Hi folks,
I've been trying to compile CVSNT on Windows and seem to be flip flopping
between a handful of errors (that appear to be Platform SDK related) and
over 100 errors (when changing to a newer Platform SDK).
Checked out cvsnt-2.5.03.2382.
Checked out cvsdeps (head) & pointed CVSDEPS at it.
Tried
Microsoft Visual C++ .NET 69459-006-2660241-18279
Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003 Service Pack 1 (KB918007)
...on two machines
Tried
Microsoft Visual Studio 2005
Version 8.0.50727.762 (SP.050727-7600)
Microsoft .NET Framework
Version 2.0.50727 SP1
Installed Edition: VC Express
Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 76542-000-0000011-00125
Microsoft Visual C++ 2005
...on one machine
Initially on opening the solution I get "Cannot open
\lockservice\lockservice.vcproj", there is "cvslock.vcproj" in that
directory though.
Platform SDK = Windows Server 2003 R2
Aside from cvsapi and cvsservice this completes with a number of warnings.
Projects cvsapi and cvsservice seem to have incompatible structure and
function definitions with a few bits in the Platform SDK, and indeed one of
them has a comment above it saying if that line faults the SDK is out of
date.
The missing lib that should result leads to some later errors carried
forward.
3 questions
- I wouldn't expect to need to rename vcproj files to get it to work.
Does the version in CVS actually build? The reason for choosing this
version is that I have a binary (from Tortoise CVS client) that includes
it in its install.
- Is this the right SDK? The notes in "CompileOnWindows.txt" suggest so but
they could be out of date.
- Has anyone else got it to compile under either of these versions of Visual
Studio?
I only want to make a 1 line change, and would greatly appreciate any
pointers,
Sprow.
