re-cmake open source release

[pongasoft]

I released re-cmake 1.5.0 this morning with support for RE Edit. What it means is that you can simply type

./re.sh edit

and it will start RE Edit with your plugin so that you can edit it in a WYSIWYG editor (note that you must install RE Edit separately)

If you generate a new plugin with re-quickstart, the new command comes with it

Hi Yan, I am having trouble getting re-cmake working.
I have downloaded the re-blank-plugin project, I am using Windows 10 and MS VS 2022.
When I run
python configure.py -p "C:\Users\murf\Projects\Reason\SDK"

I get:
-- Fetching re-cmake from https://github.com/pongasoft/re-cmake/a ... v1.5.0.zip
CMake Error: Error: generator : Visual Studio 17 2022
Does not match the generator used previously: Visual Studio 16 2019
Either remove the CMakeCache.txt file and CMakeFiles directory or choose a different binary directory.

If I remove CMakeCache.txt i get this:
CMake Error: The source directory "C:/Users/murf/Projects/Reason/MyReasonDev/ReasonProjects/MISC/re-blank-plugin" does not appear to contain CMakeLists.txt.
Specify --help for usage, or press the help button on the CMake GUI.

Seems to be a bit of a catch 22 situation!

Any suggestions welcome.

thanks,
Murf.

Solved! I just deleted the "build" folder.

Yes. With CMake, it is always safer to delete the build folder or run configure.py with the -f option which deletes the build folder...

Thanks Yan.

What version of Visual Studio do you use? (or are you a Mac person?)

I could not get re-cmake working with 2019, as the cmake was too old. (3.20)
I upgraded to 2022 and then nothing worked, including my normal build environment!

I am back down at 2019 now, and was wondering about the best way to bump up cmake to the minimum required (3.24?) ?

[Murf]

Hmm now it is working with cmake v3.20 so all good!!!
Thanks again Yan for an awesome tool!

Yes I am a mac person but I do test it on Windows as well: I have tested it with Visual Studio Code (not Visual Studio) or directly the command line, but of course with the Visual Studio build tools 2019. I also install CMake separately (from the https://cmake.org/download/ page).

I don't see why Visual Studio build tools 2022 would not work, but I can give it a try...

Looks like an amazing tool, I'm inclined to try it, but I'm not that good with programming, especially dsp stuff... I'd rather leave it to the pros, I'll give ut a try sometime though
