Thanks for your follow-up. This is a known limitation that we have worked to resolve but ran into some unknown/unexpected errors. We definitely want to support both traditional and simplified character sets (as well as any other character sets), but if I recall there were some ambiguous OS mechanisms at work.

We would appreciate any help or contributions to get these character sets supported, but I understand if you don’t have the time.

I thought we already had an issue open to track it, but I couldn’t find it so I created a new one here:
Support non-ASCII character sets in Stuart tools · Issue #267 · tianocore/edk2-pytool-extensions (github.com)<https://github.com/tianocore/edk2-pytool-extensions/issues/267>

We can mark it as a duplicate if I find the original report.

Hi, everyone

I have found the root cause of failure, it's because the language in my windows is Chinese, and the software not support Unicode will use gbk as the coding format.
After I change the language, the problem is solved.

Thanks

In the workspace/build folder there should be some logs .
Can you look at those and/or send the CI Log?

Thanks

Hello, everyone

I want to build unit test locally, my environment is win10, python 3.9.6, VS2019.
I excute the command according to steps in the ReadMe.
1. stuart_setup -c ./.pytool/CISettings.py TOOL_CHAIN_TAG=VS2019
2. stuart_update -c ./.pytool/CISettings.py TOOL_CHAIN_TAG=VS2019
3. stuart_ci_build -c ./.pytool/CISettings.py TOOL_CHAIN_TAG=VS2019 -t NOOPT -p MdePkg

In step 3, the log is just stopped at "Running Build NOOPT", how do I know the cause of the build failure ?
