1669004 - Unable to build after updating Visual Studio

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1657913

(Firefox Build System :: General, defect)

Description

[Donovan Thompson]

Attachment: output.txt

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:83.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/83.0

Steps to reproduce:

• I updated Visual Studio to version 16.7.5
• Afterwards I'm unable to build with ./mach build
• At first I thought it was because I made a change to the code that was breaking the build, but even with hg update -C and ./mach clobber, the issue still happens. This tells me that the Visual Studio update was the cause.

Actual results:

Here is the output of running ./mach build

Expected results:

A completed build.

Yes, run |./mach bootstrap| to pick up a newer Clang.
