[build2] Error message for output dir missing

[Moldmann Max (DC-MH/ENG52-NA)]

Hi Boris,

On Windows 10 with this line in the buildfile:

$out_base/_bin/exe{myproject.elf}: {c}{**}

I am always getting this error when I delete the "_bin" folder before executing build2:

> terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::ios_base::failure[abi:cxx11]'
>   what():  basic_ios::clear: iostream error
>
> This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
> Please contact the application's support team for more information.

I am unable to reproduce this. Can you be more specific about what "output directory is not existing" exactly means?

Thanks,
