Vendor folder not present #44

Closed AlexandruIstrate closed 5 years ago

AlexandruIstrate commented 5 years ago

I have noticed that the vendor folder, at the solution's root is missing. It's the folder supposed to contain premake5.exe, which gets called by the GenerateProjects.bat file, in order to create the Visual Studio project files. I was curious whether it's like this on purpose, or whether the .gitignore hides it, by accident, by specifying bin/ as an ignored directory. Without the premake executable, you have to download it and then put it in the required folder, in order to be able to generate the project files.

You must download premake for your system. The modules are missing when a regular git clone <URL> is executed. You must run git clone --recursive <URL> to populate the submodule directories. I added these instructions and more in the Linux support pull request #27 .

So it's because you have to download the Premake binary for your platform. I understand.
