Fatal error when trying to write scons platform=windows generate_bindings=yes. Following gdnative cpp tutorial


I was following this tutorial on youtube, and on Github. When I run the command scons platform=windows generate_bindings=yes inside of gdtest/godot-cpp I get the following error. I have VS 2022.

C:\Users\Antonio>cd gdtest

C:\Users\Antonio\gdtest>cd godot-cpp

C:\Users\Antonio\gdtest\godot-cpp>scons platform=windows generate_bindings=yes
scons: Reading SConscript files ...

scons: *** Path for option target_path does not exist: demo/bin/
File "C:\Users\Antonio\gdtest\godot-cpp\SConstruct.py", line 26, in <module>

In my folder path I have:

C:\Users\Antonio\gdtest\demo\bin
C:\Users\Antonio\gdtest\godot-cpp
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC\bin
C:\Users\Antonio\gdtest
C:\msys64\mingw64\bin

This is my SConstruct file:

Solution

  • Its resolved, I add to the SConstruct file on Godot-cpp : opts.Add(PathVariable('target_path', 'The path where the lib is installed.', 'demo/bin/', PathVariable.PathAccept))
