Title: @Dev Team member : Revision.h
Post by: Anon21 on July 13, 2011, 05:08:38 AM

Hi there. I'd like to add 'revision.h' to the SVN repository with the following content.

Code: [Select]

// Required for project to compile. Presumably should be updated with each revision.

#define svn_revision 636
It, or something like it, is needed for the project to compile.

It should be created automatically by the compile process (in Visual Studio or compiling from Linux). The file is not included because it changes with every SVN revision.

It wasn't. I think the reason is probably because I had to disable the pre-build command. It would always fail to compile while giving the error that it wasn't a 'working copy'.

And you have TortoiseSVN installed, and are using the BrothelMaster.vcxproj project file?

Edit: and have left the .svn folders and such intact, so the SVN revision can be determined?

Let's see ...

Do have TortoiseSVN installed

Am using 'BrothelMaster.sln' from the root directory (but that uses BrothelMaster.vcxproj, by the look of it)

I exported to get a clean copy before compiling, which I guess I shouldn't have? I don't really want all my tinkering all over the original version 635 though.

Did you figure this out? I seem to be having a similar problem even when trying to compile the original r635?

Exporting with TortoiseSVN gets rid of the .svn folders, so that's where your problem is. The pre-compile command needs those folders to be present so it can determine the SVN revision number and create Revision.h based on that.
