I am using nmake to compile a makefile.msc file
I have to include the below directories
c:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.1\Include\um
C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.1\Include\shared
C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.1\Include\winrt
in the /I atrribute of the RCFLAGS
What I have tried are below :
1st try:
RCFLAGS = /I "c:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.1\Include\um" /I "C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.1\Include\shared" /I "C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.1\Include\winrt"
2nd try:
RCPATH = "'c:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.1\Include\um':'C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.1\Include\shared':'C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.1\Include\winrt'"
RCFLAGS = /I $(RCPATH)
Everytime, RC complaints about different missing headers.
Please give a guideline on how to achieve what I am trying to do.
Many thanks in advance.
Edit : Many resources elaborate how to do this with CFLAGS but are
not specific about RCFLAGS. Moreover, there is little help if I do
a rc /?.
Finally resolved it by the below format :
-I "c:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.1\Include\shared" -I "c:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.1\Include\winrt" -I "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\VC\include"
Sounds silly though since the delimiter / is accepted for the first RCFLAGS attribute which is /dWIN32.

I have a simple batch file foo.bat:
#ECHO OFF
setlocal
echo %PATH%
WHERE /Q wsl.exe
if %ERRORLEVEL%% NEQ 0 (
echo No find wsl.exe %ERRORLEVEL%
exit /B
)
When I just run it in cmd or explicitly with cmd.exe /C foo.bat I have no problems. But if I put it into a nmake.exe Makefile:
all:
call foo.bat
.PHONY : all
and call it with nmake.exe /f Makefile all it will fail:

No find wsl.exe 1
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'call' : return code '0x1'
When I diff the output of the working script and the failing nmake run I get
1,5d0
<
< Microsoft (R) Program Maintenance Utility Version 14.30.30709.0

< NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'call' : return code '0x1'
< Stop.
So the PATH is identical. Once it finds "wsl.exe" in PATH and once it doesn't ? I have no clue here...
i want to use
where /r C:\Program Files (x86)\ used.cs
but it says i can't use them! how can i use the program files x86 without that error!
please help fast
You forgot to quote your path, otherwise where can't know that Files or (x86) is part of the path and used.cs is not!
where /r "C:\Program Files (x86)" used.cs
I have a List of String separated by a space and enclosed in double quotes.

I need to write a batch file to complete a pre-build step in Visual Studio. As part of it, I need to call the Visual Studio Developer Command Prompt.
I know that for VS2015, the developer command prompt is located in C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\Common7\Tools\VsDevCmd.bat.
Unfortunately, our build server has a different version of VS. Is there a simple way to find the latest VSDevCmd.bat for all (or most) versions of Visual Studio in a batch file, so the pre-build step will work on both environments?
You should use vswhere provided by the Microsoft Visual Studio Installer. You copy vswhere.exe to a known location. The wiki has a description on how to start the developer command prompt:
#if not defined _echo echo off
for /f "usebackq delims=" %%i in (`vswhere.exe -prerelease -latest -property installationPath`) do (
if exist "%%i\Common7\Tools\vsdevcmd.bat" (
%comspec% /k "%%i\Common7\Tools\vsdevcmd.bat" %*
exit /b
)
)
rem Instance or command prompt not found
exit /b 2
The thing that I do for CI-CD machines is use vcvarsall for non 2017 machines and vsdevcmd for 2017 ones. Script snippet below:
rem vsvarsall.bat does not work if there are quoted paths on %PATH%
set path=%path:"=%
rem this will work for non VS 2017 build machines
if exist "c:\progra~2\Micros~1.0\vc\vcvarsall.bat" (
call c:\progra~2\Micros~1.0\vc\vcvarsall.bat && goto :SetVSEnvFinished
)
echo vcvarsall.bat not found, looking for vsdevcmd.bat
rem Find and run vsdevcmd.bat
set "VS_PATH=C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017"
rem The 2017 folder will not be present in Visual Studio 2017 Preview machines (such as 15.8 preview)
if not exist "%VS_PATH%" (
set "VS_PATH=C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio"
)
if not exist "%VS_PATH%" (
echo "%VS_PATH%" not found. Is Visual Studio installed? && goto :ErrorExit
)
for /f "delims=" %%F in ('dir /b /s "%VS_PATH%\vsdevcmd.bat" 2^>nul') do set VSDEVCMD_PATH=%%F
echo ********Executing %VSDEVCMD_PATH%********
call "%VSDEVCMD_PATH%"
goto :SetVSEnvFinished
:ErrorExit
exit /b 1
:SetVSEnvFinished
So for non 2017 ones, it will execute vcvarsall.bat (which sets up the VS environment). For 2017 versions, it will search for vsdevcmd.bat (in specific folder to reduce search time) and run it.
Hope this helps.
I've managed to cobble together a batch file that looks at parameters, then at the filesystem to try to figure out what version of VSDevCmd should be used. $(DevEnvDir) is sometimes *Undefined*, so we need to check for that too.
Tested on VS2015 Professional, VS2017 Professional, and VS2017 Enterprise.

Can anybody help why is it displaying same values twice? And is there side effects of this?
P.S: I have created a local Path variable as
%Path%F:\Java\jdk1.6.0_38\bin\
Sometime between WindosXP and Windows7 the interpretation of the user level PATH variable changed. Now it automatically appends the path to the system defined path rather than replacing it the way it previously did.
Thus your local path ends up being %PATH%;%PATH%;F:\Java\jdk1.6.0_36\bin
The good news is it works -- you find the desired files. The bad news is it takes slighly longer to find your java bin files.
Edit: The annoying news is that you can no longer override system defined commands. Defining user level PATH as mybin;%PATH% does not produce the desired results.
If you're doing this in the console you can create a batch script with the following content:
for /F "tokens=2* delims= " %%f IN ('reg query "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment" /v Path ^| findstr /i path') do set OLD_SYSTEM_PATH=%%g
reg add "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment" /v Path /t REG_SZ /d "%OLD_SYSTEM_PATH%;F:\Java\jdk1.6.0_36\bin"
Which basically takes the Path value from the registry and add your path to it. Note that also there is a limit of around 1024 characters in the Path length if you set it in the console with the Set command, and this code workaround this limit.
