Node-gyp: build the hello world demo failed on win10 creator

[yunnysunny]

I use ms build 2015 on win10 , and last month I update my win10 to creator version, but today I came cross a inexplicable problem, node-gyp build the hello world demo supplied by official docs with errors. node-gyp had build everything successfully before, I don't know weather the update to win10 creator lead the problem.

E:\kuaipan\code\node2\myapp\chapter10\hello>node-gyp build
gyp info it worked if it ends with ok
gyp info using [email protected]
gyp info using [email protected] | win32 | x64
gyp info spawn msbuild
gyp info spawn args [ 'build/binding.sln',
gyp info spawn args   '/clp:Verbosity=minimal',
gyp info spawn args   '/nologo',
gyp info spawn args   '/p:Configuration=Release;Platform=x64' ]

You should update your copy of node-gyp but that aside, the error messages suggest the compiler does not understand C++11. Probably means it's not using the version of msbuild you think it is.

[refack]

Probably means it's not using the version of msbuild you think it is.

You could try setting set GYP_MSVS_VERSION=2015 before node-gyp build AFAIK it will fail is it can't find your VS2015

[yunnysunny]

Firstly I have installed ms build 2015:
.
Second, I have tried run node-gyp build in VS2015 x64 Native Tools Command Prompt and VS2015 x86 Native Tools Command Prompt, it both led to the same error I have mentioned before.
Third, I have run npm config set msvs_version 2015 before running node-gyp build.

[bnoordhuis]

Okay, but the point remains that those errors are C++11 related. Do you have an older version of Visual Studio installed, say 2010 or 2012?

[yunnysunny]

Yes , I have vs2015 and vs2012 installed.
Do I need to uninstall vs2012 from my pc?

[refack]

Yes , I have vs2015 and vs2012 installed.
Do I need to uninstall vs2012 from my pc?

@yunnysunny did you try @bnoordhuis's suggestion to update node-gyp to v3.6.1? The log says you have
gyp ERR! node-gyp -v v3.4.0

Also might be helpful is if you run with --verbose: node-gyp build --verbose or npm i --verbose. It will show which MSBuild is triggered.

I think the only way left to me is uninstalling ms build 2015 and installing the latest version.

[refack]

You see the D:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\VC\bin\x86_amd64\CL.exe 11.0 == Visual Studio 2012.

I think you either have something in your npm config (check with npm config list) or in the environment (check with set) or in the binding.gyp ('msvs_version': 2012) that makes node-gyp pick 2012 over 2015

Also could you run node -e "console.log(process.platform)" and confirm it prints win32

[yunnysunny]

{lamb} npm config list
; cli configs
user-agent = "npm/3.10.9 node/v6.9.2 win32 x64"

; userconfig C:\Users\sunny\.npmrc
cache = "D:\\Program Files\\nodejs\\node_modules\\npm-cache"
email = "[email protected]"
msvs_version = "2015"
prefix = "D:\\Program Files\\nodejs"
strict-ssl = false

; node bin location = d:\Program Files\nodejs\node.exe
; cwd = C:\Users\sunny
; HOME = C:\Users\sunny
; "npm config ls -l" to show all defaults.

output of npm config list

node -e "console.log(process.platform)" print win32

{
  "targets": [
    {
      "target_name": "addon",
      "sources": [ "hello.cc" ]
    }
  ]
}

The content of binding.gyp

[refack]

@yunnysunny those two seems fine... So I'm thinking of two things

1. try to setup a "VS Developer Console" (just run "%VS140COMNTOOLS%VsDevCmd.bat") before calling node-gyp
2. If that doesn't work, then maybe there's something with the UI Language that confuses node-gyp...

[yunnysunny]

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC>"%VS140COMNTOOLS%VsDevCmd.bat"
'"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\Common7\Tools\VsDevCmd.bat"' 不是内部或外部命令，也不是可运行的程序或批处理文件。

VsDevCmd.bat is not included in my msbuild.

[refack]

Do you have "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VCvcvarsall.bat"?

[yunnysunny]

Yes, I have.

[yunnysunny]

error output of node-gyp rebuild --verbose
I found that the build project generated in the folder of build is named addon.vcproj , which should been created by Visual Studio, but Visual Studio is not installed in my pc, finally, it resulted in the error "loading VCBuild.exe (which supplied by Visual Studio) failed".
I had tried many method to solve it but failed. At last I ran node-gyp rebuild --msvs_version=2015, a miracle happened, everything worked OK. And the project file in build folder has the name of addon.vcxproj now.
I tried to run npm config set msvs_version 2015 --global, but after ran it , I found it helpless.

[bnoordhuis]

npm config ... only works when node-gyp is invoked by npm, not when you run node-gyp directly.

Happy to hear it's working now, I'll close this out.

Two comments for posterity:

1. Regarding environment/config settings: we documented their behaviour https://github.com/nodejs/node-gyp#configuration
2. Regarding addon.vcproj vs addon.vcxproj: If GYP decided you have an old MSVS version (<= 2008) it will create .vcproj files - https://github.com/nodejs/node-gyp/blob/master/gyp/pylib/gyp/MSVSVersion.py#L295

[yunnysunny]

I read the code of MSVSVersion.py , it seemed that node-gyp get the version of VS via reading the Windows's regedit. And I found HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio\14.0, in other words, its version is 2015.

    keys = [r'HKLM\Software\Microsoft\VisualStudio\%s' % version,
            r'HKLM\Software\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\VisualStudio\%s' % version,
            r'HKLM\Software\Microsoft\VCExpress\%s' % version,
            r'HKLM\Software\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\VCExpress\%s' % version]

Though I am not familiar with regedit, I have question why the key's name start with HKLM, which does not exist in my PC.
Now I ran npm i buffertools, it worked correctly. I don't know why and what happened. It should only work successfully with --msvs_version=2015 before.

1. HKLM is short for HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, so it's Ok.
2. GYP has _some_ auto detection capabilities. It usually _can_ detect VS2015 (as you said, by reading the registry)
3. --msvs_version=2015 is recommended just in case (if GYP fails or if VS2017 is installed)
4. In case of VS2017 we "lie" to GYP and force it to use VS2017 - https://github.com/nodejs/node-gyp/blob/master/lib/configure.js#L152

[yunnysunny]

I found that when using node-gyp rebuild directly, the problem would occur still. But it worked OK after running npm install.
Why not node-gyp supply a common solution to make node-gyp detect the version of VS correctly?

[bnoordhuis]

It does. The issue here was that you overrode it through npm. If you run node-gyp directly, either pass --msvs_version=... on the command line or set npm_config_msvs_version=... in the environment (that is how node-gyp receives the option from npm.)

node-gyp's auto-detection usually does the right thing. It's only when you have multiple compilers installed (as was the case here) that it may pick the wrong one.

[yunnysunny]

@bnoordhuis In fact , I uninstalled the VS 2012, and only vs 2015 is installed in my pc now. But it can not detect the vs version correctly.

[yunnysunny]

@refack I modify the python code which check the VS version, and print some log to find the result of the checking.

def _DetectVisualStudioVersions(versions_to_check, force_express):
  """Collect the list of installed visual studio versions.
