Adding visual studio compiler to buildbot.

[abma]

ideally don't touch it atm, else fixing will be difficult for me.

[abma]

now i need your help as i can't easily test this:

how do i compile spring from console?

it seems to basicly work, but idk how to compile it on the console:

do i need to use nmake, msbuild, ...?

if so, what parameter is needed for cmake -G ... ?

can ninja be used to compile? if so, how to invoke cmake correctly?

do i have to run vcvars.bat?

[Super Mario]

Try it again. I had restart it with running the vcvarsall.bat file. You should have access to nmake and msbuild now.
Try configure cmake for nmake, or type "msbuild (name of solution) " in order for it to run.

just to make sure.

ok, thanks, that helped. i prefer ninja for compile and it seems to basicly work now.

do you get the same errors when compiling with the gui?

Check to see if that's a gcc extension.

that doesn't answer my question. i only want to know if i'm using the correct compiler (leading to the same errors) :)

I'm pretty sure that you are. Judging from the cmake cache.

Is there any thing else you want me to do? I need to turn off the build slave, before I went to sleep as I'm using my personal computer for this.

basicly no, help fixing errors maybe? :)

hu? now i'm getting "strnlen is missing". an idea whats wrong?

[Super Mario]

I'm going to restart it.
Here a documentation for it on vc just in case.

oh, i think i got it. it seems the buildbot wasn't started with vcvars.bat run before its start. can you please restart the buildslave after vcvars.bat was run?

and yes, this is a must. env has always be the same or the build will randomly fail.

I'm pretty sure that the env is the same now. Can you regenerate the ninja build with cmake? It not finding it currently, as it isn't there. In the build/default I mean.

[abma]

no, env is still different:

vs

i.e. INCLUDE is missing (which is set by vcvars.bat)

when its troublesome to start this before buildslave start, i can try to add it to the buildbot master config?

[Super Mario]

I have create a working short cut for the vars. It should work now.

You need to include windows.h file before the gl.h. I have tried doing this on my end before, and I still got a errors even though I have greatly reduce the amount of errors.

FYI: with the most recent changes i'm done for a longer time with trying to fix msvc compile as i have several other stuff to do which are imo more important. i hope you or someone else can pick this up and continue fixing msvc compile. idk how far away a working msvc compile is, thats not predictable atm imo. but i think the fixes you and me did are already a big step forward.
