cef_config.h No such file or directoryTraceback While build

[rover886]

I am trying to build CEF (branch 3770) using automated method mentioned at https://bitbucket.org/chromiumembedded/ ... ted-method

I am hitting command to download as:

C:\CEF>c:\Python27\python.exe automate-git.py --download-dir=c:\CEF\src --branch=3770 --force-clean --no-debug-build --no-build

After sometime process gets end with error:

Failed to copy file from c:\CEF\src\chromium\src\cef\include/cef_config.h to c:\
CEF\src\chromium\src\cef\binary_distrib\cef_binary_75.1.16+g16a67c4+chromium-75.

As error says, the file path c:\\CEF\\src\\chromium\\src\\cef\\include/cef_config.h is not found. So I checked the path the file is not their even if I check repo at https://bitbucket.org/chromiumembedded/ ... e/?at=3770 the cef_config.h file is not found.

Some info:

OS: Windows 7 64 Bit
VS: 2019
CEF branch: 3770

Why this error is coming? How to solve it?

You need to make a build before you can make a binary distribution. If you did not intend to make a binary distribution then add the --no-distrib command-line switch to automate-git.py.

Okay. Now I run command as

C:\CEF>c:\Python27\python.exe automate-git.py --download-dir=c:\CEF\src --branch=3770 --force-clean

Now Also I am getting new error:

Looks like ninja command is failing, but path to ninja.exe is in the Path variable.

Windows SDK is installed on default location i.e. C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10
But VS 2019 community edition (and VS 2010 is also installed) is installed on another location so I specified set GYP_MSVS_VERSION=2019 and set GYP_MSVS_OVERRIDE_PATH=E:\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Community

python's module win32file is not installed. After installing pywin32 module through pip solved this problem.
