- short_path.exe:
- Built by the hoople bootstrapping process, but unfortunately this tool
- is desperately needed for windows builds to work nicely with clam and
- bash. It can be replaced by any newer working version from the bootstrap.
+ short_path.exe:
+ This tool is built by the code bootstrapping process (that is, by
+ scripts/generator/bootstrap_build.sh), but unfortunately it is
+ desperately needed for windows builds to work nicely with clam and
+ bash. If you don't have it, and your visual studio installation path
+ has spaces in it, then you may have trouble bootstrapping. You can
+ manually change your VC root variable to a short path version, as
+ reported by dir /x). This tool can be replaced by any newer working
+ version created by a bootstrap build.
+ zap_process.exe
+ A win32 tool that kills any process containing the name provided.
