Terminal: Precomp.cpp and Nuget errors

[lazerl0rd]

• Your Windows build number: 18890.1000

• What you're doing and what's happening: Opening solution then building the following as Debug x64:
  

• What's wrong / what should be happening instead:

When loading:

This project references NuGet package(s) that are missing on this computer. Use NuGet Package Restore to download them.  For more information, see http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=322105. The missing file is ..\..\..\packages\Microsoft.UI.Xaml.2.1.190405001-prerelease\build\native\Microsoft.UI.Xaml.targets.  CascadiaPackage F:\Users\seacr\source\repos\Terminal\src\cascadia\CascadiaPackage\CascadiaPackage.wapproj   120

When building: Repetitions of differenet versions of fatal error C1083: Cannot open source file: '..\precomp.cpp': No such file or directory (basically lots of errors referring to precomp.cpp missing).

When running .\tools\razzle.cmd:

PM> .\tools\razzle.cmd
Could not find MsBuild on your machine. It may be installed somewhere else.

That's pretty strange. If you right-click the solution inside Visual Studio and choose "Restore missing packages...", does it do anything?

We're tracking build issues like this in the build megathread at #489.

@DHowett-MSFT, in the end, I just used the included nugen.exe directly to restore packages, but that precomp.cpp spam is still there:

same NuGet error:

@DavidShield use included nugen.exe to restore and that'll go.

The folder 'E:WorkspaceVisual Studio 2019Visual Studio ProjectsTerminaldepnuget' does not contain an msbuild solution or packages.config file to restore.

I get that same error AFTER restoring packages from the command line:

The missing file is ......packagesMicrosoft.UI.Xaml.2.1.190405001-prereleasebuildnativeMicrosoft.UI.Xaml.targets. CascadiaPackage (loading...) C:devTerminalsrccascadiaCascadiaPackageCascadiaPackage.wapproj 123

:(

Of course, RIGHT after I posted that, I saw that it was because it defaulted to targeting ARM64 by default.

Switch to"x64" and it should build

[songjiang951130]

you need find and add MSBuild.exe to system value
such as

MSBUILD
C:WindowsMicrosoft.NETFrameworkv4.0.30319MSBuild.exe

restart vs code

[miniksa]

Looks like this sorted itself out. Resolving.

[lazerl0rd]

@miniksa my build problem hadn’t been fully resolved. Only one section of it was. I still get the precmp failures.

@songjiang951130 if you mean add to Env? It’s already there. And I’m using VS 2019 not VS Code.
