Eos: [1.2.1] ABI generation with "core_symbol.hpp"

[Lucklyric]

eosiocpp -g XXXX.abi XXXX.hpp results fatal error: 'eosiolib/core_symbol.hpp' file not found.

Becauseeosio.wasmsdk does not support abi-generation yet, if you also got above issue, there is one trick I am using seems to be working for me.

1. build and install eosio.wasmsdk
2. Add -I${EOSIO_WASMSDK_INSTALL_DIR}/include/ in function generate_abi in file https://github.com/Lucklyric/eos/blob/master/tools/eosiocpp.in

You an define and check your EOSIO_WASMSDK_INSTALL_DIR at the beginning.

@86chenjie @Dylan-Phoon
I just did a test:

1. Remove eosio.wasmsdkinclude path (in may case it is "/usr/local/eosio.wasmsdk/include") from generate_abi
2. ./eosio_build.sh then sudo ./eosio_install.sh
3. eosiocpp -g got error.
4. Add includ path back
5. ./eosio_build.sh then sudo ./eosio_install.sh
6. eosiocpp -g back to work.

You can check the file diff here commit

Don't forget to rebuild and reinstall the eos after the modification.
Hope it will help.

I am getting the same error ,I am using ubuntu 16.04 and don't find any eosio.wasmsdk file in my system , what should i do ?

@nirdesh365 , you have to clone it from a separate repository at eosio.wasmsdk. Follow its readme to build and install it then you can try the above method. Good luck.
