fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'libboost_thread-vc100

[polyfrag]

I get the following error in Visual Studio 2010 Express:

fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'libboost_thread-vc100-mt-s-1_46.lib'

Where do I get libboost_thread-vc100-mt-s-1_46.lib?

Or do I have to use Visual Studio 2008 Express?

[polyfrag]

2008 Express can't find 'omp.h'.

You need the VCLibs package of libraries. I don't know if one for VC10 was distributed, and it's not regularly maintained as Visual Studio isn't officially supported...

Where do I place the .exe after it's finished?

It says

Failed to load font: fonts/FreeSansBold.otf

Since MSVC does not build the full installer, Easiest for you is to pick an installer built with MingW, and install it. Pick one as new as possible.

Then just replace the exe.

you've to create the folder fonts and copy cont/fonts/FreeSansBold.otf to it. spring doesn't check this dir when run from where it was compiled.


(or run make install)
