Creating the Babylon.js declaration file from Typescript

Question

BabylonJS provides a gulp task to create their definition file, but right now it's resulting in an error reported here:

https://github.com/BabylonJS/Babylon.js/issues/221

"Command is too long"

Does anyone know what this error means? And if so, is there a way to fix it? Or failing that, is there a working declaration file out there somewhere?

Answer 1

I found the answer to this, should it affect anyone else.

The path name is too long in most user's folder structure, eg. C:/users/me/documents/work/babylon

I cloned the repo into C:/b/ and ran the build tool:

gulp typescript

This successfully created the babylon.d.ts file in the Gulp folder.
