Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!

Python 3.9 is installed and added to the path. I was able to build Audacity by cloning from github folder but it builds 3.4.x-alpha but I want 3.3.3 so I downloaded the source code from github 3.3.3 release and tried to build it when I faced the error.

Am I missing anything? please help.

I see you have already posted on Discord for Audacity Developers. Perhaps the best channel there for assistance is #dev-channel: Audacity dev

Typically developer and compilation questions are answered there.

Note that for some reason, the developers don’t see compilation issues as “emergencies”. Also note that most of the developers are in a different time zone and likely have already gone home for the day. While you are waiting for a reply you might scroll back through the #dev-channel history. Perhaps someone else has already run into this difficulty.

thank you for the response, I will wait and see if anyone replies.

Regards,
Bobin.

Check that you have the version of Conan specified in the 3.3.3 build instructions.

Hi Steve,

Yes the conan version was the problem. Thank you it worked.

@steve / @jademan

I am trying to debug Audacity 3.3.3 and tried to send some string using wxLogDebug but its not logging. I understand that it works only during debug mode, but I think its disabled during the customized build. Anything that I can do to enable logging.

See the " BUILDING.md" instructions for how to make Debug and Release builds.

Thanks Steve. eventhough I am able to debug audacity, How I can pass String using wxlogDebug to the Audacity log.

Debugging a wx app is normally done by running a debug build in a debugger and raising debug messages in the debug window using wxLogDebug().
This is most likely what you need if you’re trying to debug the code.

Audacity’s log window is different. It does not require a debug build. wxLogMessage is used to write to the debug window. This isn’t really intended as a normal debugging tool, but rather a way of logging user interaction, such as which importer was used to import a file.
