[sldev] Re: building from src: Can't find settings_files.xml

[Lear Cale]

Thanks, Ambrosia :)

ALL_BUILD was the default project.  I changed it to secondlife-bin.

In properties for secondlife-bin, I don't see "working directory".
For "Configuration Properties -> General", I see
Output Directory (set to "RelWithDebInfo") and Intermediate Directory
(set to "secondife-bin/RelWithDebInfo).  Is that what you meant?

I get the same error, running this way.

Also, with 'secondlife-bin' selected as the default project, when I
"build solution", it builds nothing (skipping ALL_BUILD).

Thanks again,
Jeff
