Cannot clean (and therefore build) large projects in Carbide.c++ Express

[jas203]

Hi,

I downloaded Carbide.c++ Express and have tried to build a large existing project I have. It seems that it is unable to cope with the large command line for "del". I get

make -k clean all
del /s/q <<LOTS OF .o FILES HERE>>
The input line is too long.
make: [clean] Error 255 (ignored)
' '
'No tool found that can build the extension specified with the build arrtifact name all'
Build complete for project largeproject

There are about 72 .o object files passed in the command line, each with an average path/filename size of 35 characters.

I can build fine using the command line & codewarrior - this limitation seems to only be in Carbide.

Thanks.

Hi,

Yes, this is a problem with no workarounds at this time.

Thanks for letting me know. Any idea when it is going to be fixed?

The workaround is to build from the command-line and use the Symbian Executable Importer in Carbide to create a project for you. From there you can create a Launch Config and debug your application/sources. The build issue is a known core eclipse issue and we're looking to address it in the next release.

Cheers,
Tim

I don't understand exactly what you say. Could you give me the details of the process?

Thanks.
