Drasil: GlassBR - References not showing up in SRS

[samm82]

The Reference section in GlassBR_SRS is empty - the header is there and it is in the table of contents, but there are no references displayed. (I'll add a picture later.)

[szymczdm]

Is this on a particular branch? On master the references are still showing up.

[samm82]

I think I need to re-evaluate how I change branches/run make/do something - I tried it on master. I just quick made this issue so I didn't forget - I'll look into it in detail later and keep you posted.

[szymczdm]

Alright. I just confirmed my build on master has references on both the GlassBR HTML and TeX versions (and of course the TeX is showing only those refs that are actually in use currently).

[samm82]

Yup. References are being built. 😩 Ever since I switched to command prompt for running make instead of MinGW, I seem to be having issues like these - any ideas?

[JacquesCarette]

Do you mean you are using a cygwin shell? Or some other shell? The details are likely to matter.

[samm82]

I was using MinGW, but now I use the command prompt. I honestly don't know much more above that.

[JacquesCarette]

The DOS command prompt 'cmd' ? How do you start it?

[samm82]

Yes, 'cmd'. I start it by just searching for 'cmd' in start

[samm82]

Do I have to do anything when I switch branches when using cmd?

[szymczdm]

You shouldn't have to. I use cmd as well, but I've got my PATH setup to include the appropriate git, minGW, and msys binaries (so I can use commands like git, ls, and make). To my recollection you've done the same.

[samm82]

So I'm not sure if I've done that/how to find out if I've done that

[JacquesCarette]

Right - @szymczdm can help. I haven't used 'cmd' in years [I've switched to cygwin long ago].

[szymczdm]

@samm82 check your system environment variables (if you're on win10, just open the start menu and type "environment variables" and something should come up. On win7 you need to go through Control Panel -> System Properties -> Advanced -> Environment Variables). If you check the variable called PATH it should have (somewhere in it) your msys directory (ex. C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\bin). It should also have your git directory.

[samm82]

I added my msys directory, and this was already there: C:\Program Files\Git\cmd - I'm assuming that's my git directory? Also, do I need to restart for changes to apply?

[szymczdm]

You need to restart cmd (so close and re-open). Also, did you apply the registry key from #482 ? If not, you might need to since that will ensure the chcp 65001 command is run every time cmd starts.

[samm82]

Ok, I will, and yes I did.

[szymczdm]

If you're still having issues, you also might want to try updating git,

[samm82]

Thanks! It seems to be working now
