Build an addon with extra resources files using the BuildAddOn.py script

[gcNamirial]

Hi! I've created an addon based on the template on github 

https://github.com/GRAPHISOFT/archicad-addon-cmake

I usually build it using the provided python script in the Tools folder and i didn't have issues until i needed to include some files inside the resources that are not images.

As in the Browser_Control example i add this definition in the AddOnFix.grc file 

'DATA' 100 "Browser Control Html" {
"index.html"
}

but when i build it doesn't see the file

\Build\NMSExport\27\INT\ResourceObjects\AddOnFix.grc.i (116) : Can't open file: i 
ndex.html (ResID: 100) 

i tried to copy the file in the ResourceObjects folder in the Build path, where the resource files are duplicated by the script before building but still it doesn't see it.

I guess that creating the project for Visual Studio and including the file manually it could work, but is there a way to fix this for the .py script?

Thanks

Hi!
You could try adding the folder containing the file to the CompileResources.py file. Specifically the self.addResourcesPaths property of the ResourceCompiler class. You need a semicolon ";" as a separator between paths.
Not sure if it works, but that's the first thing I'd try.
