Issue building esp-idf

[mfiumara]

Hi,

First of all thanks for the effort in creating embuild! I have been trying to use it to compile the example template application at https://github.com/esp-rs/esp-idf-template but I'm having some issues. When compiling I get the following error:

I'm not sure where to start looking, I have installed clang and installed rust using rustup,:

PS C:\Users\matti\Documents\repos\wireprobe-rs> rustc --version
rustc 1.65.0-nightly (fa6ee9375 2022-09-12)
PS C:\Users\matti\Documents\repos\wireprobe-rs> clang --version
clang version 15.0.0
Target: x86_64-pc-windows-msvc
Thread model: posix
InstalledDir: C:\Program Files\LLVM\bin

Any ideas where to start looking?

Shooting in the dark but can you sborten the name of your project, put it in drive C root and try again?

Oh wow that actually worked. Is this a Windows feature? :P

I'll close this ticket thanks for the response!

Windows has a limit on path length and when file paths cross this limit weird issues like that start popping up. Not related to Rust dev.
