Root in MSVC.NET

[karineklund]

Hello!

I am trying to use root in MSVC.NET following Axels instructions on his homepage. I have come to the point where I want to rebuild root in my ROOTmakefile. Here I run into truble. I get:

Creating temporary file “C:\DOCUME~1\ked\LOCALS~1\Temp\BAT000001.bat” with contents
[
@echo off
c:\root\buildroot.bat
if errorlevel 1 goto VCReportError
goto VCEnd
:VCReportError
echo Project : error PRJ0019: A tool returned an error code from “Performing Makefile project actions”
exit 1
:VCEnd
]
Creating command line “C:\DOCUME~1\ked\LOCALS~1\Temp\BAT000001.bat”
Output Window Performing Makefile project actions
‘¦@’ is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
ROOTmakefile : error PRJ0002 : error result returned from ‘c:\docume~1\ked\locals~1\temp\bat000001.bat’.
Results Build log was saved at “file://c:\Documents and Settings\ked\My Documents\Visual Studio Projects\ROOTmakefile\Debug\BuildLog.htm”
ROOTmakefile - 1 error(s), 0 warning(s)

hmm… I don’t even find this bat000001.bat file so I guess it was never created… What is it for? What is this character before @? In the log file it is written as ‘¦@’ and in the build output in MSVC.NET is is written as ‘■@’.

What could I have missed???

Best Regards,
Karin

Hi Karin,
could you attach your buildroot.bat (rename it to *.txt to attach it), or send it to Axel.Naumann@cern.ch?
Cheers, Axel.

Dear Axel,

I have sent you the file by e-mail now.
In my path variables I have c:\cygwin\bin and c:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\bin, should I have a variable called CYGWINROOT set to c:\cygwin also/instead?
