kobake / bitcoin-msvc Goto Github PK

Hello,

I sent you a message on NuGet a couple of years ago. I'm glad you like the NuGet packaging that I created and got some use out of it. But in posting nearly identical NuGet packages with the same naming convention that I was using, the namespace has become conflicted.

Some examples:

https://www.nuget.org/packages?q=secp256k1
https://www.nuget.org/packages?q=libzmq

I switched from underscores to hyphens in an attempt to work around your secp256k1 packages that used my naming convention, but you were the hyphen convention in another secp256k1 package as well. So both of us have confusing naming inconsistencies.

I've documented the version history and namespace conflicts here. Please contact me directly so that we might work it out.

Best,
Eric

Hi Kobake, thank you for porting bitcoin source to visual studio, but can you provide extern library this project needed?
bitcoin is writtern by may posix interfaces, so when you hit compile button, it won't work because windows doesn't include any posix headers... many errors appear.
Do I need cygwin or mingw?
Any guide or steps on how to build this in VS 2017 ?

After trying to build bitcoin-core for the entire day on Win10/VS2017 I finally gave up. I was excited to see this project and gave it a shot.

When building latest on Win10, VS2017 (15.2 (26430.16)) I get compat.h(35): fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'sys/fcntl.h': No such file or directory. I tried changing the Windows SDK target to 10 instead of 8.1, but that produced the same error.

同じ意味なのでは…？

Hi Team,

First off, great work on this project! When compiling in VS CE 2017, I get this NuGet error message:

Error This project references NuGet package(s) that are missing on this computer. ... The missing file is packages\boost.1.63.0.0\build\native\boost.targets. _bitcoin_common D:\dev\bitcoin\bitcoin-msvc-original-master-merge_bitcoin_common.vcxproj 545

Upon tracking down the configs in the <packages.config> file, and comparing those to, for example, <_bitcoin_common.vcxproj>, there seems to be a conflict: <packages.config> refrences boost.targ for 1.67, whereas all project files reference boost 1.63.

Is this a true error, or am I misunderstanding this setup? In any case, it breaks my compilation efforts.

Thanks in advance for your input!

Does test_bitcoin work properly for you?

After building the solution on Win10 and running test_bitcoin.exe I get some assert failures and then it appears to hang (I haven't debugged it as yet). I'm wondering if this could be related to my build environment or whether it's a common problem introduced by the msvc build?

If I build the bitcoin code using mingw and execute the test_bitcoin.exe produced by it it runs correctly with no errors.
