In https://github.com/robotology/funny-things/commit/6637f682c25e3d3656d49b5a954169601973f459 I've streamlined a little bit the cmake code but nothing really to address this failure.

Configuring+building+installing worked just fine on my Windows with VS 2019 and CMake 3.16.3. Required further inspection.

pattacini commented 4 years ago

This is the piece of cmake code responsible for copying out scripts in Release/Debug: https://github.com/robotology/funny-things/blob/6637f682c25e3d3656d49b5a954169601973f459/app/CMakeLists.txt#L16-L21

This is a quite steady snippet, which is also used in other repos. Thus, isn't there any difference on the GH runner wrt a standard building environment that could explain this failure?

traversaro commented 4 years ago

Did you try to compile/install the project in both Debug and Release mode? The GH failure is happening in Debug.

pattacini commented 4 years ago

Yep, working both in Release and Debug.

pattacini commented 4 years ago

@traversaro can we consider this solved?

traversaro commented 4 years ago

Unfortunately not, I plan to work on this in the next few days.

traversaro commented 4 years ago

I reproduced the problem locally. It does not appear if the target are executed each one manually as in cmake --build . --config Release --target copy_lua_in_build, but it appears instead if you run on a clean build cmake --build . --config Release.
