Error building for nwjs about node-libcurl HOT 5 CLOSED

Hi, I'm really busy this week, so I cannot work on this issue right now. I compiled the addon to nw some time ago, and probably some stuff changed that is causing this issue.

Hi,

Thanks for prompt response.

I didn't dig into deep but I think it's something with openSSL and it's linkage with curl library.

I'll try to do some debuging, and let you know. If you can help with superficial explanation of "some stuff changed" maybe I can find the origin of the error.

Thank you

Found temporary workaround.

1. npm install node-libcurl
2. node-gyp rebuild --target=0.12.3
3. Open project in Visual Studio 2015 (I think it is going to work with 2013 the same)
4. In VS project solution replace dependency lib .node.gyp/Release/node.lib with .nw.gyp/Release/nw.lib and build solution
5. Replace node-libcurl\lib\binding\node_libcurl.node with newly built file

WORKING with nwjs 0.12.3

Now testing for unexpected behaviour, but seems that all the tests are working fine.

Hi, I finally had time to look into this, and I found the issue.

nw-gyp bundles an outdated version of gyp which doesn't support the if-else conditions syntax being used in the openssl.gyp here https://github.com/JCMais/curl-for-windows/blob/master/openssl/openssl.gyp#L69.

The way to fix that is to update the gyp version manually, you can do that downloading it from this repo: https://github.com/bnoordhuis/gyp and placing it in the gyp folder inside the nw-gyp folder. (nw-gyp is probably installed globally, so you need to look up where it's).

Them there is still one more thing to do, you need to disable the compiler WarnAsError flag for this addon, do so in the node-libcurl/bindings.gyp file.

After that rebuild the addon, run this from the addon folder: node_modules\.bin\node-pre-gyp rebuild --runtime=node-webkit --target=0.15.0-rc2 --arch=x64

Great,

Thx
