    As part of my build I am testing the scriptengine. As a first test I am trying to compile a template project from the project wizard for a WinControlV3 device. When I build the project from the same machine I generated the project I dont have a problem.

    Script

    # encoding:utf-8
from __future__ import print_function

import argparse
import os

parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
parser.add_argument("project", help="Path to Codesys Project")
args = vars(parser.parse_args())

if not os.path.isfile(args["project"]):
    raise ValueError(args["project"]+ ' is not a file!')

proj=projects.open(args["project"])
application = proj.active_application
application.generate_code()
proj.close()

    However, in my build server with CODESYS v3.5.16.0 I run the same script and I get the following:

    Build: Text: C0: ------ Build started: Application: Device.Application -------
Build: Text: C0: Typify code...
Build: Warning: C100: Library BreakpointLogging has not been added to the Library Manager, or no valid license could be found

    Both development and build computer have CODESYS v3.5 SP16 (3.5.16.0) installed. What I also noticed is that the libraries are not detected correctly if I create the project directly from the project Wizard. I have to delete the library manager,create it again and add the libraries IoStandard, Standard and CAA Device Diagnosis otherwise I get the following error before the last one I mentioned above:

    Any help or guidance on this issue is appreciated as I would expect that the project I create in another computer with the same software would be able to be opened and compiled but there seems to be something that I am missing. As I am not an expert on the Codesys Toolchain maybe someone who has more experience could shed some light on the matter.

    Hello. I am facing the same issue with "Error: C46: Identifier 'concat' not defined" in my code. @vcbz, Did you find a solution?
