When I tried to install an addon the AttributeError “‘_RetricContext’ object has no attribute ‘user_preferences'” occurred.
“user_preference” has changed in ver2.80 due to massive specification change. Check Blender Python API Document for details.
error MSB8020: The build tools for v140 (Platform Toolset = ‘v140’) cannot be found. To build using the v140 build tools, please install v140 build tools. Alternatively, you may upgrade to the current Visual Studio tools by selecting the Project menu or right-click the solution, and then selecting “Retarget solution”.
The required version of build tool for building solution is different from the version of build tool on your environment.
Retarget the solution. Right click on the solution and click the “Retarget solution”. Select the version of build tool required.
fatal error C1181: cannot open input file ‘~~.lib
Visual Studio can’t find library named ‘~~.lib’
There is truly no library with such a name because of misspelling or missing in file path.
Visual Studio can’t read the directory where ‘~~.lib’ is in. Check the include file. Open properties of the project and check “Additional Library Directories”.
Right click the project name on Solution explorer and open Properties.
Add the directory that contains the library into Linker > General >Additional Library Directories”.
If the target directory already exists in Additional Library Directories list, check Configuration and the build environment. If they are different, change the configuration and add the library to Additional Library Directories again.
Cannot open include file: ‘<FILE_NAME>’: No such file or directory
Visual Studio can’t find the include file named FILE_NAME.
There is truly no file with such a name because of misspelling, mistake for file extension or missing in file path. Compare the name and path of the include file to your code.
Visual Studio can’t read the directory where FILE_NAME is in. Check the include file. Open properties of the project and check “Additional Include Directories”.
Right click the project name on Solution explorer and open Properties.
Add the directory that contains the include file into C/C++ >Additional Include Directories”.
If the target directory already exists in Additional Include Directories list, check Configuration and the build environment. If they are different, change the configuration and add the include folder to Additional Include Directories again.
