missing VCvars*.bat for some env

Rajnish_Chauhan · June 7, 2012, 10:06pm

Hello,
After installing VS2012 RC, I am missing following files.

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\VC\bin\amd64\vcvars64.bat
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\VC\bin\arm\vcvarsarm.bat

Do one have to choose some special setting during VS2012 RC install to
get these files?

Thanks,
–RC

I’ve never used VS2012, but in previously releases, there was usually an option(s) to specify which architectures you wanted to install tools/headers/libs for.

I have no idea of what the defaults are.

Pro,
Please look carefully.
You are also missing following two files.

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\VC\bin\amd64\vcvars64.bat
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\VC\bin\arm\vcvarsarm.bat

If you open “VS2012 x64 Native Tools Command Promt”. You will not be
able to run msbuild.

This doesn’t answer your question, but as a workaround (if you’re interested in one), have you tried running

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\VC\vcvarsall.bat" ?

I don’t image that that will work, given what you’re reporting below.

vcvarsx86_amd64.bat

Could that be the merged one?

mm1 · June 7, 2012, 11:10pm

Does VS2012 support native x64 build tools?

Maybe, like the WDK, it does not?

Admit, I’m not a build guy by any scale, so just to get this going ( due to customers requirements )…
Never, tried to muck around with the ddk/wdk build, since I’ve seen deep integration with visual studio 5 / 6 onward ( when everybody on this list would have kicked my rear end like world cup soccer tournament if I ever wanted to bring that up ). And then the ddkbuild.bat too which happens to have been a better approach than deep integration with the IDE. In the past, I used to be a make guy to get by my own projects ( hey that was 80s meaning regular expression => geeky stuff ).

History::
In the past, we use to build projects in the application space, then have a batch file that would kickoff vcvars.bat etc., then shoot out the project files one after another. So that was it. IDE never tried to pull in sdk type paths, IIRC, so if
we wanted to test under new sdk, we used to populate them using project properties. For masm projects it used to be makefile project. Also for other projects, export makefile or something IIRC.

Present:: That VS2012 IDE pulling sdk paths was bit of a nonsense ( or at least a surprise ).

But just when you throw that x64 up here, I went ahead and looked at the IDE ( FWIW ), under 64bit build those sdk paths are not there, it does have those vc style $(), and build goes fine. Not a problem. For 32bit, all the configurations are populated with sdk paths, though none of them shows up in my env variables ( i.e set >env.txt; grep -i sdk ). No sign of these.

RK:: Building of a templated driver, and converting one of the sample driver from win7 ddk were the warm up exercise, before delving into deeper …
