Debug build fails

[elecman]

The btool build fails if this is added to the flags section in build.xml:
-g
-O0

Just -g will fail as well.

Error message:
--- i18n / msgfmt
Make error line 422: executeCommand : could not create process : the system cannot find the file specified.
Make error line 422: <msgfmt> problem:

Could you please attach your modified build.xml file?

I think instead you should replace "-O2" in build.xml with "-g -O0" flags to get what you want. You want those flags during compilation; the linker does nothing with -g and -O2 is only a compile-time flag, I believe.

(the error message is confusing to me too)

Setting -g and -O0 in the "T A R G E T : C O M P I L E" flags section produces the same error.

Interesting it can't be reproduced on WinXP though.

Johan, did you manage to reproduce this?

I figured out what the problem was. I had to run mingwenv.bat first.

You can close this bug as invalid. A more informative error message would be useful though.
