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

[Bruce Dechant]

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.
