixed, or if you're an automake whiz it
would be most helpful if you could take a look yourself. I was a bit of an
automake-dummy when we started getting this build system together and the
code generation parts in particular still suck a little.

Actually I have the VPATH build working ok for many purposes. What is
broken AFAICT in VPATH build:

make checkbuild
make rpmbuild

Incidentally make rpmbuild is actually wrong in the in tree build as
well in that it doesn't run the system tests (the python/federation
test) as it can't find the python directory.

Danushka - I'd guess that you need to start with a sufficiently clean
tree (for some value of sufficiently)


Danushka - let us know if you dont get the build working (and let us know
what the problem was if you do.) I don't want people to be put of
contributing by such basic stumbling blocks.
