Error while building/compiling the code [BEGGINER]


Recommended Posts

Hello guys!

Im planning to start contributing to 0AD dev.

I've got an error while compiling the code:

Quote

Absolute path contains whitespace, which will break the build - move the game to a path without spaces

I'm following the guide, but can't find solution for this problem. PLs help :)

As the error said, you can’t have spaces in paths to the code.

So, easiest fix would be to just remove the spaces.

“~/co de/ba se” should become “~/code/ba_se” or something else with no spaces.

Hmm, maybe the script shouldn’t reject it. Could properly escape the whitespaces. However, it really isn’t good practice to have spaces too.

If we fix it for one platform it wouldn't work for another I guess. A good rule of thumb for programming is avoiding spaces as much as possible :) Only dealing with for stuff like user input.
