Hello, @morevnaproject .
I want to solve this issue.

@harshvardhan-khachane

Sure, you can take it.

@ice0 While setting up the NetBeans IDE, in the last step (Setting up make configuration, https://synfig-docs-dev.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ide/NetBeans.html), the document says:-
Under Build -> make section change Build result so that it points to “_debug/build/bin/synfigstudio”:
But I need help finding the _debug file or the synfigstudio file in the repository. Please help me with this.

@harshvardhan-khachane

What OS you are using?

@ice0 I am using Windows

In that case you need to use CMake-Windows-MSYS2 toolchain.

https://synfig-docs-dev.readthedocs.io/en/latest/building/Preparing%20Environment.html

After environment is prepared you need to run:
1-setup-windows-msys2.sh to install all dependencies
and
2-build-msys-cmake.sh

After build is complete synfigstudio for NetBeans should be located in cmake-build-msys/output/Release/bin/synfigstudio.exe

Currently autotools build (which is used for netbeans tutorial) is broken, so I will do CMake+NetBeans instruction tomorrow.

After running the 2-build-msys-cmake.sh the system says : configure: error: unsafe srcdir value

Please attach the full build log

Here's the complete build log
Going to configure...

Are you sure you are running 2-build-msys-cmake.sh?
As I can see on the build log above you are using autotools build, not CMake.

This is working settings for CMake build:

${CMAKE} -GNinja -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=${IDE_CC} -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=${IDE_CXX}  -DCMAKE_EXPORT_COMPILE_COMMANDS=ON .. -DCMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM=C:\msys64\mingw64\bin\ninja.exe -DMSYS=1 ..

Hey @ice0, As I am a Newbie, I am a bit confused could you please help me with this.
As the issue said: Still, there are more getenv() calls remaining. It would be nice to replace them, especially in render engine parts.
I replaced the getenv() calls with with DEBUG_GETENV(). If I may have gone wrong could you please guide me with the right thing.

@harshvardhan-khachane
Hi!
It's not just a find and replace task.
You need to separate the environment variables that are used for debugging purposes and the environment variables that are required for Synfig to work correctly.
This issue is good for getting familiar with the code, but it's still important to understand what's going on.
You can skip it if you like and try again later.

i can give it a shot
