I am also facing the same build error (GenFfs error) when I build EmulatorPkg in Windows Server 2016 with MS VS 2019. Then I tried the steps in the link below to build

Would it be helpful to perhaps delete all the files except the README, to make it more difficult to accidentally use? Or could the repo just be deleted? Especially since there's now an edk2-basetools

Please open new cmd, and cd Edk2, type edksetup.bat Rebuild again. System header files are searched from INCLUDE env. Please check this env value. Thanks Liming 发件人: Mohammad Younas

Liming, Still I am facing the same error even after installing SDK tools from MS VS 2019 installer. And also added the below path (which has assert.h) to PATH variable: C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows

How can i build libc and use for my edk2 project? Do I need to set up workspaces? How to do it in pytool build system? Thanque.

For newbie in EDK2 build please read this https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/blob/master/EmulatorPkg/PlatformCI/ReadMe.md

I am very grateful! You helped solve my problem. I used the old build system BaseTools instead of pytool build system. EDK2 wiki confuses newbie EDK developers.

Please make sure install WINSDK10

Liming, I can able to download the build tools for VS from https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/downloads/#build-tools-for-visual-studio-2019 I am facing a build error while building latest Basetools

Please don't use the binary base tools. They are not maintained. Before you build, please make sure EDK_TOOLS_BIN be not set. Thanks Liming

a lot more context is necessary to really help but if you look at our CI process you will see it building with VS2019 on Windows. Here is the very large build output of a recent CI build of emulator

Hello! I am trying to compile an EDK2 under Windows 10 using VS2019. When compiling, I get an error from the GenFFs utility which says that the option -oi is not valid. Here is part of the build

Liming, Thanks for the comments. I can understand. But VS is licensed one and EDKII is open-source. Can we avoid using VS tools or use any open source tools in EDKII source build system? Thank

The build step can refer to https://github.com/tianocore/tianocore.github.io/wiki/CLANG9-Tools-Chain#the-verbos-build-and-run-steps-in-windows This step is to build EDK2 with CLANGPDB tool chain.

Hello, Do we have steps to build the latest EDK II source? or any related reference link? Also can we build EDK II source without MS VisualStudio being installed in the system? In my windows machine,

Your "trick" is undefined behavior. EFI_SIMPLE_TEXT_INPUT_PROTOCOL is not a runtime protocol; you cannot use it after ExitBootServices(). TBH I don't understand your purpose. Why do you call

Hello, I am an amateur. I made a uefi app for reading some type of images (bmp os/2) and files in folders. That also provides mice and keyboard support. I did not use edk2 but gnu-efi later I will

It was very helpful. Thank you for your kindness!

This applies only to drivers that do not follow the UEFI Driver Model (considering the protocols that expose the driver's actual business). NvmExpressDxe is a UEFI_DRIVER that follows the UEFI Driver

https://github.com/tianocore/edk2-platforms/commit/8dd78ea11a38d2d7e8031c4783e9f2ca5569956b That was indeed the problem. I changed the RPI4 platform code to always connect to devices and regenerate
