@shaod2: I don't have significant C++ experience, and really don't have time to do anything for Protobuf beyond any vital C# work.

I'm guessing this might relate to how the environment was set up. The error was that the top-level src directory was not found.

Also, could you try a released version of the test?

@shaod2 I tried the latest release 796e49f, it failed to build due to below errors, seems the same issue as #16828.
