Re: [edk2-buildtools] Build system puts out crazy error if a file name contains a -

[Andrew F. <af...@ap...>]

Qing,

It looks like it is not a generic problem?

I don't get a trace. I get this error.

build.py...
: error 0001: File open failure
	/Users/fish/work/Raven/XPkg/libh/h/eth
	[Errno 21] Is a directory

It looks like the makefile generation dependency code (Not the EFI DEPEX) is building the list of .h files that a .c file depends on. This is one of the files:
/Users/fish/work/Raven/XPkg/libh/h/eth-phy/EthPhy.h that should be depended on and it seems to generate the error.

This directory exists in the tree.
/Users/fish/work/Raven/XPkg/libh/h/eth

and that is why we get the error message about it being a directory. But internally the tool had dir path, when it should have had a path to an include file.
