<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Hi Hugh,<br>
<br>
I think i can say some words concerning this topic as we are
running 4 buildslaves here all running on windows, all using
visual studio to build our software for x86 and x64 architectures
for a couple of years now<br>
<br>
It took me a while to get everything set up (plus every now and
then the buildslaves still misbehave but usually kicking them a
few times gets them back in track). I can assure you that running
vcvarsall.bat works because we need it in various steps during our
builds and once i got it right, this is the smallest problem i
encountered in conjunction with windows buildslaves! Most problems
i see is with the inability of MS to properly clean up their
operating systems (in the week before easter my buildslaves
started to act up again and as usual the hdd's were completely
full, running Disk Cleanup helped a little but still was not
enough but when i ran ccleaner it freed
190GB(!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) of trash in the
temp-directory under c:\windows (go figure...). <br>
<br>
So for your information here is one of our buildsteps using
vcvarsall.bat:<br>
<br>
buildFactory.addStep(ShellCommand(name="nmake (release)",
command=["call", "c:\\program files (x86)\\microsoft visual studio
10.0\\vc\\vcvarsall.bat", WithProperties("%s","arch"),
"&&", "nmake", "nightly"],<br>
workdir="build\\..\\installer",haltOnFailure=True))<br>
<br>
If you need further assistance just shout maybe i can help out...<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
<br>
Christoph<br>

<p>Hi Buildbot team,<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>My current Buildbot 0.8.7p1 that I have running has Windows
build slaves that build with Visual studio. To set them up I
had to painstakingly copy across the environment variables as I
could never get the vcvarsall.bat to run and setup the
environment correctly for the build. <br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>My question is has anything changed for setting up windows
slaves in 1.1.0?<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I also now require that I run the intel environment setup
script as well so it is not just for visual studio.<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Cheers,<br>
</p>
