[mapguide-users] reference to directory C:\build_tux_area\mgdev\common\service\data\namedCollection.cpp

[Walt Welton-Lair]

Also, this isn't a MapGuide specific thing.  I've seen build paths in Microsoft code as well.

	Michael,

	 

	In the MapGuide code we use the __FILE__ macro which at compile time inserts the full filename everywhere it is added to the source code. In the case of most users seeing C:build_tux\... in the message it is because that is the location where the machine compiled and built the installed version. This information is very valuable because it tells the developers exactly where the problem occurred and in exactly what file. From the filename given in the message the C:\build_tux part can be ignored and the important part is the rest as it maps to the build tree in subversion.

	 

	Hope this helps,

	Bruce

	Hello fellow users et al,

	 

	 

	I have seen other posts in regard to errors/content etc on C:\build_tux , I gather that no one actually has this physical location on their installed setup.

	 

	Can anyone explain the theory and use of these type of messages when something goes wrong with our program development?

	 

	 

	Thanks for any help offered.

	 

	 

	Michael Pond, P.Geo.
