No mmp or extension make files found in bld.inf

[anothertest]

When I import a project into Carbide using the bld.inf file, I receive the following error:


Note: No mmp or extension make files were found in the bld.inf file.



I have tried loading bld.inf files for different components, but this did not change the error.

Carbide version: Carbide.c++ Version 2.3.0, Build v200911050858_60
OS: Windows XP, Service pack 2


Has anyone seen this before, or can anyone recommend a solution?

Thanks.

what is the content of your bld.inf file..can you please show that?

[anothertest]

#include <domain/osextensions/platform_paths.hrh>
#include "../../../../../exports/Browser_platform_variant.hrh"

PRJ_PLATFORMS
DEFAULT 

PRJ_EXPORTS
../../loc/Webkit.loc                MW_LAYER_LOC_EXPORT_PATH(Webkit.loc)
../../rom/webkit.iby                CORE_MW_LAYER_IBY_EXPORT_PATH(webkit.iby)
../../rom/webkitResources.iby       LANGUAGE_MW_LAYER_IBY_EXPORT_PATH(webkitResources.iby)

#ifdef __SERIES60_32__

PRJ_MMPFILES
gnumakefile ../sdkinc.mk
gnumakefile ../icons.mk

webkit.mmp

#else

PRJ_EXTENSIONS
START EXTENSION s60/mifconv
OPTION TARGETFILE webkiticons.mif
OPTION HEADERFILE webkiticons.mbg
OPTION SOURCEFILE iconlist.txt
END

PRJ_MMPFILES

webkit.mmp

#endif

I did not create this file, it is the bld.inf for s60 WebKit.

Your paths seem a little suspicious, maybe something like this is what you want to write for each bld.inf?

#include ".\libxml2\bld.inf"

or something similar..Make sure that paths are right.

If still the error persists, then the next info required would be contents of the 'child' inf files.

[anothertest]

The MMP is identical to the MMP file listed on the Symbian Foundation's cross-referencer. If you have a Symbian Foundation developer account, you can login and navigate to http://developer.symbian.org/xref/os...kit/bld.inf#34. I would be surprised if the paths are wrong, surely everyone using Symbian Foundation s60 WebKit component would have experienced the same problem?

// Edited

I have changed the contents of the bld.inf in the previous post to a different bld.inf, since it is also listed on the Symbian Foundation's cross referencer. However I have attempted to load the bld.inf using Carbide and experienced the same problem.

Works without an account to see that page..but when asking question, its better to provide details rather than expecting the person helping do some extra logins ext.

Anyway, what i meant was, is the relative paths ok? And if so..that what contains in the 'child' inf files (do I sound repetitive? )

[anothertest]

I checked the following includes and the all exist in the correct location:

#include "../../../../../exports/Browser_platform_variant.hrh"

../../loc/Webkit.loc
../../rom/webkit.iby
../../rom/webkitResources.iby

gnumakefile ../sdkinc.mk
gnumakefile ../icons.mk

The only mmp file in the bld.inf is webkit.mmp which has the following contents:

I have checked the include

#include "../common.mmpi"

and it exists in the correct location.

This error does not occur in Carbide 2.0 9. I've tested it with the same bld.inf files.

For problems importing/building Symbian^3 packages it is best to discuss the issues at http://developer.symbian.org where other developers interested in product/platform development are active and they may have seen this type of problems already.

Forum Nokia Discussion Board is populated by 3rd party application developers, with focus on the public SDK and its offerings, and obviously the type of problems they are facing are different.

[anothertest]

But the problem seems to be with Carbide, not the package or code. The title of this forum is "Carbide.c++ IDE and plug-ins". Have I misunderstood something?

[ltomuta]

I'm just suggesting that if there is anything to be discussed about (like a workaround), the knowledge would be where other platform developers are talking about, i.e. at the site which hosts platform development.

If you are facing a real Carbide.c++ bug, then there's nothing to talk about really, instead you should create a bug report in Carbide's Bugzilla (or in SF's Bugzilla) and then work with the team to have it sorted out.

Btw, are you using the PDT or the ADT? The PDT & PDK configuration may in fact help with importing a package's source code, while an ADT & SDK combo would not be suitable for the same.

Actually the above suggestion, I have been using in almost all my everyday life project and there has never ever been a problem. So I can safely say that its not the IDE problem and thats the reason I was all the time asking questions hinting to wrong paths (relative or absolute) issue.

[anothertest]

Yes, always worth trying different options, I agree. I answered your questions about include files a few posts ago

[anothertest]

Just to be clear, I have not modified the MMP or bld.inf file in any way. The same bld.inf loads correctly in Carbide 2.0.
