Problem at package cura windows release

[Cyndent 0]

I download from https://github.com/daid/Cura

and use gitbash run package.sh

It begin to download something and some PATH wrong,and i make it correct.

But when it begin to build cura engine,i get info:

Extracting comtypes-0.6.2.win32.exe
Extracting ejectmedia.zip Win32
make: Entering directory `D:/cura-development/Cura-SteamEngine/CuraEngine'
make: Leaving directory `D:/cura-development/Cura-SteamEngine/CuraEngine'
make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.

I cannot find this info from package.sh .It only echo "Failed to build CuraEngine".

I don't know what to do. Can somebody help me?

Hi and welcome to the forum.

What do you want to do? If you want to build the Cura tool for Windows (the frontend / gui for slicing), you need this repo:

https://github.com/Ultimaker/Cura

If you want to build the CuraEngine - that's the standalone slicer that can be invoked from the command line, you need this repo:

https://github.com/Ultimaker/CuraEngine

Thanks for reply.

I'm trying to change the gui and add some function.I use daid's version,and it cannot finish building the Engine. The new one you mentioned need Microsoft Visual C++. I'm not familiar with it. I will try this one after finishing downloading...

I try to use daid's version again because the new one need Microsoft VC 2015 .It's too big.

I run package.sh on gitbash. And it show :

 

make: Entering directory `D:/cura-development/Cura-SteamEngine/CuraEngine'make: Leaving directory `D:/cura-development/Cura-SteamEngine/CuraEngine'make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.

 

And in package.sh,it stop at:

 

$MAKE -C CuraEngine VERSION=${BUILD_NAME} OS=Windows_NT CXX=${CXX}

 

And I check some old version package.sh. It's

 

mingw32-make -C CuraEngine VERSION=${BUILD_NAME}

 

Then I turn to build engine.But I'm confused about the command

 

$cmake ..

 

Should I type some info instead ".."?

This command can build some cmake folder,but type command "$make" show the same wrong info.

Sadly I don't have experience with building stuff on Windows. Maybe someone else could pitch in and help.
