Missing Zipios++ when building in new output directory

Post by falviani »

Hi All,

I did a pull this morning and created a new output directory. After setting the VS version to use and LIbPack directory, the build fails with this error:

Code: Select all

[E57] Revison ID: E57Format-2.2.1-AMD64_64-windows
[E57] Building static library
CMake Error at src/Base/CMakeLists.txt:368 (message):
  Using external zipios++ was specified but was not found.

even though using external zipios++ was NOT specified. This does not happen in the output directory I've been using for a while - VS2022 builds successfully. Does anybody have a clue what is causing this, and how I can fix it?

Thanks in advance,
Frank Alviani

I started fresh - new directories, clone the github master, etc. - and all the problems went away (except for a NumPy issue with the Path workbench).
