cannot run the project on on "Windows 7"... #38

Open kabramyan opened 8 years ago

kabramyan commented 8 years ago

Hello, I got a task very close to solution I fount in GitHub for using SVG files for mapping path "from/to" specified room inside a building. I'd downloaded and open the files(project: https://github.com/ucdavis/wayfinding) on my "Windows 7" machine, but when I build it I'm getting error: The specified path, file name, or both are too long. The fully qualified file name must be less than 260 characters, and the directory name must be less than 248 characters.

Is there compatible to Windows 7 version of the project or there is a work around I can apply to make it work?

Thanks

It was written on a Windows 7 machine. What was the path you were using to the base folder?

Hello, I download the zip and put it under C:\SVG\wayfinding-master folder, Then I tried to run it from VS 2015: File->Open->Web-Site and pointed it to the path above. The project opens with no issues until I build it or trying to run, I'm getting the described error:

The specified path, file name, or both are too long. The fully qualified file name must be less than 260 characters, and the directory name must be less than 248 characters.

It may be possible to use VS2015 to work with the code, but this repository is a grunt based npm project for developing the "jquery.wayfinding.min.js" file which can be used in other projects. It isn't a stand alone website other than that the test directory has fixtures for running tests. The raw code can be found in the src folder as "jquery.wayfinding.js"
